The Good: The 2nd quarter. The Pacers raced out to a 36-18 quarter as the all bench lineup (Ty Lawson, Rodney Stuckey, C.J. Miles, Solomon Hill, and Myles Turner) cleaned the Knicks’ clocks.
The Bad: The 2nd half. The Pacers yet again gave away a late lead to an inferior team. They (and please, stop me if you’ve heard this before) were careless with the ball, uninspired on defense and forgot how to score.
MVP: Rodney Stuckey. Great to see Stuckey healthy and playing off the ball again. 17 points on 9 shots, 5-5 from the line.
