Pacers visit Wizards in season finale

Basketball Betting Lines

04/14/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Indiana Pacers and Washington Wizards still have one more game to play tonight before embarking on any vacation plans.

Indiana actually played fairly well down the stretch but is coming off a blowout loss to Orlando on Monday. Vince Carter scored 21 points and Dwight Howard recorded another double-double with 12 points and 11 rebounds in that one, as the Magic spoiled Indiana's home finale in a 118-98 decision.

A.J. Price went for 19 points, while Mike Dunleavy and Danny Granger netted 18 apiece to lead the Pacers, who had won 10 of 12 coming into the game but have missed the postseason for four straight years.

"We just have to take the good with the bad," Price said. "This is the NBA."

The Wizards, meanwhile, are finishing up a disastrous and dysfunctional season in which star guard Gilbert Arenas was suspended after allegedly pulling a gun on teammate Jarvis Crittenton in the team's locker room.

Washington lost for the third time in four games Monday when Danilo Gallinari and Sergio Rodriguez combined for 26 of New York's 40 fourth-quarter points, and the Knicks closed out their home schedule with a 114-103 comeback victory over the Wizards.

Mike Miller had 23 points to pace the Wizards, who lost their second in a row. Andray Blatche ended with 19 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists, while Shaun Livingston scored 18 and had seven helpers. Nick Young scored 16 in defeat.

"It was very disappointing, very embarrassing," Livingston said. "Defensively, offensively, everything, it was just a meltdown."

Indiana has won four straight overall vs. the Wizards and will be aiming to sweep the season series tonight.
