After Action Report
The Pacers held off the Cavaliers 108-100. The Pacers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Fresh off a statement win, the Pacers stayed locked in; Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
