After Action Report
In a track meet, the Pacers snuck past the Heat 105-103. The breakneck pace played right into Pacers' hands. The Pacers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Pacers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Heat · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
