After Action Report

The Pacers took care of the Nets 124-113. The Pacers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Pacers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Pacers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
