The Pacers ran out of gas and offense in the Bay Area on Thursday night which put them in a bind when the Warriors turned up the heat in the second half, on their way to a 112-89 win over the Pacers.
The Pacers had ample opportunities to build a lead at the start of the game as the Pacers were simply playing harder, while the Warriors were missing shots. But the Pacers struggled to finish around the rim and make shots elsewhere. Yet, despite shooting just 21 percent from the field, the game was tied after the first quarter.
