Hoosiers up 17 at half and Pacers have an early lead. Two-ah would be nice.

Edit Hoosiers blew big lead and gave up 11-0 run at end but Pacers played well.

Better team effort of playing together tonight. Brogdon and LeVert have a ways to go to make this offense consistently effective but getting there last 2 games.

However we must remember they beat the 11th place team in the East and Pacers are 13th place. :-?

Duarte definitely looks like he’s almost healthy as his shot was pure and he’s been more aggressive game by game.

Defensively still a work in progress for all and I noticed Brogdon’s on ball pressure was on display tonight.

All said Knicks have been hot and cold all season and have their own struggles. Gotta wonder what’s up with

Fournier - not scoring like he’s capable
Kemba - vet in the doghouse
Barrett -can score but no consistency
Toppin- needs more playing time
FYI - Toppin only player I would value of these 4.

We're closer to the 6 seed (4 games back) than we are to the next worse team in the East (5 games from us to Orlando).

It's a jumbled mess, and there's a long way to go. Health would do wonders for this roster.

Also, I'm ready to move Levert to the bench and let him be the nominal PG/ball handler there. Ideally, it would be if Warren ever returns, as I'd probably prefer Justin Holiday off the bench to keep him fresh, too.

It's also nice to see Brissett fighting for everything now. There seems to be a bit more of that all over the roster these last 2 games.
