After Action Report
The Pacers ran roughshod over the SuperSonics 121-90. The Pacers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Pacers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Pacers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Tonight's SuperSonics utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
