After Action Report
The 76ers ran roughshod over the Knicks 143-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the 76ers cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the 76ers; the 76ers came in with something to prove after a loss. The Knicks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The 76ers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- 76ers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- 76ers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Knicks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
