After Action Report
The Pacers blew the doors off the 76ers 125-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. The Pacers bent the defense out of shape from deep; the 76ers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Early returns: the Pacers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
