After Action Report

In Philadelphia, the 76ers snuck past the Trail Blazers 118-116. 76ers' offense had its way with the Trail Blazers. 76ers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the 76ers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Trail Blazers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 76ers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Trail Blazers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Trail Blazers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
