Indiana Pacers 98-84 Minnesota Timberwolves
Il suffit que les Pacers décident de cadenasser un adversaire pour que celui-ci dépasse à peine les 80 pts. Même Minnesota, une franchise pourtant parmi les plus redoutables offensivement depuis le début de la saison, confinée à... 32% d'adresse. Kevin Love a beau avoir sorti un nouveau gros double-double (20 pts, 17 rbds), le All-Star a été rendu maladroit (6/20) par l'excellente défense d'Indiana. Idem pour Kevin Martin (4/14) et Corey Brewer (3/12). La doublette Paul George (26 pts à 10/16) - George Hill (26 pts à 9/13) a fait le reste en attaque pour un nouveau succès impressionnant des hommes de Frank Vogel. On notera la bonne entrée de Ian Mahinmi, auteur de 7 pts et 4 rbds à 3/5, mais aussi d'un superbe contre [youtube hd="0"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1oz5ey57AQ[/youtube]Highlights
