Teams aren't scoring many points on the Pacers these days, and that didn't change on Monday. Indiana downed the Minnesota Timberwolves, 98-84, in front of the home crowd to improve to 13-1 on the season, the league's best record for the moment.

Paul George and George Hill pitched in 26 points apiece, and the stifling Indy defense held Minnesota to just 32.6 percent shooting. Meanwhile, the Pacers were hitting everything. They shot 50 percent from the floor and 53 percent from beyond the arc. It was just one of those nights for the team with the East's best record.
Kevin Love went for 20 points and 17 rebounds, and Nikola Pekovic and Kevin Martin pitched in 18 each, but it wasn't enough. Only four other players on the roster scored, and none of them more than nine points.
The Timberwolves have now lost four of their last five after getting out to a hot start to the season.
