Quick recap from Pacers-Magic: si.com/nba/pacers/sch…8:35 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
Pacers win 111-97. Big win over a team close to them in the standings, and a team that has given them fits all year. 97 is the fewest points the Pacers have allowed in a game all season.
Siakam and Haliburton with 20 pts each. 17 each for McConnell and toppin. Pacers are 36-29. – 8:31 PM
Scott Agness @ScottAgness
Two completely different halves with the Pacers controlling the 2nd in a 111-97 win in Orlando. They kept the Magic to 21 and 26 points in the 3rd and 4th, respectively.
McConnell + Toppin played big roles off the bench (17pts each) and they won the paint.
Next: Tue. at OKC. – 8:31 PM

Final: Pacers 111, Magic 97
Paolo Banchero – 19 pts, 5 rebs, 5 asts
Cole Anthony – 16 pts
Wendell Carter Jr. – 13 pts, 15 rebs
Franz Wagner – 13 pts, 4 rebs
The @OrlandoMagic return to action on Wednesday against the Nets. – 8:31 PM
Scott Agness @ScottAgness
Still frustrated by being called for traveling, Haliburton is whistled for his first technical foul of the season. Pacers are up by 10 with 4:45 left. – 8:20 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
9-point game with 4:45 to go after a Tyrese Haliburton tech. Pacers are ahead but losing some of their lead. – 8:20 PM
Scott Agness @ScottAgness
McConnell and Toppin have been massively impactful to the Pacers’ play. They were there early when points were hard to come by — and now they’re leading the charge once more.
17pts each and the Pacers lead by 16. – 8:12 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
Magic had cut the lead to 10 and had a ton of energy. Pacers answer with a 6-0 run in 43 seconds and are up 16. The last 2 minutes of so have been all over the place on the scoreboard, but Pacers come out with a bigger lead. – 8:12 PM
Cody Taylor @CodyTaylorNBA
After the Magic cut the deficit to 10 points, the Pacers have extended the lead to 99-83 with 7:45 to go in the game. – 8:11 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
Huge swing. Isaac had a chance to make this crowd explode but missed an alley-oop dunk, and Nesmith answers with a 3. Pacers up 13. – 8:09 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
Magic are challenging a foul call against Jonathan Isaac on an Obi Toppin dunk. It happened about 2 feet in front of my face and I’m inclined to say block. – 8:06 PM
Evan Dunlap @BQRMagic
After building a 15-point lead in the first half, the Magic now trail the Pacers by 15. Looks like the Oscars doesn’t have [ahem] the only Anatomy of a Fall tonight! – 8:01 PM
Dan Savage @Dan_Savage
Indiana outscored Orlando 39-21 in the 3rd.
Pacers 86, Magic 71 entering the 4th. – 7:59 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
39-21 in the third quarter and the Pacers are now up 15. Everything was better in that period — defensive execution, rebounding, rim pressure, energy, everything. It’s 86-71. 18 points now for Tyrese Haliburton. – 7:59 PM
Cody Taylor @CodyTaylorNBA
End of 3Q | Pacers 86, Magic 71
Haliburton: 18 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists
McConnell: 14 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists
Banchero: 15 points, 5 rebounds
F. Wagner: 13 points, 3 rebounds – 7:58 PM
Scott Agness @ScottAgness
From down 15pts in the 2Q to up 15 through three quarters… another strong 3Q as the Pacers have come to life and playing free. They badly needed a quarter like that.
They outscored the Magic 39-21 and have a 18-0 adv. in fast break points. – 7:58 PM
Cody Taylor @CodyTaylorNBA
The Pacers have outscored the Magic 39-21 in the third quarter. They have their largest lead of the game at 86-71. – 7:57 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
Obi Toppin has gotten so good at getting up on his tip tops during shot fakes. It always looks like he’s going to shoot. Just used that fake to dunk. – 7:55 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
Siakam-Toppin at the 4-5 for the Pacers right now. Foul trouble for Jackson and Turner. Currently, Pacers are up 11. – 7:53 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
Haliburton brings back that hook shot he used to take all the time and sinks it. The Pacers bench loved it. Pacers up 8. – 7:43 PM
Tommy Beer @TommyBeer
Over their last four quarters (dating back to start of 2Q vs Orlando) – the Knicks have allowed just 66 points – 7:38 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
Really good energy from the Pacers this quarter. They never felt like they were lacking it tonight, but it’s on another level right now. – 7:37 PM
Cody Taylor @CodyTaylorNBA
The attendance tonight at Kia Center is 19,481. It marks the third-largest crowd in Magic history. – 7:36 PM

Aaron Nesmith for 3 and this game is tied. – 7:29 PM
Scott Agness @ScottAgness
That was a rough first half for the Pacers, and it wasn’t much better by the Magic.
They’ve never led, but trail by just 3: 50-47.
Siakam has 13pts and McConnell with 10. Pacers were just 1 for 11 from range in the first half. Outrebounded by 9. – 7:15 PM
John Hollinger @johnhollinger
Halftime: Orlando 50, Indiana 47. Fun battle between Dale Davis and Bo Outlaw. – 7:14 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
Isaiah Jackson with a very impressive putback at the buzzer and it’s 50-47 at the break. Pacers were down as much as 15 but made some defensive adjustments and found more of a groove on offense. 13 points for Siakam, 10 for McConnell. – 7:14 PM
Dan Savage @Dan_Savage
Half: Magic 50, Pacers 47
Franz Wagner – 11 pts, 3 rebs

Tony East @TonyREast
2 techs on the Magic in quick succession. Lots of complaining from both teams tonight. Pacers will take the 2 free points. They’re down 5. – 7:11 PM

J. Michael Falgoust @ThisIsJMichael
As long as Nembhard is the matchup for Wagner, they’re going at that matchup w/good results each time. Pacers got in a while b/c Magic attacked it. Got away from it. Now back to it. Wagner too big – 7:02 PM
Indiana Pacers @Pacers
T.J. McConnell with the fake in the paint for the bucket. He has a team-high 10 points off the bench. pic.twitter.com/yNgU0omr9i6:56 PM

Tony East @TonyREast
9-0 Pacers run and they are back in the game. Magic haven’t scored in 3:10. – 6:56 PM
Scott Agness @ScottAgness
The Pacers’ vibe continues to be off…
McConnell has 10pts, two more than the team’s starters combined.
They’ve managed just 22pts in the first 16mins in Orlando. – 6:52 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
7 offensive rebounds for the Magic. 9 reounds for the Pacers total. 9-0 in second chance points, and the Magic are up 15. – 6:50 PM
John Hollinger @johnhollinger
I’m old enough to remember when the Indiana Pacers would score baskets. – 6:49 PM

Caleb and Jaquez always seem to make the right decision with one another
Orlando Robinson set to check in, so the Jovic backup 5 plan is taking a break – 6:44 PM

Orlando Robinson about to enter in place of Jovic. – 6:44 PM
Anthony Chiang @Anthony_Chiang
Nikola Jovic called for his third foul with 9:09 left in the second quarter. Orlando Robinson is about to enter. – 6:43 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
Pacers are really struggling offensively. 18 points in 13:35 of playing so far and they trail by 12. – 6:43 PM
J. Michael Falgoust @ThisIsJMichael
I think TJ McConnell can play 20 seasons. Supposedly his style of play is obselete b/c he doesnt shoot 3s, but yet to see anyone make him unplayable. Got 8 pts in 1st on 4 of 5 shooting b/c teams must not discuss covering him at all and theyre surprised he’s playing #MagicPacers6:39 PM

ORL: 39.1% FG | 28.6% 3PT
IND: 36.8% FG | 0% 3PT – 6:37 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
24-18 Magic after one quarter. Certianly a score and style that favors Orlando so far. Pacers have been better after a rough start, and T.J. McConnell is leading the way with 8 points. – 6:37 PM
Cody Taylor @CodyTaylorNBA
End of 1Q | Magic 24, Pacers 18
F. Wagner: 5 points, 2 rebounds
Ingles: 5 points
McConnell: 8 points
Siakam: 4 points – 6:37 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
Technical foul on Rick Carlisle. Jonathan Isaac was battling hard with Pascal Siakam and Isaiah Jackson on the broads just before that, but unclear if that’s the specific contact that was upsetting. – 6:35 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
McConnell keeping the Pacers heartbeat going. Drives, passes, buckets. He’s kept the Pacers in it after their slow start. – 6:32 PM
Scott Agness @ScottAgness
Pacers backup center Jalen Smith is questionable to play due to illness, per @ChrisDenari.
McConnell and Toppin are the first two subs in after a 12-2 deficit to start. – 6:23 PM
Cody Taylor @CodyTaylorNBA
The Magic have opened up the game with a 12-2 lead. Pacers are just 1-8 so far from the floor. – 6:19 PM
Dan Savage @Dan_Savage
The @OrlandoMagic open the contest on a 12-2 run.
Timeout Indiana. – 6:19 PM
Scott Agness @ScottAgness
Another rough start by the Pacers. 1 for 7, outscored 9-2 and outrebounded 9-3 in less than five minutes. – 6:18 PM
Tony East @TonyREast
Pacers are 1/5 so far and trail 7-2. Lotta jumpers so far. – 6:16 PM

This Indiana State situation is the ideal reason to go with a Play-In for the final 4 or 8 spots in the field.
Indiana State vs. the final Big East team (Villanova, Providence)
JMU or Appalachian State vs. Virginia or Wake
Mid-majors that can’t get HM games vs. high-major… – 4:36 PM

Drake beats Indiana State to win the Missouri Valley and get the auto bid.

Let’s hope Indiana State gets the at-large bid. – 4:23 PM

Markelle Fultz and Jalen Suggs are both out tonight for the @OrlandoMagic’s home game against the Indiana Pacers. – 4:18 PM

Wrote some words on the impact of Indy losing Bennedict Mathurin for the season.
One thing I left out: Toronto’s pick from Siakam deal now looking better than it did on trade day. Landing in 14-18 range seems very much in play.
