After Action Report

The Pacers survived the 76ers 117-116 in overtime. The 76ers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pacers couldn't shake the cold spell.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pacers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • 76ers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • 76ers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
