The Indiana Pacers closed out an impressive back-to-back effort on the road when they put away the Utah Jazz, 109-94.
There would be no ambush in Utah for the Pacers playing their second game in as many nights. Indiana put forth a strong effort right from the tip to earn a ten point lead after one quarter.
While Derrick Favors was a problem early, the Pacers spread the wealth and the community effort saw the starters split of 26 of the 31 first quarter points nearly evenly.
Good things happen to teams that put forth good effort and I’d call Corey Joseph’s buzzer beater before the half a good thing.
