After Action Report

The Pacers snuck past the Trail Blazers 106-103. The better team simply showed up tonight. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pacers carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Trail Blazers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Trail Blazers · 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 · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
