After Action Report
The Pacers snuck past the 76ers 117-116. Pacers torched the 76ers on the offensive end. The Pacers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Pacers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a 76ers locker-room rift aren't helping. The 76ers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Pacers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
