Indiana Pacers 2013-2014

Recommended Posts

I am sick to death of these slow starts for the Pacers.  I know Lance is out tonight, but still, it's a problem almost every single game.  It actually drives me crazier this year than anything so far with IU. 

 

Also, I love Roy, but sometimes he looks down right average.  

Hibbert is overrated imo... He is a great defender (gets away with a lot) but he is absolutely awful on offense usually. He is 7'2 290 and shoots 45% FG.

[quote name="IUfan_Charlie" post="35853" timestamp="1391820363"]Pacers have been awful for the better part of a month. PG has been playing like ****. Bench is awful. [/quote] Bench is not awful. Did you watch the Pacers last year? PG isn't playing like 4 asterisks either. There's more to the NBA than scoring 25 a game. Considering the Pacers still have the best record in the league, they're doing alright I'd say. Don't forget that this is probably a top 6-7 NBA team, too. Maybe top 5.

Bench ranks in the bottom 7 if I'm not mistaken, and I realize PG has been good on D. But when he was putting up 24 a game the entire year then just starts putting up 7-21 FG performances on the reg I'd consider that bad.

And they've been playing horribly against a lot of teams lately. They almost lost to the Kings w/o their best 2 players.

The NBA season is 82 games long. Teams aren't going to get up for every game, it isn't physically possible if you want to be ready for postseason.

I agree that he isn't playing on the same level on offense. But you can't just say he's playing like ****. Regardless of rankings, the bench is still worlds better than last year. I don't know how to quote 2 posts, but to your second one, it's the NBA. It might have been the Kings, but it's still an NBA team. Everyone can play. We didn't defend 2 guys and we almost paid for it. As long as we stay healthy and preferrably keep that #1 seed, a couple bad games won't kill us.

Indiana Pacers all-star Paul George addressed reports that he's the father of a child from a relationship with a woman from Miami.

"If and when there is any legal confirmation I'm the father, I embrace it. I step up to it," George told reporters this morning at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.

George, however, denied to TMZ Sports reports that he offered the woman, who is pregnant, $1 million to abort the child.

George answered two questions about the situation and asked reporters "to respect my privacy."

Alright I'm done with tonight. When you get the ball, don't even think of anything but finding someone else to take the shot Paul, you've been atrocious on offense tonight.

Yep. Love to see him play well. He admittedly makes me mad sometimes, but I don't hate him. David West is having a huge game too.
