After Action Report
In Indiana, the Nets fended off the Pacers 120-114. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. The Nets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Pacers utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
