After Action Report
The Pacers demolished the Hornets 110-83. Pacers torched the Hornets on the offensive end. Pacers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Pacers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
