Been vacationing, but wanted to at least get the numbers up before the tip. I only have seconds to go. This is like a McGrubber sketch, except perhaps not quite as dumb. Long story short: The Pacers go for three straight wins vs. Dwight Howard and his Superman cape.

Will it happen?

Hope so. But doubt it.
