After Action Report
In a track meet, the Pacers blew the doors off the Suns 132-97. Pacers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Pacers came in with something to prove after a loss; the Pacers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Suns looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Suns rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
