After Action Report
The Pacers outlasted the Spurs 102-96. The Spurs couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Pacers. The Pacers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Spurs' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Pacers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Spurs · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
