After Action Report
The Pacers blew the doors off the Wizards 142-92. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pacers cashed in. The Pacers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
