Paul George had 25 and Myles Turner had 17, but Indiana fell behind by double figures in the second quarter and couldn't stage a comeback in a 101-85 loss to Toronto, dropping them to 1-2 in the First Round series.
Game 3 was in many ways the quintessential showcase of the 2015-16 Indiana Pacers. A team that in crucial games has repeatedly allowed the opposing team to set the tone and control that tempo from the outset, forcing the Pacers into impossible situations given the lack of execution the team often has. That made the Toronto Raptors seizing control of Game 3 halfway through the first through better hustle and better execution no surprise, albeit disappointing all the same.
