Chris Denari said with about 20 seconds left in the game “Frustrating night here in Memphis” and he couldn’t have been more right. The score margin was close, but this was a frustrating loss for the Indiana Pacers:
The Pacers kept cutting the lead down to 5 or less only to watch the Grizzlies make a run and extend that lead. It felt like no matter what the Pacers did, they could never get the lead.
Indiana had a case of turnover-itis. They had 17 of them, the ball just wouldn’t stay in their hands enough. Some of that is due to an altered rotation.
