After Action Report
The Pacers buried the Trail Blazers 126-105. Pacers' offense had its way with the Trail Blazers. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pacers came in with something to prove after a loss. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Pacers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
