After Action Report
The Pacers ran roughshod over the Celtics 127-102. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. The Pacers steamroller is in full effect right now; Pacers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Pacers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- 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.
