After Action Report

The Lakers knocked off the Pacers 106-98. The better team simply showed up tonight. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pacers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Pacers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
