After Action Report

In Golden State, the Warriors squeaked past the Pacers 90-89. The Warriors won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Second-chance points piled up for the Pacers; Pacers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Pacers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Pacers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
