NBA Recap: Indiana Pacers vs. Charlotte Bobcats [Slideshow]
No thanks to Paul George’s atrocious outing and credit to Al Jefferson’s big night, the Charlotte Bobcats beat the Indiana Pacers, 109-87 on Wednesday night.
PG25, Indiana’s All-Star played like a scrub on this evening missing all of his nine shots from the field (including four from behind the arc) to finish with just 2 points in 34 minutes. Conversely, the Bobcats star big man had another huge scoring night with 34 markers a day after he exploded for 38 against the Miami Heat (LeBron James had 61 points in that one so nobody noticed).
After a five-game winning streak against scrub teams (Milwaukee Bucks twice, Los Angeles Lakers, Utah Jazz and Boston Celtics), the Pacers suffered back-to-back losses against quality teams in the Golden State Warriors and Bobcats.
Charlotte lost to contenders Oklahoma City Thunder, Miami Heat and San Antonio Spurs in their previous games but salvaged a win in a tough four-game stretch.
