There are always victories within victories in sports. Sometimes there are even victories within defeats. Rodney Stuckey had one of the greatest individual victories of the Pacers' season Friday, which is now extended until at least Sunday in no small way because of him.
Stuckey finished the Pacers' 101-83 Game 6 victory over Toronto with eight points, four assists, three rebounds, a steal and no turnovers in his 19 minutes, 43 seconds. He hit 3-of-5 shots, including 2-of-3 3-pointers, and made the assist on one of the game's biggest baskets early in the fourth quarter, when the Pacers completed an 18-0 run that gave them an 18-point lead.
