After Action Report

The 76ers blew the doors off the Celtics 116-95. The better team simply showed up tonight. The 76ers looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; second-chance points piled up for the Celtics. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the 76ers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
