About a year ago, I was at The Eagle with some friends after class. They have table sharing, and about 20 minutes after we’re seated, who else gets sat next to my group but Victor Oladipo and his crew.
This was a few weeks before he returned from his knee injury. He was celebrating his girlfriend’s birthday. He was also joined by someone I assumed was his personal trainer.
We left them be and didn’t bother them as we didn’t want to be *those* people.

I’m seated closest to Vic, who was watching a NBA game on a TV and answering some questions from his personal trainer about the Pacers locker room.
I wasn’t able to pick up specifics of the conversation, but I did hear a few nuggets about the player’s relationship with Nate McMillan.
Trainer: “What about Aaron (Holiday)?”
Vic: “Yeah, they get along.”
Trainer: “What about Aaron (Holiday)?”
Vic: “Yeah, they get along.”
Vic: “But ::mumble:: doesn’t.”
Trainer: “Who?”
Vic: “TJ Leaf.”
Trainer: “Really?”
Vic: “Yeah, they’ve never gotten along. I know for a fact Nate doesn’t like him on a personal level. They don’t get along at all. Just one of those things that happens.”

Only texted @MillerTimePod about it at the time - who demanded and received photographic evidence and is able to vouch for me.
I’ll just conclude by saying I’m happy both Nate and Leaf have moved on from the team.
