After Action Report
In Indiana, the Pacers blew the doors off the Warriors 117-76. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pacers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Pacers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
