The Suns squeaked past the Pacers 106-103. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Suns ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; second-chance points piled up for the Pacers. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
