You know the deal.

GO PACERS

Oladipo presumably returning to the lineup but Vegas still has Pacers as 1.5 point underdogs here.

Orlando without Isaac, so Gordon will be playing more a pure 4.

Has the time been changed? I could swear that it was scheduled for 6:00 PM.

I'm not really into sports betting, but if I'd looked at this closer sooner it totally would have been worth putting money on the Pacers here.

Underdogs against the Magic? Lol.

Pacers have been in control the whole game.

TJ Warren has been incredible. As per my writing of this comment, he's tied with Jermaine O'Neal for most points in a 3-game stretch in franchise history with 119.

Myles has been hitting some big threes but some of his turnovers on transition plays make the differences between him and players like KAT, Jokic, Adebayo very clear.

McConnell was the other stand out of the game. He was absolutely embarrassing Fultz out there.

Everyone else was super solid. Doug hit his shots, the Holiday brothers played their usual roles, and Brogdon was Brogdon. Didn't feel like we saw as much from Oladipo tonight but he still gracefully settled into his secondary offensive role with 13/5/2.

Wow, that looked like easy money to be had

The bench was effective. TJM, Doug, Justin, Jakarr, Sumner all gave quality backup minutes

Along with the starters, that's a nice ten man roster

And that's with Domas and Lamb and Bitadze out with injuries

Yes. I typically stay away from betting on teams I like because I don't want to have clouded judgement. But nice payday thanks to Pacers yesterday.

I'll admit. I wasn't real excited about the restart. Didn't think I would get back into it. Especially with Domas out and Vic being wishy washy I thought this would be a s*** show. But man this is a lot of fun. Kudos to the players and staff for overcoming a lot and producing.
