After Action Report
In Indiana, the Pacers rolled past the Rockets 128-86. Pacers' offense had its way with the Rockets. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Pacers; shots just aren't falling for the Rockets lately. The Rockets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
