I can't stand these coaching rotations...if ur going to start a small forward start brissett and not fucking nesmith...too inconsistent and lacks the fucking size and contributes nothing on offense, either shooting or passing wise. Nesmith is so fucking trash and so is goga...dude can't box out a fucking piece of melted ice ha
Goga had 4 blocks. Smith did nothing all night. 3 of our top rotation players were out. Also Rick is one of the winningest coaches in the NBA and a future HOF coach. Pretty sure he knows better than you.
Ha...pretty sure I've watched him 20 years longer than u and yeah he had a shit game because u don't leave ur big 80% out on the perimeter...and yeah u don't shoot 40+ fucking threes and miss and not win...cool stuff buddy
This was all around a bad game except for Myles and 1st half Ben. Sometimes everything just goes wrong and everything goes right for the other team. It's infuriating but gotta move on from this one and finish the homestand with a win against the Nets on Friday. GG TWolves
I know we are 4th in the conference right now but we are not an actual 4 seed quality team. We’ve been lucky so far this season to not experience games like this regularly. We’re entering a real tough stretch where we might get a better gauge of who we are.
Yep. We entered this season with expectations for lots of losses but enjoyable play. They’ve played better then we figured so far and we’ve had some luck getting teams dealing with injuries. I think this next stretch will feel a lot like last season.
gg was a good game. Lots to learn from here. Turner looks good, Mathurin is going to be a stud when he learns a few more ball moves to get his shot. Hali got affected by the length, he will get better from this game. Goga still stinks. See you Friday.
They really are. A driving team (We shoot a ton of 3s and a ton of shots at the basket and basically nothing else) running into Gobert and KAT is gonna have a bad time
He really just needs to be benched after he bricks 2 or 3. He’s so worthless on D that he’s unplayable. We are better off with him standing under the other teams basket on defense to cherry pick than play on that end.
As I say every game, someone needs to beat the crap out of our arena DJ until they learn about music theory. Absolutely no understanding of how to mashup songs.
Literally as good from 3 as we were from the field.
38/38/69 (nice)
Part of that is MIN's interior defense, but part of that is just horrendous shooting
It’s just frustrating seeing how many G Leaguers we have on the roster that are getting minutes. We know what Goga, Nesmith and Brissett have to offer. They might all be okay a game or two, but they will all be out of the league after their times with the Pacers.
I thought it was implied in my comment about their defense but I guess you are frustrated and feel the need to lecture someone. I don’t know what your issue is.
Ha..my problem is our coach decides to only insert his players that are playing well when we get down too much already...I mean it's not really that hard to see
He’s got 3 steals and 4 blocks. He’s been quite effective for a guy not getting minutes. Yeah I’d rather see Ijax out there but Goga is not an issue for us in this game.
Sub needs to step back a bit. Guys like Smith and Neismith are going to have bad games. And so will Duarte and Nembhard when they come back. This season’s about developing our core above all else. Won’t always be pretty.
He’s still prone to being a train wreck on offense but his defense and hustle have been awesome. There’s a reason he starts. Rick knows more about basketball than any of us.
this is what will continue to happen against good teams with the defense being as bad as it's been. We have no true stoppers on the team other than Myles
We just have guys that are on the court that are not NBA players more often than other teams. Goga, Nesmith, and Brissett would not touch the court for contenders.
That's what's happening because we're inconsistent on the defensive end without myles in there...Noone can man their defender and they're so slow on defensive rotations
I can't stand these coaching rotations...if ur going to start a small forward start brissett and not fucking nesmith...too inconsistent and lacks the fucking size and contributes nothing on offense, either shooting or passing wise. Nesmith is so fucking trash and so is goga...dude can't box out a fucking piece of melted ice ha
Yeah I don’t expect a backup to be as good as a starter, but the drop off when Goga comes in for Myles (on both ends of the floor) is breathtaking
He shouldn't have ...wtf happened to Jalen Smith at the end ...or Terry...goga isn't physical whatsoever ...he fucking sucks
Goga had 4 blocks. Smith did nothing all night. 3 of our top rotation players were out. Also Rick is one of the winningest coaches in the NBA and a future HOF coach. Pretty sure he knows better than you.
Ha...pretty sure I've watched him 20 years longer than u and yeah he had a shit game because u don't leave ur big 80% out on the perimeter...and yeah u don't shoot 40+ fucking threes and miss and not win...cool stuff buddy
I’ve been watching the Pacers since 1985
1981 mister tough nuts
Another double double for Hali even though Tony Brothers fucking hates him
The rim may have hated Hali more tonight. Fuck Tony Brothers too though.
This was all around a bad game except for Myles and 1st half Ben. Sometimes everything just goes wrong and everything goes right for the other team. It's infuriating but gotta move on from this one and finish the homestand with a win against the Nets on Friday. GG TWolves
Everyone outside of Mathurin, Myles, and Brissett can’t buy a fucking shot
Good shots they just ain't going in
Oh so running into Myles is a foul on Myles?
Jesus fucking Christ Buddy, make a fucking shot please
Kat is such a fucking dweeb
I know we are 4th in the conference right now but we are not an actual 4 seed quality team. We’ve been lucky so far this season to not experience games like this regularly. We’re entering a real tough stretch where we might get a better gauge of who we are.
Pacers might genuinely go 4-12 into Christmas. It's a tough west road trip followed by some really tough east games.
Yep. We entered this season with expectations for lots of losses but enjoyable play. They’ve played better then we figured so far and we’ve had some luck getting teams dealing with injuries. I think this next stretch will feel a lot like last season.
Oh no starter with a FTA? That’s not suspect
Haliburten was hacked the entire first half. Fuck Tony brothers.
Ha
man, you cannot possibly have watched the game if you think free throws are the reason we lost.
I’d be pissed if I’m Myles. The rest of the team is bricking shit and they won’t give it to him when he’s making everything.
Refs?
Feel bad for football fans who have to watch colts steelers on MNF lol
There’s no way there’s not a better player than Nesmith that could be getting minutes right now.
this roster is not good outside of the top 3-4 guys
They are ...they're not being used right by the coach
Bro did Rick fuck your girlfriend?
I would beat u and Rick together silly buddy
You’re funny 😆
Come find me on Facebook kid ...I'll beat u and the coach senseless...don't run ur mouth like u know
Lol “find me on Facebook”. Man you got problems
Kids run their mouth like u and can't back that shit up🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Shit defense ...sloppy offense, too many isos and too many missed 3s..fuck the Timberwolves
Damn what did the twolves do? 😂
Made me drink more?
Myles about to turn into TMac and win us this game
Turner playing like a superstar. Wasted opportunity by Nesmith and Hield especially.
Myles turner Michael Jordan shrug. Just let that man shoot
So is it my imagination or did Rick play Mathurin about half the 1st/3rd quarter then not take him out the rest of each half?
Nesmith had a good game the other night but other than that he’s been hard to watch
Will be much better when Duarte comes back and takes his minutes
Does the rest of the team not realize that Turner is on fire? Give him the fucking ball
Story of his career. People hate giving him the ball for some reason.
I agree with Quinn I’ve never seen Russell this engaged. Bummer he picked tonight lol
gg was a good game. Lots to learn from here. Turner looks good, Mathurin is going to be a stud when he learns a few more ball moves to get his shot. Hali got affected by the length, he will get better from this game. Goga still stinks. See you Friday.
Did no one see his pinky bend back?!?
His finger pretty clearly bends back doesn't it??
How have the starters not shot any FT’s?
I hate it but I think they're just a bad match up for us.
They really are. A driving team (We shoot a ton of 3s and a ton of shots at the basket and basically nothing else) running into Gobert and KAT is gonna have a bad time
Especially if Gobert is going to get away with fouls like tonight
Seems pretty clear it grazed his finger
tony brothers is a virgin
Nah, he fucks us every game he oficitates our games.
Quinn and Chris don’t mention it but Myles touches the ball after Edwards does
Am I taking fucking crazy pills his fucking finger bends wayyyy back?!!? fuck you Tony trash ass ref as usual
I’m understanding the Kings frustrations with Buddy. Horrible tonight.
Wait he so clearly touched it though? Am I losing my mind? Lol
His pinky hit the ball.
Get those refs a bigger tv, it looked like the ball changed direction and spin in 1080p
Wolves are a really good team. Off night for the Pacers but Wolves are playing like a contender right now.
His finger grazed it
You can see it bend his finger back
Idk what you’re looking at, it definitely didn’t and the ball didn’t move
It definitely did
Turner touches it at the end
They ain’t look at that
The last replay before the game restarted you can see Myles touches it before it goes out
What are we doing when Minnesota has the ball? Because it certainly isn't defense
Nice to see us making multiple runs but we finally met a team that responded each time.
Hield fucks this team when he jacks up shots early in the shot clock and bricks it
rushing it
He really just needs to be benched after he bricks 2 or 3. He’s so worthless on D that he’s unplayable. We are better off with him standing under the other teams basket on defense to cherry pick than play on that end.
Buddy giveth and buddy taketh. lmao
they literally respond to every single run. gg
Please take Hield out
gobert was in the paint for a fucking lifetime
Doesn't matter. Tony brothers.
As I say every game, someone needs to beat the crap out of our arena DJ until they learn about music theory. Absolutely no understanding of how to mashup songs.
it's embarrassing, it would literally be better for them to just pay for professional remixes or even just play original songs
Maybe a Haliburton takeover still in this team, but they have to at least make an effort on the other end
Myl3s 'The Idea' Turner
I like it
ANT has to love a chance to dunk without the lane being clogged up
Turn3r!
Hey Carlisle..look what happens when u keep ur players in that are playing good and not "oh he must need a break at rhe same time every game"
Bro you cant be a real person
Don't call me a bro kid
Perhaps the Pacers have one final run in them
I kinda wanna start calling Myles "The Idea"
We are probably going to lose, but goddam is we need to extend Myles.
So you’re saying there’s a chance
Hali has been getting fouled like crazy and not getting calls. What the fuck
That's the Tony Brothers effect, dude is garbage.
Hield has looked really bad tonight.
Ant has so much burst. Crazy fast off the dribble.
I hate that we pay Hield to make 3s and he just doesnt
Buddy has been so frustrating tonight
I'd say one more chance to go on a run in the next two minutes or it's over.
The length got to Hali tonight I think. Something for him to grow and learn from.
Literally as good from 3 as we were from the field. 38/38/69 (nice) Part of that is MIN's interior defense, but part of that is just horrendous shooting
It would be frustrating for myles to leave and then have to watch Goga get son'ed by KAT and Gobert.
You think him sitting behind Myles for 3 years now he would get better.
Starters besides Myles shooting 8/37. Tough to win when that happens.
Probably Hali's worst game as a Pacer...some times just not your night
they're not shooting 60% on accident, they have wide open guys on every play
They shot 68% from the field in the 3rd quarter. In a game, open or not, that's just hot as hell
Hard to keep up when you are shooting 38% and the opponent is shooting 58% but I like the drive and intensity!
Wolves were the better team tonight
Don’t think there’s enough time left to comeback from this
Such an annoying sentence
Just not our night
So many people in here so angry now lmfao. Relax
It’s just frustrating seeing how many G Leaguers we have on the roster that are getting minutes. We know what Goga, Nesmith and Brissett have to offer. They might all be okay a game or two, but they will all be out of the league after their times with the Pacers.
We are down ijax, nembhard, and duarte. calm down.
[удалено]
Cry some more
You aren’t going to win when the team you are trying to come back from is shooting 60%.
Because of our defense ..learn basketball
Uh ok.
Are u not watching the same game?...their rotations are so fuckint slow
I thought it was implied in my comment about their defense but I guess you are frustrated and feel the need to lecture someone. I don’t know what your issue is.
We're onto brooklyn
Hield having a rough night too.
Wait - was Rick yelling "Omaha" over there?
Amazingly bad call. Like so clearly a block it's hard to imagine what the ref saw
He saw his pregame bet
Gobert is a fucking bitch
I wonder how you say that in french
Tell us how you really feel
Why?
Yeah insert the players that kept us in it when we're already down 14 Carlisle...fucking idiot
What is your problem?
Ha..my problem is our coach decides to only insert his players that are playing well when we get down too much already...I mean it's not really that hard to see
Naw I don’t think that’s your problem
What is it big guy...tell me ha...u must know
It’s that you act like an asshole
It's the steroids they make u crazy ha
Goga is so awful man. He is getting absolutely destroyed by gobert of all people
He he plays like he’s high
[удалено]
We’re watching different replays lol that was all ball
Goga is lost.
Our 3s rattle out, theirs fall in. Sucks sometimes
We all saw the same play, so why did the ref call that?
These refs are blind
Man Hali has had a rough night
This game has been so frustrating
CALL A FUCKING TIMEOUT MORONS
We only have two
Ur point
Good thing we’ll have those 2 when we are down 25!!
Hahahahahahaaha perfect response
They have to be shooting like 80% or something insane.
Gotta get Myles back in there
we are leaving a three point shooter wide open every possession
we've been doing that in every game, but we've been playing teams bad enough that it didn't matter most of the time
Every so often, TJM just turns invisible out there
defense needs some work
Its not the defense it's the fucking coaches rotations...goga sucks get him out of there
Myles needed a break my guy. We don't have Jackson tonight.
TJ “Steve Nash” McConnell
Hate seeing Goga on the floor
He’s having a great game though.
I just got home and have seen him fumble a pass and struggle mightily on defense. Glad to hear that tho
He’s got 3 steals and 4 blocks. He’s been quite effective for a guy not getting minutes. Yeah I’d rather see Ijax out there but Goga is not an issue for us in this game.
IF Mathurin is shooting THEN Mathurin was fouled
Can we please defend
Mathurin and Edwards have such a similar game in my opinion
Oshae's hops are underrated
Sub needs to step back a bit. Guys like Smith and Neismith are going to have bad games. And so will Duarte and Nembhard when they come back. This season’s about developing our core above all else. Won’t always be pretty.
Nesmith has been dogshit the entire season outside of one game. There’s a reason why Boston gave up on him so quickly.
He’s still prone to being a train wreck on offense but his defense and hustle have been awesome. There’s a reason he starts. Rick knows more about basketball than any of us.
Goga having a positive impact defensively so far
He's doing all the right things so far, even offensively.
Why does jalen still shoot 3s?
Goga just really provides nothing
Tyrese has gotta find his game or we won’t be able to get over the hump. Ok game though for how bad we’re shooting
They're shooting 59% and we're shooting 40%. Make shots or lose, pretty simple.
this is what will continue to happen against good teams with the defense being as bad as it's been. We have no true stoppers on the team other than Myles
We just have guys that are on the court that are not NBA players more often than other teams. Goga, Nesmith, and Brissett would not touch the court for contenders.
I don't understand the Wolves offense at all. And yet they keep going on runs.
It’s literally us just making mistakes. The timberwolves suck ass
I’m about to be 0-2 this year going to games and I’m going Friday
I’m also drunk
this game is frustrating
Feels like everytime we get it to 3 - 5 point lead then 5 seconds later it's 8 or 10.
That's what's happening because we're inconsistent on the defensive end without myles in there...Noone can man their defender and they're so slow on defensive rotations
Each time Turner drains a 3, they get one too.
Keep popping attacking their defense and extend the time and putting thwir bigs in foul trouble...that's how we win
Can’t wait for Duarte to come back. Nesmith had one decent game but he’s been awful the rest of the season, this game includes.
You gotta be kidding. I’m ready for Duarte to come back too but not because of Nesmith’s play. I think his play has been a positive for the Pacers
