After Action Report

The Pacers fended off the Heat 123-115. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Pacers. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pacers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.

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.
  • Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
