After Action Report

In Indiana, the Pacers rolled past the Jazz 133-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pacers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Pacers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Jazz · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
