After Action Report

The Pacers snuck past the Celtics 119-118. The Celtics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Pacers pushed the pace until the other side broke; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them. The Pacers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.

What tipped it
