After Action Report
The Pacers snuck past the Wizards 127-123. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Pacers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Wizards' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
