Who else misses Frank Vogel btw?  

Eh, I guess? I mean, he is better than what we've seen with Nate. I mean he tried using a broken/outdated offensive system, and eventually the league caught on to how horrible it was. Nate's team is more broken in terms of who he has to work with than Vogel too, because apparently Bird has been playing way too much NBA 2K. 

 

Look at Orlando, they're horrible. Their roster is broken, but so is the Pacers.

I don't understand the hiring of Nate. Should have looked external. Wasn't on board with firing Vogel, either.

I didn't hate moving on from Vogel, he had some serious flaws. But I never liked the McMillan hire. 

[TheWatShot 15,531]

I'd take Vogel back in a heartbeat. No way this team would be this bad defensively if he was still here.

99.9999% of Pacers fans...the other being Nate McMillan.

Not even remotely accurate. I know many fans (myself included) that were ready to move on from Vogel. Now having said that, most fans weren't thrilled with the McMillan hire and I'm still not sure that's going to turn out well.

[KingPG21 6,593]

So even with that horrific performance against the Warriors the Pacers have a chance for w 3-2 WC trip. Including at the Clippers. I don't like this roster at all outside of PG, Turner, Teague, and I guess GR3, but people act like the Pacers are horrible, but they aren't and have been playing better recently.

I can't fathom a $56 million dollar deal that is enough to retire.

Poor Yogi, he must be living out of his suitcase.  Sent back to D-League and then recalled to Brooklyn.  Was questionable for last night's game because of a sprained ankle.

Gordon playing very well off the bench and had a great shooting night.

2nd straight game VonLeh was a DNP Coach Decision.

Monta Ellis is just awful at all aspects of the game at this point.

[TheWatShot 15,531]

The Pacers are currently down 12 in the fourth quarter to the worst team in the NBA. Remember, they also needed overtime to beat this team at home in addition to the Sixers. 

 

Boy, firing Vogel sure took care of a lot of problems, didn't it? 

[IUfan_Charlie 3,867]

This team is embarrassing. About to lose by double digits to the worst team in the NBA. 

[Class of '66 Old Fart 91,316]

7th straight double-double for Westbrook; first player to do this since Michael Jordan in '88-89 season.  Nearly had a quadruple double with 8 TO's.

Saw on another site that they've played 8 games against the 4 worst teams in the league and went 4-4 in those games.

Troy Williams starting and beating Warriors by 25 so far. Troy +10 with 11 points so far. Grizz, soon to be 17-8. Unreal.
