IC Cold Links: Pacers Have To Keep Grinding Against Bucks After Tough Loss To Suns

The Indiana Pacers have to stay on the grind on Saturday night in Milwaukee when the face the Bucks with no regard for the weariness that may be weighing on their mind and legs after playing 48-minute thrillers the past two nights.

In the spirit of staying on the grind, I can sympathize with the Pacers this morning after completing a 12-hour overnight drive I too am trying to stay on the grind with some fresh ground coffee and some relevant links from last night's game. After phone-following the game on the road last night and catching up this morning it appears the Pacers were frustrated by another entertaining performance from Steve Nash.

With the Miami Heat due in town on Monday, the Pacers should feel a sense of desperation tonight in Milwaukee against a Bucks team that is playing well of late, including a 20-point win on Friday night over Charlotte. Forget style points, the Pacers need a win tonight in any form or fashion.
