Yeah, last year I broke down and bought NBA League pass just so I could watch Victor, but didn't want to spend the money this year so I was forced to follow the game on Bleacher Report and highlights.  We do get the NBA network and saw a game occasionally when they'd have free previews.  This was great!  Hope they can keep it up.  I always root for whoever is playing LeBron, but this makes it even better!

Use reddit next year.

Amazing article, if this whole basketball thing doesn't work out, he'll make a fine writer .... but something tells me he'll be ok on the basketball court

Just another indication that his improvement over the years is off the charts: He went from a guy who got schooled by Verdell Jones to an NBA All-Star!

Awesome article. Thanks for sharing. This is a testament to Vic understanding the passion Indiana has for our basketball. He gets it.

Game starts off with refs giving Vic two quick fouls.  Seems suspicious to me!

Flopping sucks

Agreed, although I feel like those are charges on the Pacers and not on the Cavs. Officiating has been sketch. What gets me is that they never emphasize the rule of not being able to jump into someone when shooting to draw a foul. That 3rd foul on Vic swung the momentum right back to the Cavs

Yuuup. Agreed.

Well, we got to see Vic posterize LeBron a few times, just not enough times tonight. Tough one to lose after clawing back in after LeBron's insane 1st quarter.

[pappy1865 2,204]

Vic doesn't pick up those 2 quick ones, the Pacers win game 2 going away. I mean, come on. They survived the LeFlop onslaught to start, and only lost by 3? Vic will hit those big shots. I just feel it! Call me crazy, but I think the Pacers can win this series.

The fact you refuse to admit LeBron's first quarter was nothing short of excellent shows your ignorance. I know he wines and flops a lot (as most players do), but he was simply unstoppable last night.

Because he was unguatdable because he had somebody looking out for him.

Your unrelenting hatred for all things LeBron blinds you to what he does on the court.
