After Action Report

In Indiana, the Pacers ran roughshod over the Magic 104-82. The Magic couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Pacers. The Pacers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; shots just aren't falling for the Magic lately. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Magic · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
