INDIANAPOLIS – If only the Nuggets could play the Indiana Pacers each game, they’d be one of the best teams in the West.
Denver put up an impressive offensive performance against Indiana for the second time this season, this one a 125-117 win Friday on the Pacers’ home court at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. Since 2004, the Nuggets are 20-4 against Indiana.
The win Friday was perhaps one of the biggest in the series for Denver (35-37), which is battling Portland for the final playoff spot in the Western Conference. The Nuggets hold a one-and-a-half game lead over the Blazers, who were idle Friday.
