Indiana Pacers Play Their Worst Game of the Season in Loss to Chicago Bulls

The season is only three games old for the Indiana Pacers, but with their performance on Saturday against the Chicago Bulls, they’ve already sent fans into panic mode.

The final score of 118-101 hides what was an embarrassing loss.

The Bulls only held a four-point lead over the Pacers at the end of the first quarter. but then Chicago made 14 of 18 field goals (along with all seven of their free throws) to take a 62-41 lead into the half, and effectively ended the game.

The Pacers were almost passable offensively during that stretch — making 10 of 21 shots — but the defense was a train wreck.
