After Action Report

In Indiana, the Pacers blew the doors off the Nets 114-81. Every possession went the Pacers way. Fresh off a statement win, the Pacers stayed locked in; second-chance points piled up for the Nets. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
