After Action Report

The Pacers fended off the SuperSonics 109-101. Pacers' offense had its way with the SuperSonics. The Pacers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Pacers carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
