After Action Report

The Pacers survived the Celtics 118-114. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. Pacers' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pacers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Celtics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
