Pacers @ Portland Game Thread

[BlazerBeav]

Outlaw should have started the half - he's the only guy consistently hitting a jump shot tonight

 

[Tortimer]

So much for blowing them out! Let's just stay close so we might have a chance in the 4th.

 

[alex42083]

I think Brandon needs to abandon the whole trying to get calls thing, and just go strong at the hoop. He's not getting the calls tonight.

 

[alex42083]

Eric with the jinx

 

[RoyToy]

The effort shown in this game is pathetic, especially coming off two days rest.

 

[Tortimer]

We have consistently been losing points to the Pacers all night except when Rudy/Outlaw and Bayless were playing well together in the 2nd qtr.

 

[KingSpeed]

Has Aldridge tried to go inside even once tonight?

Yes, he's scored inside at least 4 times that I can think of. Watch the first half again.

To make matters worse, Dallas in on the verge of beating SA, and Utah won against Houston.

 

[alex42083]

Need more of that from LA. More post-ups

 

[KingSpeed]

That's exactly what we want. We'll pass Houston and get closer to SA.

 

[KingSpeed]

uh oh

I have to wonder where all of the people who whined and moaned about Jarrett Jack are right now. I consistently said on BBF that he was the one person outside of Roy who could get to the rim or get to the line.

Idiots.

 

[KingSpeed]

OMG they don't miss

 

[Tortimer]

We won't win without defense and Bayless is our only chance at PG and I'm sure Nate will put in Sergio instead of Bayless. We are done!

Jack sucks.

 

[alex42083]

This is absolutely ridiculous.

 

[KingSpeed]

we're good, we're good

 

[BlazerBeav]

There is an inexcusable lack of effort at this point - attack the hoop!

 

[Tortimer]

Thank God Bayless is in.

 

[PapaG]

Jack sucks.

You suck.

 

[KingSpeed]

Another inside score by LMA

 

[alex42083]

Wow.. Travis running the break.. not a good idea..

 

[KingSpeed]

Bayless/Roy/Batum/Outlaw/LMA is our best lineup.

 

[PapaG]

wow.. Travis running the break.. Not a good idea..

...and one...

Idiots.

Oh yeah, how about that game last year against Denver where we at worst were looking at OT before Jack decided to drive 1 on 2 versus AI, got picked and cost us the game? My how soon we forget all of the ugly turnovers.

 

[alex42083]

I'd probably take Jack over Sergio now in hindsight but at the moment, Jarrett needed to go. But I think Jerryd is going to be a better player than Jarrett.

Wow, blast from the past.

 

[alex42083]

...and one...

In general.. Travis running the break is not a good idea.

Yeah, no one has ever made a mistake in the NBA.
