After Action Report
The Trail Blazers survived the Pacers 98-97. The Pacers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Trail Blazers. The Trail Blazers bench chemistry carried them. Trail Blazers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
