After Action Report

The Pacers buried the Trail Blazers 132-107. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Pacers; the Pacers carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Trail Blazers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.

  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
