James Young deserves the game ball. 12 points, 2 steals, some rebounds, some assists.

Nice game

For once, we did OK at rebounding

and every player (even J Young!) did his bit

It will be fun to see when everyone gets healthy.

with all respect, this is the most redundant comment I've read today  :D

It's totally redundant I just had to say it.

maybe Stevens wanted/had to rest him (?) - just guessing

This type of game is why CBS is a great coach.

i have to agree.  Pacers got to within 1-2 points, and we gather our poise and then close out the game.  Some of that is Brad.

ok...I didn't say that.  We are close to closing out the game.

Back to backs are hard too.

We have a lot of back to backs to begin with...

Nice win! Hopefully we don't have to watch this team without Al again for a long time.
Isaiah, you were lightning in a bottle.

Yeah and a big reb. at the end of the game to keep the lead.
Loved this win.

Sometimes it just takes 1 game, like this, to boost ones confidence. Hopefully we will start seeing some consistency out of his play going forward,

Nice win.  Paul George sitting made up a bit for Jae/HOrford sitting.   Glad to have Olynyk back... he looks great.

His defense, rebounding, and shooting are good. But his dribbling and passing/play making are awful.

We can only hope! Young brought terrific energy tonight.

we are 5-4 now

considering the absences, that's not bad at all
