The Orlando Magic took a step back Monday against the Indiana Pacers.
Scott Skiles said it explicitly. The positive play of winning three games in four nights disappeared pretty quickly with the Pacers’ 97-84 win over the Magic on Monday night.
“It’s exactly how we felt,” Skiles said after practice Tuesday. “Even though we had a three-point lead, we didn’t play very well. Usually something bad is going to happen when you play like that. We had guys open all ove rthe place, and for whatever reason we kind of drove it in and we didn’t see each other like we have been.
