After Action Report
In Indiana, the Pacers demolished the Nets 116-82. The Pacers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Pacers came in with something to prove after a loss; the Nets are in a full-on tailspin. The Nets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Nets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Nets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
