After Action Report

The Pacers demolished the Cavaliers 117-93. The Cavaliers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Pacers. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pacers looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pacers · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
