After Action Report

In Philadelphia, the 76ers upended the Celtics 146-110. The breakneck pace played right into 76ers' hands. The 76ers carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; fresh off a statement win, the Celtics stayed locked in. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Celtics · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
