After Action Report
The 76ers demolished the Grizzlies 132-112. The tempo dragged the Grizzlies into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The 76ers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; 76ers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. 76ers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
