The Indiana Pacers defeated the Los Angeles Clippers 103 - 91 on Wednesday thanks to another fantastic Paul George performance. This wasn’t a pretty game by any means, as there were only two true offensive threats on the floor. What won the game for the Pacers was its stellar defense, as they allowed just 62 points after the first quarter. They also held the Clippers to just 38 percent shooting and 22 percent from three - point range. Both teams took 39 free - throws but the Pacers made 32 of them while Los Angeles made just 25. This marks the sixth - straight win for Indiana as well. The Pacers have been carried by George all season and that was the case again on Wednesday. George tallied 31 points, 10 rebounds, four assists and three steals in yet another great game. He is definitely the favorite for Comeback Player of the Year with the way he is playing right now and will even garner some MVP votes if he keeps this up. Indiana also got double - digit points from three of their bench players, as Jordan Hill, Rodney Stuckey and C.J. Miles combined for 41 points. The Pacers will look to build off this win when they take on the Portland Trail Blazers on Thursday in the second half of a back - to - back set. The Clippers had to play this game without Chris Paul and they also lost J.J. Redick in the first minute of this loss. That means that they had to rely on DeAndre Jordan and Blake Griffin. Both big men had subpar games, as they combined for just 21 points. In fact, all the starters combined for just 34 points in a poor performance. Lance Stephenson had his best game of the season though against his former team, as he collected 19 points, three rebounds and three assists in the defeat. Los Angeles is in a rough stretch right now and things wo n't get better until Paul returns. The Clippers will look to bounce - back when they host the Orlando Magic on Saturday and Paul's status for that game is unknown at this time.
