The Pacers took care of the Hornets 126-111. The Pacers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Pacers bent the defense out of shape from deep; the Hornets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
