After Action Report
The Pacers survived the Cavaliers 112-107. The Cavaliers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Pacers. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pacers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pacers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
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 · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
