The Indiana Pacers were going to grind the Orlando Magic out. That is what the team does. The defense is just suffocating and prevents much from getting into the paint.
Victor Oladipo, playing at near his best for the season, was almost singlehandedly bringing the Magic from the brink of a 10-point deficit with 2:23 to go. Indiana had pulled back up by five with 50.3 seconds left and Oladipo and the Magic had the ball.
They smartly ran through one of their sets and got Oladipo the ball on a curl at the top of the key, giving him momentum and room to drive to the right side of the basket and into the paint.
