X-Hoosier Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 Only coaches Larry should go after should be Messina and Blatt. Everyone else... Nah. Maybe Nate though.. Blatt? So Paul George can coach? Messina? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

It doesn't matter if you do or don't but a change isn't a bad thing. And dear lord he is nowhere near those guys. They win championships. Except for the fact that he is. He is widely regarded as being in the top tier of the league. For coaches with 500 games coached, Vogel has the 19th best winning record. Of all time. He has a better winning percentage than Doc Rivers. Since Vogel has been the coach of the Pacers 4 different NBA coaches have won a championship and they aren't going to be able to hire one of those guys. Why keep Vogel? The players liked him. The fans liked him. He won consistently. ThompsonHoosier and Parakeet Jones 2 Quote
biteoftheapple Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 What the Pacers really need is someone who can recruit and build a roster. Larry Bird has proven that he has serious shortcomings in this respect. Parakeet Jones 1 Quote

That team will not take a step back with whoever they hire, and won't take a step forward till roster changes Quote

That team will not take a step back with whoever they hire, and won't take a step forward till roster changes .... Seriously? If they hire Jackson or Shaw and there is minimal change to the roster the team takes a step backward with the only reason to watch being PG and Turner. He turned a team with Stuckey, Ellis, Jordan Hill, LaVoy Allen, CJ Miles, and a young still not good defensively Turner and made them a top defensive team still. Not to mention PG still isn't where he was two years ago defensively coming back from injury. KB0, Parakeet Jones and ThompsonHoosier 3 Quote

Trish Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 Roster is terrible, still should've beaten the Raptors though. Blow it up, trade everyone not named Turner or Paul (unless an amazing deal comes up..) Quote

HoosierAloha Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 And the refs continue to be turrrble... Toronto player hop skips and jumps before taking a shot to end regulation without a call. lol Livingston is tossed after the ref clearly missed him getting whacked in the head on a dunk. It's as if the refs mentally flip a coin to determine if they're going to make a call. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Naturalhoosier, Alford Bailey and Crimson and Cream 3 Quote
Crimson and Cream Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 In old news Steph Curry is amazing. My gosh I've missed watching this guy. I would compare him to a video game but I'm not sure that even does him justice. Alford Bailey, HoosierAloha and X-Hoosier 3 Quote

I would compare him to a video game but I'm not sure that even does him justice. Nope. Because you can't do what he does in a video. I'm not joining. Try it in 2K... doesn't work. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using BtownBanners mobile app Edit: 2K even knows you can't do what he does in the game. And they have zero clue how to make it possible other than just making him a 99 in three's. Quote
KingPG21 Posted May 15, 2016 Posted May 15, 2016 McMillan being promoted is yet another sign that Bird is completely out of touch with the current NBA Quote

LIHoosier Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 This year, the NBA draft lottery is filmed in front of a captured audience. Sure hope the 76(loss)ers don't get the #1 pick. Quote
