In a game that took forever to play thanks to an obscene amount of turnovers and fouls by both teams, the Indiana Pacers were never able to find their rhythm against the Jazz, chasing from behind much of the night before eventually losing, 139-119.
After giving up a season-high tying 137 points to the Kings in their last game, the Pacers gave up a season-worst 139 points to the Jazz, highlighting the defensive disaster the team has been on the current road trip. Forget bouncing back against the Blazers on Sunday, the Pacers have to take it back to the basics and build back up to a solid and consistent level of play.
