After Action Report

The 76ers squeaked past the Clippers 125-124. The breakneck pace played right into 76ers' hands. The 76ers pushed the pace until the other side broke; second-chance points piled up for the Clippers. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the 76ers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
