After Action Report

The Pacers snuck past the Nuggets 105-102. The better team simply showed up tonight. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Nuggets are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Nuggets locker-room rift aren't helping.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
