After Action Report

The 76ers buried the Hornets 138-103. The tempo dragged the Hornets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The 76ers pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Hornets sent shots into the fifth row all night. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Hornets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Hornets · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
  • Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
