After Action Report
The Celtics survived the Pacers 117-115. The Pacers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss; Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
