In a high-scoring showdown, the Indiana Pacers showcased a dazzling offensive performance, securing a remarkable 144-129 victory against the Miami Heat (11-9) on Saturday night.
Despite a commendable 33-point effort from Jimmy Butler, the Heat found themselves on the losing end, unable to contain the Pacers’ relentless offensive onslaught.
Postgame, Butler openly expressed his frustration with the team’s current standing 20 games into the season.
“We stand right where we don’t want to be, which is very mediocre. Not good, not bad, just mediocre,” Butler said, per Brady Hawk. “You talk about our offense, it’s been mediocre. You talk about our defense, it’s been mediocre.”
