For the first time since the season’s opening three games, the Indiana Pacers have pieced together a three-game winning streak. That they did it in a wire-to-wire victory over the Memphis Grizzlies sounds a bit more imposing than it was in practice, especially given how precarious things became late due to a night full of defensive struggles.
The Pacers absolutely rode their offense to a win, which has been a bit of an interesting note in this three-game winning streak that began with the high-scoring win over Minnesota. They even broke their own season high for points in a quarter that was set on Wednesday, posting a 45-point first quarter.
