On Sunday afternoon, Indiana played terrific basketball for 18 and a half minutes, turning a 9-point halftime deficit into a 7-point lead late in the second half. But a series of a miscues and bad decisions down the stretch cost Indiana a huge home victory.

— Devonte Green's up and down day.
— Why Rob Phinisee had a good game ... except when it mattered most.
