After Action Report

The 76ers squeaked past the Rockets 117-115. 76ers torched the Rockets on the offensive end. 76ers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the 76ers came in with something to prove after a loss. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them. Rockets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 76ers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
