After Action Report
The Pacers held off the SuperSonics 99-92. The Pacers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Pacers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Pacers' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
