After Action Report
In a track meet, the Pacers demolished the Cavaliers 127-100. Pacers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Pacers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Pacers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
