After Action Report

The Pacers outlasted the Pistons 125-115. The tempo dragged the Pistons into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Pacers. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Pacers · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
