Balanced Scoring Trumps Granger’s 36, Raptors Soar Past Pacers 123-112

Danny Granger had one of his better games as the Indiana Pacers visited Air Canada Centre to take on the Toronto Raptors; he would score 36 points, exploiting the Raptors’ frontcourt at will. Unfortunately for the Pacers, the rest of the team could not support Granger as any good team should. Toronto had seven players [...]

Pacers Rebound From Big Deficit, Beat Bucks 115-108

The Indiana Pacers, despite not going to the playoffs this season, could have chosen to do what a lot of teams in their position do – pack it in.  In their game against the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday, they perhaps showed what they were made of as a team as they somehow managed to overcome [...]

Pacers Play Spoiler, Edge Pistons 106-102

Now that the Indiana Pacers are officially out of the Eastern Conference playoff picture, they now can turn their attention to a role that have been rather proficient at the past three seasons: the role of spoiler.  In their game Saturday against the Detroit Pistons, they obviously had little to lose as they hoped to [...]

Hawks Solidify Playoff Seeding, Beat Pacers 122-118

I think it is safe to say that the Atlanta Hawks are for real.  They have a relatively good mix of youth and veterans; the three years or so it has taken for the Hawks to gel into a playoff-contending team are finally beginning to bear fruit.  In Friday’s game against the Indiana Pacers at [...]

Pacers Shoot 55%, Blast Raptors 130-101

Although the Indiana Pacers more than likely will not make the playoffs, you cannot accuse them of playing out the string.  In Wednesday’s game against the Toronto Raptors at Conseco Fieldhouse, they played like a team that was actually in the Eastern Conference playoff hunt; they shot 54.9% from the floor as they easily disposed [...]

Spurs Shoot 55%, Hold Off Pacers 126-121

Typically when you think of the San Antonio Spurs and Indiana Pacers locking up, high-scoring games don’t exactly come to mind.  Yet a funny thing happened on the way to Conseco Fieldhouse on Friday.  Both teams shot fairly well (Indiana shot 51.6% while San Antonio shot a sizzling 54.9%), which tells you that defense was [...]

Jazz Win Streak Now At 12, Decimate Pacers 112-100

The Utah Jazz obviously are looking for better playoff positioning as the season is in its twilight.  They brought an 11-game winning streak into Conseco Fieldhouse Tuesday as they took on the Indiana Pacers, who are very much missing leading scorer Danny Granger (torn tendon – foot) and Mike Dunleavy (knee).  But turnovers would prove [...]

Roy Leads Trail Blazers’ Late Rally, Edge Pacers 107-105

The Indiana Pacers, in their quest to sneak into the eighth playoff spot, had a daunting task at hand when they ventured to the Rose Garden to take on the Portland Trail Blazers; in what was arguably the best game on Wednesday’s game schedule, both teams went at it for nearly four quarters until a [...]
