After Action Report
In Philadelphia, the 76ers buried the Celtics 139-115. The 76ers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The 76ers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
