After Action Report
The Pacers buried the Knicks 101-81. The Pacers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Knicks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Knicks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
