After Action Report
The Pacers snuck past the Rockets 98-94. The Rockets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Pacers. Second-chance points piled up for the Rockets; Rockets' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
