After Action Report
The Pacers blew the doors off the Bulls 140-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Pacers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
