In defense of the refs, they refs were bad for both teams. JR Smith pulled off a pretty big flop on a screen attempt by David West late in the fourth quarter. West was called for the four, Smith offered a lead role on Broadway.

The flopping wasn’t enough to defeat the Pacers who took home court advantage 102–95 with the road victory.
