    That's now 3 straight games where they get down by 20 points.

    Even with their wins in the previous 2, this season has started to become a joke. all the excuses are starting to sound hollow.

    They didn't have training camp.

    No one did.

    They're incorporating a "new defense" and haven't have time to do it.

    Bullshit, the Pacers coach is in his first year and their defense was much much better.

    Nurk is still out of shape.

    just how out of shape was he for fucks sake?


    hopefully his time off gives him some time to get his head right and his game right. But god damn, this teams defense is so dumb. like they think they can just outscore teams or depend on Dame (and now CJ) to save them in the end.

    i'm now off the Simons bandwagon (tho that's probably not the correct phrasing/word). He gives them nothing.

    And for fucks sake, Stotts is not the coach this team needs anymore. Unless we want disappointment, mediocrity and disappointment. If that's what you're aiming for, he's definitely your man.

    again, it's not THAT they lost, it's *HOW* they lost.

    Hold on, you honestly think this team is going to go 46-14 the rest of the way?

    At this point, even 46 wins TOTAL is probably out of the realm of reality.

    Is there a Blazer Bigs Curse? Even when we went to the WCF, Kanter has that bad shoulder.

    Honestly I can’t wait for the rebuild one day. This team surrounding these guys is getting stale

    I give the pacers credit they play as a team on both ends. We are going have games like this because we don't play team basketball majority of the time. Another problem is we haven't had that consistent 3rd scorer this year. But these games happen to everyone in this league. Now I guess we will see what we have in Giles.

    If I was 7 feet tall I’d refuse to play for the Blazers.

    Trade for Tucker and let’s small ball this shit.

    were you given 3 weeks to live or something? This team isn't ending the season 53-19. There is zero, zip, zilch, nada, none, nope, no chance of that happening.

    Exactly, outside of the Lakers win, the wins haven’t been impressive and the losses have been downright ugly.

    I don’t want to get too complicated or into the weeds with my analysis of this game:

    That was a stinker.
