After Action Report

The 76ers buried the Magic 134-109. The Magic had no answer for the variance gods tonight. 76ers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; second-chance points piled up for the Magic. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the 76ers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • Magic · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Magic · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
