Pacers trailed the Celtics by 10-15 pts. most of the game but late in the 4th, Mr. Oladipo simply took over but a really really sloppy pass (ala an IU type sloppy pass) from Bogdanovic led to a Celtic steal and bucket with 1.5 seconds left and a 1-point Celtic win.  14 of Vic's points came in the 4th Q and I think 8 may have come within the last minute.

Gordon's 7-made 3's is a new career high for him.

The fluke of the schedule the only IU guy with a pro game today (the 19th) is Blackmon and what a game he had.

All of our IU guys that saw action turned in very solid performances.  Big night especially for OG with 20 pts. on excellent shooting and for Vic as well as he continues to be among the top 10 scorers in the league.

Yogi and EG both with strong scoring games.  Because I'm looking at the box scores on a daily basis, it really is interesting to note how frequently Yogi's court time is a "+" despite the fact the Mavs lose the game.

There are no NBA or G-League games scheduled for the 24th.

Vic doing his thing once again and the Pacers wiped out yet another double digit deficit to get a win.

I was at the Pacers game last night I was sitting 14 rows up from the court and my brother in law had good seats. 

[Class of '66 Old Fart 85,922]

The Rockets had the Celtics down 20 at the end of the 1st Q and upped the lead to 24 at halftime.  Don't know what adjustments Stevens made at halftime but the Celtics came back and won the game 99-98.

TB sent back to G-League.

James Harden out for probably at least 2 weeks with a hamstring injury so EG has to pick up the slack.  He made a valiant effort but it wasn't enough as the Rockets fell to the Warriors 124-114.  TB tearin' it up in the G-League but can't get any meaningful play with the woeful LA Lakers.
