After Action Report

The 76ers squeaked past the Nets 119-118. The tempo dragged the Nets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The 76ers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the 76ers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them. 76ers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

  • 76ers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
