After Action Report
In Philadelphia, the 76ers buried the Cavaliers 145-104. 76ers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. 76ers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Cavaliers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Cavaliers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- 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.
