After Action Report
The Pacers outlasted the Lakers 123-114. Pacers torched the Lakers on the offensive end. The Pacers carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Lakers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
