Pacers absolutely crushed the Bulls 125-86.  Vic's stat line is for only 3 quarters of action as he sat out the 4th Q based on minutes played I saw in the box score.  Don't know why TB didn't see any G-League action the way he's been playing.

In case it's not said enough, thank you for for this thread.  I check it every day.

Haven't watched a Pacers game in probably 5 years. Flip over to it tonight and they rip off 20 unanswered pts. Maybe I should watch more lol.

Cavs are getting blasted @minnesota. Hard team to figure out this year.

Instead of overcoming a huge deficit for a 'W' the Pacers almost coughed one up.  Up 21 at the end of the 1st; 26 at the half; 23 at the end of the 3rd, and they held on to win by 13 but only after they had to re-insert the starters into the game in the 4th Q when the Bucks made a huge run.

With Harden still sidelined, EG came up big again not just with points but also dished out 9 assists.

Yogi with a very productive game hitting 7 of the 10 shots he took, all of which were 3's.  EG stepping up nicely for the Rockets in Harden's absence.  After missing several games due to injury, Cody was in uniform last night but did not play.

Some top NBA prospects denied admittance to G-League.  Brian Bowen, Mitchell Robinson, and 3 others caught up in the FBI corruption investigation at USC and Auburn.

Excited about this one. Wanted to share this after hearing about it. Been noted in the past nobody studied game film more than Kobe. Now we get a show on how and what he looks for? That’s awesome

Vic didn't have an eye poppin' game but how about those Pacers?  They overcame yet another double digit deficit - 22 pts. to the Cavs - and came back for a 97-95 win.

Have any of you guys seen Markelle Fultz shoot a ball lately? There are quite a few videos of him shooting in practices and his shot is beyond horrible. Has a nasty hitch and he's airballing all the time. Looks like his confidence is completely gone, I've never seen anything like it. I don't think the Sixers can play him this year,  it's that bad.

Didn't he have some medical thing at the beginning of the year. (Enter joke about 76ers drafting nothing but injured  players here.)

 

But yeah, its ugly as heck

Yeah, but he had already changed his shot some before that I think. 

[mdn82 25,456]

Within 15 feet and his free throws look normal. It’s his outside shots where that hitch showed up they said. Weird

His FTs are absolutely not normal. Granted this video is from a few months ago... He shot 65% at Washington as well.

LOL. Shoot doctors need to stay away
