After Action Report
The Pacers edged the Bulls 100-93. Ugly basketball, but the Pacers did just enough. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Bulls ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Pacers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
