After Action Report
The Pacers outlasted the 76ers 107-94. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Pacers came in with something to prove after a loss; Pacers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

- 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Pacers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
