After Action Report
In a track meet, the Pacers handled the Bulls 137-123. Pacers' scorers couldn't be contained. The Pacers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Pacers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Bulls rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
