The Pacers squeaked past the Nets 120-116. The breakneck pace played right into Pacers' hands. The Pacers pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Nets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them. The Pacers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
