After Action Report
The Trail Blazers rolled past the Pacers 116-87. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. The Trail Blazers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Trail Blazers pushed the pace until the other side broke. Pacers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- 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.
