Overcoming yet another 15-point deficit, the Indiana Pacers came up big in Winning Time to help them close out a win over the Los Angeles Clippers. Unsurprisingly, the Pacers found themselves off to a slow start, with misses and a lack of defensive focus allowing the Clippers to jump up by 16 points in the second quarter.
As always, however, that slow start didn’t become a definition of the night for the Pacers. Trailing 47-31, Indiana closed the half on a 19-4 run to bring them to within a single point. The comeback was led by Victor Oladipo, who had 11 points and two assists in the run, shooting 5-5.
