After Action Report
The Pacers snuck past the Nets 94-93. Ugly basketball, but the Pacers did just enough. The Pacers couldn't shake the cold spell; the Pacers bent the defense out of shape from deep. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nets · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
