    We did have a problem with turnovers, but yeah. We still scored enough to win.

    You mean defense . Effort is there. Just not smart effort. This team is fucking stupid on that end. They want to switch Dame onto PG sometimes. wtf

    True. Offensively it's all there. Defense is just something beyond. Tired of watching guards being switched on guy a much bigger. Dame usually does a good job on those switches but it hurts still

    I agree and disagree. I agree that, normally, this would be enough to win, when your SG and PG score 33 and 34 respectively.

    However, I disagree that it was enough in this case. When the other team has 5 guys who score double digits, including one who scores 37, and you only have 2 who do, then that is going to have a major effect. Our Offense Strategy should have been, in hindsight, to be to pass the ball and get more people scoring, rather than just Dame and CJ.

    However, all of that being said, like the other 13 losses so far this year, it's our lack of Defense which is the biggest factor here. Not the Offense.

    We're up 26-11. We got it made!

    Couldn't get enough? Watch it again, with me! Two pleasures for the price of one!

    When you click on that link, you have to wait a minute for the game to come on.

    Lillard has made several amazing long shots! This will be a night to get drunk with happiness!

    Up 37-21. Lillard has 19 in the 1st quarter. This will be a yawner!

    The Pacers just missed about 4 shots on that possession. We have our defensive mojo going tonight!

    Meyers is shit. Being a big man that can shoot is only an advantage if you can also do the things big men are supposed to be able to do. Otherwise you may as well just play another wing.

    Why are they showing the game again in Indiana? It's 10:00 at night there and it's not like they have anything to celebrate after what will be a big loss for them. Can't figure it out. We are playing great!

    Vonleh dunks! 42-19, 1st quarter almost over. Pacer play by play guy is very impressed with Lillard.

    44-31, end of 1st quarter. We shot 63%. Too easy. Maybe I should turn it off and get drunk with happiness.

    No, getting drunk would be a sacrilege to a blowout like this will be. I think an acid trip would be appropriate! Would Emily's Rules of Etiquette approve?

    I'm glad we finally won't be embarrassed this game. They're talking about former Pacer greats like Jermaine O'Neal. I've heard that name before.
