After Action Report

The Pacers ran roughshod over the Spurs 130-86. Pacers torched the Spurs on the offensive end. Second-chance points piled up for the Pacers; the Pacers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Spurs looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Spurs' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Pacers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
