After Action Report
The 76ers blew the doors off the Celtics 135-100. The tempo dragged the Celtics into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The 76ers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; 76ers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. 76ers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
