Indiana (4-3) enters its midweek matchup with Utah (2-6) after a 152-111 shellacking against the San Antonio Spurs on Monday. The 152 points matched the most points ever scored in a single NBA game by the Blue & Gold, with six Pacers finishing in double-digit scoring and 14 different players recording points in the game.

The Pacers have been getting buckets in bunches all season.

As of Wednesday night, the Pacers were leading the NBA in points per game (124.9), field goals made per game (47.3) and assists per game (31.9). At home, the Pacers have put up dominant offensive numbers, averaging 129 points per game on 47.4 percent shooting and 32.2 assists.

Finally very good games from Nembhard and Mathurin. Jalen Smith steady double double tonight. Tyrese off a bit scoring but still got a double double. Nesmith on fire again tonight. Turner strong.

Buddy way off tonight. Regardless a good team win.

So they took care of business winning the games they needed. I hope they have enough in the tank for the second half of a back to back vs the Bucks.

I don't know how, or why it happened, but Jalen's ON/OFF switch has been flipped to the ON position this season. Good for him.

I remember watching him as a college player against IU and thinking he'd be a solid pro. turned out he needed to get stronger and his work is paying off.

Been impressed on the defensive end. He's never going to be dominating, but at least so far, he's been staying in front of the offensive action instead of trying to play catch up as it moves past him towards the rim. He looks much better, and more consistent at the same time.

I seem to remember him being very efficient offensively in college? or am I just confused,.. again?...
