After Action Report

The Pacers ran roughshod over the Rockets 114-82. Pacers' scorers couldn't be contained. Shots just aren't falling for the Pacers lately; Pacers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Rockets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Pacers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
