After Action Report
The Pacers handled the Kings 143-126. The breakneck pace played right into Pacers' hands. The Pacers steamroller is in full effect right now; Pacers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

- Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
