For Indiana, the fight to make the playoffs is about more than just playing a few more games.

The Fever are a shaky franchise, and management has started hinting that if things don't turn around, the team won't stay in Indiana. Fan interest has never been great, and a disappointing season like this one hasn't helped.

Says the IndyStar: "It would be a shame to see the Fever slip into oblivion. But that's what's happening now. Around here, a losing season means a lot more than simply losing games."
