After Action Report

In Indiana, the Pacers outlasted the Jazz 125-116. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. The Pacers carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; the Pacers bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
