After Action Report

The Pacers squeaked past the Nets 127-125. The Pacers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pacers sent shots into the fifth row all night. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them.

  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pacers · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
  • 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.
