Victor Oladipo - Memphis Grizzlies

While waiting for the I.U. game saw a nice piece on Inside Stuff about Victor, NBA TV.  Hope he does well in the slam dunk.  He was robbed the time before he did it.

Didn't feel like Victor's heart was in the dunk contest this year!

But the Black Panther dunk was cool

Wasn't it just a double pump two-handed slam?  I'm not really finding the coolness factor. 

Now, the steal and reverse jam was pretty cool.

I know what you mean.  The dunk itself was kind of meh but him mixing it up and putting on the mask was different.  Other than a chair, I can't remember the last time a prop was used for dunk in the contest.

He had a really nice steal --> dunk, mid range pull up j, and 3 in the closing minutes to keep Washington at bay as well.

 

Continued his Pacer franchise record for consecutive games with a steal (46), and currently tops the league in steals/game.

 

Way to go VO!

May have had a bit of a mental letdown after playing and winning a hard fought game back home the night before. Really good to see the team pull out a win in a close, contested matchup when their leader has an off night.

5/19 with 10 turnovers and Pacers still win. That's something.

Ugh Victor. Game number 4 for me last night and he still has not performed well in any of them. Whole team didn't perform last night and I am now 1-3. It's to bad because last time I went against Memphis I said crowd could not even get into it late in a close game. Last night the crowd tried to get the Pacers back into it and was louder the couple times the Pacers cut it to single digits in the third quarter than at any point against Memphis. If this were a close game down stretch crowd actually would of been a factor.

Overall its been a great year for Pacers but my pick of games has been most unlucky (blown out by Portland, lose to bad Dallas team, barely beat terrible Memphis and blown out by Utah) and Victor has been bad in 3 and missed 1.
