The Good: This game was fine overall.
The Pacers led or were close the entire game, on the road against a Wizards team that has been playing extremely well. They came up short, but it was a hard-fought game that was mostly bereft of any utter breakdowns like the Pacers have seen all season.
The Bad: The Pacers gave up 28 and 10 to Markieff Morris. Lavoy Allen and Kevin Seraphin both had good offensive games, but the Pacers needed Thad Young’s combination of size and speed here, and just didn’t get it.
