After Action Report

The 76ers squeaked past the Nets 99-96. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Nets looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; Nets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the 76ers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.
