The playoffs are fastly approaching and the Indiana Pacers are making a move up the power rankings.

Despite losing a pair of games last week the Indiana Pacers are moving up slightly in the power rankings as the regular season approaches its end.

The losses to the Oklahoma City Thunder and Toronto Raptors were hard-fought so Indiana didn’t lose face is those two games and they beat the Boston Celtics (and then the Philadelphia 76ers), representing themselves to the outside observers.

The Pacers have an average ranking of 11.8 this week, moving an average of 0.6 spots.
