After Action Report
The Pacers rolled past the Cavaliers 116-96. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. Pacers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; the Cavaliers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
