After Action Report
The Suns pulled away from the Pacers 107-96. Ugly basketball, but the Suns did just enough. The Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Suns bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pacers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
