After Action Report

In Indiana, the Pacers snuck past the Nets 105-104. The Pacers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Nets. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Nets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Nets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
