After Action Report
In Indiana, the Pacers downed the Bulls 105-91. The Pacers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pacers came in with something to prove after a loss. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Bulls utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
