Pacers' "Vibe" Missing Without Oladipo

The Pacers obviously miss Victor Oladipo on the court. His energy, defense, playmaking, and clutch shooting are readily identifiable qualities that will be difficult to replace. But, two games into his remainder-of-the-season absence, it seems they miss his mere presence more than anything.

"As you can see it's a quiet locker room right now," Thaddeus Young said following the Pacers' 132-100 loss to Golden State on Monday. "No music playing. The vibe is definitely off."

It was off in Saturday's three-point loss in Memphis to a team that had lost eight consecutive games and it was off in the loss to the Warriors before a sellout crowd at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
