After Action Report
In Indiana, the Pacers survived the Cavaliers 120-118. Pacers torched the Cavaliers on the offensive end. The Pacers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Pacers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Pacers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
