After Action Report
The Magic handled the Pacers 97-84. Magic's scorers couldn't be contained. Magic's old heads steadied the ship in the swings; the Pacers couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a Pacers locker-room rift aren't helping. Pacers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
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.
- Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
