Didn't get to watch this game, but good to see Goga and Sumner getting some playing time. Looks like even Stanley got in on the action, nice

Sabonis left early with a knee injury (bruise?), so it was a deep into the bench night early. Ultimately, Lamb really carried the night off the bench, with McConnell doing his normal mosquito like play that just annoys the opponent and drives the bench, and Goga producing in his 12 minutes. Myles and Brogdon were dynamite when it came down to it late. Myles had 16 FTA and Brogdon had 14 FTA.
The wonderful thing of the night was when Toronto really started pushing in the 2nd half, Nate saw the need for multiple ball handlers and had TJ and Leaf out there with Brogdon to take some pressure off the team, and it really paid off. Also, Bjorkgren earned his first tech as a Pacer in the 2nd half and it paid off, with getting a foul call on the next Brogdon drive that Bjorkgren had really been pressing for, and earning some respect from his players. Real good win that can likely be chalked up to adapting through good coaching, and good players making plays late.

A split certainly works particularly with Sabonis going out with bruised knee. We played deeper in 2nd of back to back. Need to do that always as we need gas in 4th quarters.

Did you mean Sumner? Stanley also played some and got a nice block.

Lamb. Must’ve mistyped and autocorrected.
Sumner played early.

Ah. A 4 letter name beginning with L. Should've seen that. Yes, Lamb is really contributing. His game is a lot like Warren's.

Lamb is just so underrated
I wonder if people on the trade board still thinks of him as a bad contract
Heck, Pacer players are underrated in general
Lamb - bad contract
Warren - bubble fluke
Myles - terrible
McConnell - scrub
McDermott - overrated
Etc

Good to see Lamb contributing. Man, would I like to see this team healthy all at once for a change.
