After Action Report

In Indiana, the Magic blew the doors off the Pacers 115-87. The tempo dragged the Pacers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Magic carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Pacers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Pacers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Magic · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
