After Action Report
In Indiana, the Pacers blew the doors off the 76ers 118-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pacers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pacers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
