After Action Report

The 76ers held off the Magic 126-119. The tempo dragged the Magic into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The 76ers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the 76ers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. 76ers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
