The franchise-best offensive output that gave the Indiana Pacers 152 points on Saturday showed up again, putting up an impressive 141 against the Washington Wizards. Unfortunately, they opted to pair it with a near franchise-worst defensive output, allowing 154 points, one shy of the franchise record, as they drop their seventh straight game against playoff or play-in opponents.
The numbers in this one are as eye-popping as the last one, but almost exclusively in the other direction as the Wizards just piled on the Pacers defense. The Wizards blew up their already staggering 74 points in the paint from March, finishing with 96.
