After Action Report

The Pacers upended the Rockets 112-88. Every possession went the Pacers way. The Pacers carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; shots just aren't falling for the Rockets lately. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Pacers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. An upset for the books.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
