After Action Report
The Pacers survived the Bulls 120-115. The Pacers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Pacers bent the defense out of shape from deep; the Bulls answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Pacers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
