After Action Report
The 76ers rolled past the Hornets 123-97. 76ers torched the Hornets on the offensive end. 76ers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the 76ers. The Hornets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- 76ers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- 76ers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
