Coming down to the wire, the Mavericks are seventh in the Western Conference, 5 games ahead of eighth place Oklahoma City. The Pacers are tied with the Celtics for ninth in the Eastern Conference. They’re only a half - game behind the eighth place Nets, so Sunday’s victory was crucial. With Sunday’s game in the books, the Pacers have completed the season series sweep of the Mavericks, 20.
