One of the more surprising developments in a game the Indiana Pacers allowed 48 first quarter points to the Milwaukee Bucks is that they actually had it within reach late at points in the second half. Though the game was probably never truly as close as the 13 point deficits suggested, it was a bit of a nice run after getting comfortably blown out for much of the night.
The third quarter push, led by 13 points from Caris LeVert, helped cut the lead to 13 late in third, but Jrue Holiday and the Bucks were there to respond, using a four-point play to instantly push the lead back to 17.
