After Action Report
In Indiana, the Pacers squeaked past the Bulls 98-97. Ugly basketball, but the Pacers did just enough. Pacers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
