After Action Report
The Pacers snuck past the Bucks 99-98. Ugly basketball, but the Pacers did just enough. The Pacers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Bucks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
