After Action Report

The Pacers fended off the Pistons 103-96. The Pacers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pacers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them. Pistons' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pacers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
