After Action Report

The 76ers ran roughshod over the Cavaliers 121-100. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the 76ers cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the 76ers; the 76ers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • 76ers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
