After Action Report

The Pacers pulled away from the Lakers 92-80. Ugly basketball, but the Pacers did just enough. Shots just aren't falling for the Pacers lately; the Lakers couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a Lakers locker-room rift aren't helping. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Pacers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
