After Action Report
The Pacers edged the 76ers 106-99. Ugly basketball, but the Pacers did just enough. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pacers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them. The 76ers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.
