After Action Report
The Nets demolished the Pacers 138-89. Nets torched the Pacers on the offensive end. Nets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Nets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Pacers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- 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.
