After Action Report

In a track meet, the 76ers buried the Hornets 133-111. The tempo dragged the Hornets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. 76ers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Hornets couldn't shake the cold spell. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. 76ers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
