The Indiana Pacers finally solved the riddle of the Toronto Raptors that had given them fits in three prior meetings this season. David West helped fuel and enough-is-enough third quarter spurt that pushed the Pacers to a comfortable lead and allowed them to cruise home with a double-digit win.

With 23 game remaining in the regular season, every game is critical and win valuable as the Pacers remain engaged in a tight race for playoff positioning. Bouncing back for the W last night helped avoid any negative momentum from gaining steam with three of their next four games against Chicago, Boston and Miami.

That's the long way of saying -- this is getting fun!
