[UKRAINEFAN]

This could be a lot tougher than last night. On the road back to back and Pacers playing much better than Bucks right now.

 

[Cugel]

Excited to watch IND. Amazing young talent. Another big test for the defense.

 

[Whyachi]

I think the Blazers will go up big and keep it this time. The Pacers are overdue for a stinker. The slap happy Blazers defense should overwhelm Rick Carlisle's pick & roll & kick & pop.

As of now and at the end of the day, There really is really is nothing else to root for than a better pick in the lottery.

How dare you. We're only 3.5 games out of the play-in! Everything is on the line tonight.

 

[Labinot41]

Go Blazers

 

[cdub503]

is the pacer mascot a fuckin indy car....?

 

[Labinot41]

good start

 

[blazerfan11]

Brogdon is a 43% 2-point shooter, Dead Last on the team.

 

[Labinot41]

let's go Ayton

 

[riverman]

Love seeing them feed Ayton early in this one...he's looking like Lamarcus out there draining elbow jumpers

 

[bemac]

Sorry to burst your bubble, but this is not a tank team. They can compete with most teams and still have their leading scorer to return. They will only get better from here.

 

[blazerfan11]

Is Reath necessary? Why not let Jabari play center?

 

[cdub503]

Is Reath necessary? Why not let Jabari play center?

reath stretches the floor a bit... albiet not the best but he does shoot the 3 so maybe thats why?

 

[B-Roy]

Scoot fights on defense, I'll give him that.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Watch Scoot have his patented 2-11 inefficient night

 

[AldoTrapani]

Another inefficient night coming for scoot this kid sucks.. he should have been a late first rounder

 

[OneSport3]

Brogdon is gonna be that dude that will still be cooking guys at LA Fitness well into his 40s.

 

[B-Roy]

Mathurin is a turnstile on defense...

 

[AldoTrapani]

I don’t even think scoot can be as good as Brogdon at his prime

 

[AldoTrapani]

Brogdon is gonna be that dude that will still be cooking guys at LA Fitness well into his 40s.

You think Scoot can even as good as him one day?

 

[Tince]

Sharpe is too gifted to blunder so many fast breaks

 

[AldoTrapani]

Brogdon is so fucking nice

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Was there a replay on the Blazer feed, Pacer replay immediately showed Ayton's block not a goaltend.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Sharpe fucking sucks too

 

[blazerfan11]

Was there a replay on the Blazer feed, Pacer replay immediately showed Ayton's block not a goaltend.

No. Blazer replay won't cover those in general.
Thanks. I replayed it myself and couldn't tell.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

No. Blazer replay won't cover those in general.
Thanks. I replayed it myself and couldn't tell.

It was obvious on replay I saw; Pacer announcers admitted.

 

[blazerfan11]

Blazer Broadcasting won't show a replay of Ayton's block (that was called a goal tend) but they'll show Pooh Jeter's face for 5 seconds during live play.

 

[B-Roy]

Scoot showing some stuff
