After Action Report

The 76ers outlasted the Spurs 117-111. The breakneck pace played right into 76ers' hands. The 76ers pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Spurs bent the defense out of shape from deep. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Spurs utilization choices clashed with the team identity.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
