"It was only a matter of time before the nonstop, road-heavy schedule was going to catch up to the Indiana Pacers.
That time came during a rare home game in front of a rare sellout crowd.
The Pacers appeared tired for most of their 85-81 loss to the Orlando Magic in front of an announced crowd of 18,165 at Bankers Life Fieldhouse on Saturday night.
"Our legs were tired," Pacers forward Danny Granger said. "It was our fourth game in five nights. We just didn't have it physically. It's tough because you want to fight through it, and we almost pulled off the win.""
