Pacers' Al Jefferson: Shows off vintage post game in loss

Jefferson scored 14 points (6-13 FG, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and a block Thursday in a 95-102 loss to New Orleans.

Analysis:

Jefferson put on a left-block post-up seminar in the third quarter. With Paul George resting on the bench, and Myles Turner sitting due to foul trouble, Indiana dumped it to Professor Al down low and let him lecture to his hearts content. He torched Anthony Davis on a few possessions, and kept Indiana afloat while their young stars watched from the sideline. While he won't have this kind of output most nights, the 36-year-old still looks as nimble as ever once in a blue moon.
