After Action Report

The 76ers squeaked past the Pistons 122-118. 76ers torched the Pistons on the offensive end. The 76ers pushed the pace until the other side broke; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Pistons. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the 76ers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.
