The Pacers falter late again, falling in Atlanta despite 31 points from Paul George and a 14 point, 14 rebound double double from Lavoy Allen.
A fourth quarter lead proved all for naught for the Indiana Pacers, who fell short late against the Atlanta Hawks. The Pacers did so many things right and still found an uncanny way to lose. Indiana throttled Atlanta in second chance points 21-0, waxed them on the glass with 19 offensive boards and a +21 rebounding advantage, and hit 13 three pointers on the night. But yet they came out in the loss column.
