After Action Report

The Pacers snuck past the Lakers 118-113. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
