Urgency Growing for Pacers After "Tough Loss"
This was the kind of loss that tests the boundaries of permissible language in a public forum.
"It sucks," Jeff Teague said.
"I was p***ed," Paul George said.
No doubt stronger language would have been heard throughout the Pacers' locker room before the media was let in Tuesday, following their 115-114 loss to Minnesota at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. It was perhaps, the most frustrating loss of the season, given the urgent need for a victory and the caliber of the opponent. The Pacers are locked in a desperate search for a playoff position, and losing to a losing team that brought a six-game losing streak into the game is hardly the way to claim one of those spots.
