After Action Report

In a track meet, the 76ers edged the Pacers 118-110. 76ers torched the Pacers on the offensive end. Second-chance points piled up for the 76ers; the 76ers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the 76ers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
