After Action Report
In a track meet, the Pacers stunned the Rockets 109-96. The tempo dragged the Rockets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Shots just aren't falling for the Pacers lately; the Pacers pushed the pace until the other side broke. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Rockets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
