After Action Report

The Pacers rolled past the Nets 117-88. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pacers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pacers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
