After Action Report
The Raptors ran roughshod over the Pacers 138-96. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Raptors cashed in. The Raptors carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Pacers are in a full-on tailspin. The Pacers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Raptors rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
