After Action Report
The 76ers squeaked past the Cavaliers 107-105. Ugly basketball, but the 76ers did just enough. The 76ers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The 76ers locker room is humming, and it showed. 76ers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
