After Action Report
The Pacers blew the doors off the Bulls 110-90. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Pacers; the Pacers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Bulls rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Pacers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
