After Action Report

In Indiana, the Pacers survived the SuperSonics 104-99. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Pacers couldn't shake the cold spell; Pacers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The SuperSonics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. SuperSonics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
