After Action Report
In Indiana, the Pistons rolled past the Pacers 135-103. The Pacers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Pistons; Pacers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Pacers locker-room rift aren't helping. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- 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.
- Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
