Victor Oladipo - Memphis Grizzlies

[BtownBanner6 1,298]

So it's most valuable player (from one of the top few teams) award?

Yeah pretty much because that's kind of what the value is. If you don't have your team in contention for the title and another guy does I'd say he is more valuable. Either way the award is simply who has the most stats and most hype on that certain year. We've gone away from value.

Oladipo also out dueled Lebron down stretch and hit game winning go ahead 3 with just under 2  min. left. Lebron stepped out of bounds along the baseline trying to drive for the game winning basket with under 5 sec. left. Great game. Pacers 3-0 vs. Cavs this year.

Oladipo 17 points in an easy Pacer win over the Suns to start west coast trip.

Lengthy article on Vic in today's Star by Clifton Brown.

3 stls

Good game for Dipo except for 6 turnovers, 3 of which were really ridiculous and careless at the end of each half. Otherwise Pacers best game of year and first team to beat Spurs in San Antonio since November. 

[Class of '66 Old Fart 81,420]

Last time the Pacers swept San Antonio, their starting lineup consisted of @MarkJackson13, @ReggieMillerTNT, Derrick McKey, Dale Davis and @riksmits_45.  That was in the 1994-95 season.

Victor Oladipo was born May 4, 1992.    lol

Hopefully tonight he'll be added as a player.

Aaron Gordon, Victor Oladipo and Larry Nance Jr. along with Dennis Smith Jr. (as reported by @ShamsCharania) have accepted their invitations to the 2018 NBA Dunk Contest, a league source tells me.

@wojespn: Indiana's Victor Oladipo has been voted onto the Eastern Conference All-Star reserves, league sources tell ESPN.

Deserved and not just because I'm a fan.

Can't say it enough. Vic is a great representative of his family and the programs/organizations he represents. Glad to see there was an all star in that 2013 draft class.

Can he help recruit for us? Having an All-Star alum playing in our state should be a helpful recruiting tool.

Maybe he can make a call or two down to New Albany.

Not sure how much he could sell a player on a guy he didn't play for.

I don't believe he can reach out to a player but if I player contacted him he could answer questions (?). I believe someone got in trouble for something similar 10+ years ago. But with the NCAA you never know..
