After Action Report
The Pacers took care of the Bulls 129-115. The Bulls had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; shots just aren't falling for the Pacers lately. The Bulls rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- 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.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
