After Action Report
In Philadelphia, the 76ers fended off the Hawks 109-103. The 76ers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The 76ers came in with something to prove after a loss; 76ers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Hawks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.
