After Action Report
In Boston, the Pacers pulled away from the Celtics 121-108. The tempo dragged the Celtics into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Pacers are in a full-on tailspin; Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
