TJ Warren with 3 straight fouls. The refs really give Luka the star treatment.

Down to the wire. Lots of really big moments down the stretch. Turner with a couple really solid defensive plays being switched onto Luka and a big 3 in the final minutes. Vic with a couple clutch shots looking like vintage Oladipo.

Justin Holiday's shooting might be one of the best aspects of the whole season.

Great win.

Myles Turner just does so much defensively for this team and simply covers up so many mistakes from his teammates, it’s amazing. And he and Dom really look like they’re truly figuring each other out.

The two minute report, for whatever those are even worth, said there were two correct no-calls on Oladipo but one missed foul on Turner. They also said the knee from Sumner was correctly called a common foul.

Luka looks like a one-of-a-kind talent, but man, what a whiner.

"They hit me in the face, and that should be a foul," Doncic said. "They should look at it. I think the rule is when you get hit in the face, they've got to look if it's flagrant or no, right? Like I said, I was hit in the face three times. Two of them was not a foul."

After the Pacers increased their lead to three points with 13 seconds remaining in the game, Doncic confronted the referees about the missed call on Oladipo.

"They didn't care," Doncic told reporters after the game. "It was clear. Everybody saw on the jumbotron."
