After Action Report
In a track meet, the 76ers held off the Celtics 101-94. The breakneck pace played right into 76ers' hands. The 76ers came in with something to prove after a loss; 76ers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Whispers of a Celtics locker-room rift aren't helping. Survive-and-advance type win.
