Post-Game Grades: Indiana Pacers Beat Atlanta Hawks

The Good: The second quarter. The Pacers responded to a poor first quarter effort by submitting one of their best twelve minute stretches of 2015. Indiana outscored Atlanta 31-13 in the quarter, taking advantage of some stellar play from their bench unit. Chase Budinger and Solomon Hill were especially effective, both scoring in double digits and posting exceptional plus/minuses throughout the game. Indiana even threw out One Three-Hill lineup that has rarely been seen before. Paul George was pretty bad for most of the night, but even he nailed a triple at the end of the second to give the Pacers a 12-point lead heading into halftime.
