The Pacers won, sorry lost, the Tank Bowl last night and have another chance to cement their legacy as the East's worst team tonight.
Despite the win, sorry loss, there were some positive highlights to note. Jarace Walker battled hard with 19 points and 14 rebounds.

Speaking of the fourth-quarter, both teams thumbed their nose at Adam Silver and rested their "best" players in winning time. Watch this space.
