After Action Report

The Pacers blew the doors off the Rockets 128-91. The Rockets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pacers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
