The Pacers are picking up the pieces after two tough losses on the road that will keep them out of any conversation to make noise in the playoffs until they actually make noise in the playoffs.
Still, despite second-half meltdowns in both Milwaukee and Philadelphia, the Pacers are still tied in the won/loss column with the Sixers, however now a game behind due to the tie breaker. All is not lost at this point, just two games in the grand scheme of things.
But the Pacers have to be much sharper going forward, without a doubt.
