After Action Report

The 76ers fended off the Bucks 96-88. The Bucks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the 76ers. Fresh off a statement win, the Bucks stayed locked in; the Bucks pushed the pace until the other side broke. Whispers of a Bucks locker-room rift aren't helping. The Bucks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Bucks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Bucks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
