After Action Report

The 76ers outlasted the Mavericks 107-98. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The 76ers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Mavericks' outside barrage was a constant threat. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them. 76ers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
