After Action Report
The Pacers blew the doors off the Hornets 115-95. Pacers' scorers couldn't be contained. Fresh off a statement win, the Pacers stayed locked in; Pacers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Tonight's Hornets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
