Victor is making me fall in love with a Pacers team all over again. Been s few years since that’s happened

Dude is having so much fun. First time I think he’s really enjoyed his situation since being drafted.

Getting out from under Westbrook's shadow was absolutely the best thing that happened.   With the season he's having and his personality and charisma his agent needs to be working some really good endorsement deals for him.

47 POINTS - a new career high for Vic as the Pacers beat the Nugetts 126-116 in OT only allowing the Nuggets to score 2 pts. in OT.   He also added 7 reb; 6 assts and 2 stls.   He continues to amaze.

 

NOTE: The 47 is from the NBA site although some people are reporting only 46.  Really not that critical as his old high was 45, so it's a new personal best either way.

Awesome game and I happened to be watching the replay of the Pacer Cleveland game so got to see the end and then the overtime!  So happy to get to see and hear all the Oladipo love!

Just saw this tweet from Jake Query:  Victor Oladipo’s nickname should be “Rated R”, because he’s showing more adult stuff than PG 13.      lol

I agree now but I think playing there really helped Vic. I think he learned the value of getting in great shape and began to see how he could play that Westbrook style himself.

Each game I watch just tops the last one. Man this TEAM is such a treat to watch and Vic is the obvious ringleader. He is everything you want in a player to build around. Just bought tickets with some friends for Wednesday's game against OKC, can't wait!

It's going to be pretty crazy. I'll be booing every time PG's name is mentioned, he has the ball, etc.

It is nuts how much this guy has embraced this state. If you want a current day representation to show kids what it means to be a Hoosier, Vic is that guy. Favorite all time Hoosier, and it isn't close for me

Vic is the guy that can bring Pacers basketball back. He is the perfect type of player and more importantly type of person that Indiana likes and roots for. He flys around the court, is humble, stays to sign autographs after games, and just does the little things.

IU fans have known what Vic can be and who he is and now the rest of the state gets to see it. I’m so excited for this team.

I caught a few minutes of the Lebatard show and heard them wondering if OKC would like to trade PG and Anthony to the Pacers for Oladipo. I was thinking, no way the Pacers would be interested in that.

You couldn't pay me enough to want Carmelo Anthony on my team.

Kind of a dumb question all around regardless of how bad right now the trade seems it was proven that Oladipo didn't fit OKC so I'd say both teams would say no.

I have no idea why teams are willing to pay a fortune for a guy that has never made his NBA teams better.

Victor Oladipo has been named the NBA Eastern Conference Player of the Week for Week 8. 

 

Way to go Vic!

Tonight at 7:00 on ESPN, the new face of the Pacers vs. the guy who left many Pacer fans with a bad taste in their mouths.  OKC vs the Pacers.
