After Action Report
The Bucks downed the Pacers 108-97. Bucks torched the Pacers on the offensive end. Bucks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pacers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Whispers of a Pacers locker-room rift aren't helping. Pacers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Pacers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Bucks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
