After Action Report
The Spurs blew the doors off the Pacers 123-87. The Spurs got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Spurs played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Spurs · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
