After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics outlasted the Pacers 108-100 in overtime. The Celtics won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Celtics pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Pacers couldn't shake the cold spell. The Pacers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Pacers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
