After Action Report

The 76ers survived the Hornets 114-111. 76ers' scorers couldn't be contained. 76ers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; shots just aren't falling for the 76ers lately. The Hornets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Hornets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 76ers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Hornets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
