After Action Report
In Indiana, the Pacers snuck past the Raptors 93-90. The Pacers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Pacers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Raptors looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Raptors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
