Big night for Vic and the Pacers as they went on the road to Orlando and got the W with Vic having a superb all-around game.  His 7 steals were 1 off the Pacer franchise record.

Vonleh with 18 rebounds to go along with 11 pts. for a very nice double-double.

Cody took a 3 and made it!

Apparently Troy has been recalled by the Rockets and got 8 minutes of action last night.  Vonleh with another double-digit rebound game.  No G-League games.

Neither the NBA nor the G-League have any games scheduled for today.

11.26.17 - No NBA or G-League games scheduled involving IU players.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 91,632]

What a night for Vic and a Pacer victory.  26 points on sensational shooting hitting 11-14 FG's and 4-6 on 3's along with 6 reb; 5 asst; 4 blk & 2 stls.  And with that kind of night, you can just skim over the 5 TO's.

Yogi and Eric with forgetitabout games.  Yogi with an 'ofer' night in scoring but in the oddity of the game, the team was still +19 with him on the floor.  Eric is just very streaky and last night wasn't his night going 1-10 on 3's and only 5-15 for the game.

Vonleh with another double-digit rebound night.  His court time is up nearly 6 min./game over last year and so far this year he's averaging 8.3 rpg vs. 5.2 and 3.9 the 2 previous years.

And Thomas bouncing back and forth had himself quite a G-League game with 28 pts. hitting 6-9 3's.

Thanks as always, Old Fart.  Good to note also that Vic was playing against one of his former teams.  The dude just belongs in Indiana.  Also a fun interview with Lance, where you can hear Vic singing in the shower, really funny.

When Yogi got picked up by the Mavs and went on his streak last year, I pretty much became a Mavericks fan.  Mavsmoneyball.com is a website that has some great articles, including one from this weekend.  You all probably know, even after Yogi was one of the top 5 performing rookies in the league last year (getting pretty much ignored in the process), Dallas recruited over him with their #9 pick, getting Dennis Smith, Jr., and Mavs fans have hailed DSJ as the savior of the program.  The rub is that the team plays better with Yogi on the floor, and someone found out that the Mavs--a 5 win team--can field a team of 5 that just smashes everybody.  Worth a read!
