After Action Report
The Pacers outlasted the Nuggets 112-104. The better team simply showed up tonight. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pacers sent shots into the fifth row all night. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- 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 · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Nuggets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
