After Action Report
The Pacers outlasted the Celtics 104-96. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Celtics carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Celtics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
