After Action Report

In Philadelphia, the Nets ran roughshod over the 76ers 128-100. The Nets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Nets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; shots just aren't falling for the 76ers lately. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
