After Action Report

The Pacers buried the Nets 130-110. The Nets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pacers steamroller is in full effect right now. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Pacers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Nets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pacers · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
