Good lens for indoor sports?

People who ended up with a good one really loved that lens. It is DX-only and light for such a bright zoom. It comes with a motor in the Nikon mount. FWIW

I have this lens, and it is a gem. I haven't had any problems with the lens, and it is well built and sharp. I bought mine from KEH for about $600 and it is my main indoor sports lens...I shoot volleyball and basketball with this lens.
