After Action Report
The Pacers took care of the Rockets 113-103. Pacers' offense had its way with the Rockets. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Rockets. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Rockets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
