After Action Report
The 76ers outlasted the Cavaliers 106-99. 76ers' offense had its way with the Cavaliers. The 76ers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the 76ers looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- 76ers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- 76ers · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
