After Action Report

The Pacers squeaked past the Jazz 118-113. Pacers' offense had its way with the Jazz. The Pacers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Pacers bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Pacers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
