After Action Report
The Pacers buried the Nets 112-87. The Nets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Pacers. The Pacers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Nets are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Nets locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Nets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Nets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Pacers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
