After Action Report
The Pacers outlasted the Heat 106-91. The Pacers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Pacers' outside barrage was a constant threat; the Heat pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
