After Action Report
The Pacers rolled past the Timberwolves 121-93. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pacers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Pacers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
