Pacers say load management isn’t for them — at least not yet

Thanks to their win over the Denver Nuggets, the Indiana Pacers sit two games ahead of the Boston Celtics here on Monday and more importantly, still in fourth place. A four-game skid by the Celtics isn’t hurting Indiana as they hold on to their position in the standings despite the inevitable feeling that they’ll lose that spot.

While a two-game lead with eight games left is hardly a sure thing, it’s worth asking if the Pacers should consider some ‘load management’ or what normal human beings call ‘rest’.

Indiana is saying no, not yet.
