After Action Report
The Pacers survived the Cavaliers 99-97. Pacers torched the Cavaliers on the offensive end. The Pacers came in with something to prove after a loss; Pacers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Cavaliers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.
