The warm air outside on Thursday allowed fans to leave their jackets in the car. Walking into the Fieldhouse on such a comfortable evening while it was still light outside, prepping for the Pacers to take on a marquee opponent, made for a mix that comes natural at BLF - a playoff atmosphere.
Paul George was back in town and the Thunder are just the type of talented playoff team the Pacers had yet to beat since losing Victor Oladipo for the season. Everyone wanted this to be memorable night before the Pacers left town for their gnarly upcoming road trip.
