Fantastic efforts from Paul George, Jeff Teague, and Lavoy Allen were wasted thanks to a woeful performance from the rest of the Indiana Pacers. The Pacers dropped back into the loss column, as the Boston Celtics completed their season sweep of the Pacers with a fairly comfortable victory in the second half.
The Pacers had good energy early, but an inability to hit shots kept them from being much of a threat to the Celtics, who had major ball control issues throughout the first half. The Pacers forced 14 first half turnovers on Boston, helping create situations where the offense could come around.
