Green +13. Booker -3. Wouldn't guess by just looking at the box score.

Ball was sticking too much for my liking, but it's hard to expect a fully focused effort in this game.

Onto the next one.

Jalen Green for 1,2,.......THREEEEEEEE !!

Only one player who played more than 5 minutes was a net NEGATIVE TONIGHT on the +/-.... no surprise who. BUT HE KEEPS GETTING MINUTES!!! Why!!!!!

Solid win, kind of like the Bucks game where they were hitting a bunch of shots early on but just couldn't sustain it while we just kept doing what we were doing.

Thought the ball movement was good for the most part, still some lazy passes from Green that he needs to clean up but he's in a pretty good rhythm offensively scoring 36 and I think 17 in the 4th. Book with 43 so he and Green carried us offensively. Royce had it going from 3, thought Oso played well inside against the bigger Zubac. Aside from Book and Green who both played 34 minutes, no one else played 30 so Ott did a good job managing minutes with the rest of the group.

The Indiana Pacers gave it everything they had, bless their little hearts.

Ivica Zubac apparently set to make his Pacers debut. Based on his results against the Suns with the Clippers earlier this year, my guess is he'll go for about 30 and 30.

I think you're being conservative.

We were close. 8 and 6. But in limited minutes.

Make no mistake though. The Pacers are tanking. Didn't play Zubac or Nembhard in the 2nd half.

I really hope this is said facetiously lol

Hard to believe he just passed Magic on the all-time scoring list and he's only 29-years-old.

Rookie report please

Could finish 8th all time if he plays into his late 30s.

Booker also passed Marion on the all time scorers list tonight

They were showing the players list and he’s in really good company. I’m not sure we’ll see a player like Booker homegrown ever again.

Like AIG said…Booker has a chance to climb very very high on these leader boards…I wouldn’t even put 30k out of the question if he manages to stay relevant into his mid to late 30s and has some good health luck.

Wow

Is this what we are going to see from the Book and Green tandem?

How is Dillon going to fit in when he gets back?

If he can help pick up the defense, we could be really dangerous. With a healthy and focused Williams return we might be able to beat anyone.
