After Action Report
The Pacers blew the doors off the Hawks 110-84. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. Shots just aren't falling for the Pacers lately; Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Pacers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
