After Action Report
In Indiana, the Pacers held off the Spurs 106-100. The Spurs couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Pacers. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Spurs' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Spurs' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
