After Action Report
The Pacers snuck past the Magic 118-117. The Pacers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pacers pushed the pace until the other side broke.
What tipped it
- Magic · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
