After Action Report

The 76ers blew the doors off the Raptors 135-80. 76ers torched the Raptors on the offensive end. Second-chance points piled up for the 76ers; the 76ers came in with something to prove after a loss. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the 76ers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.

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.
  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
