END RESULT
If the Pacers were indeed a tired team, as Coach Jim O'Brien suggested afterward, they were playing the wrong opponent. Philadelphia's waves of athletic, explosive players overwhelmed the Pacers 107-97 before 16,074 Saturday in Conseco Fieldhouse. Elton Brand scored 23 and his backup, Thaddeus Young, scored 22 off the bench. Danny Granger led the Pacers with 22 and A.J. Price scored 11 of his 17 in the fourth quarter when the Pacers attempted to rally from a 16-point deficit.
IMPACT
The Pacers failed to follow up a promising win in Detroit the night before and dropped to 15-29 overall, 10-11 at home and 3-11 on the second night of back-to-backs. The Sixers won their second in a row and fifth in eight games to improve to 15-28 overall, 8-14 on the road.
