Cheated out of that game. I hope the pacers lose every game going forward

They lost Haliburton...

Oh well. Not our problem

I could understand getting a call wrong, but not when you can look at a replay.

Ultimately its our fault because we should've hit more FT..

However the end of that game can only make one wonder if Vegas needed a little help....
Back to wanting Joe fired.

Nice try.  Very tough ending. Indy shot lights out and Cs kept pace. JB was magnificent. Unfortunately missed his last 2, including the one he was fouled.

I don't hate the Pacers, they played hard.  No fault to them, C's just never got engaged in the 3rd quarter and had to scramble to get close at the end.  We needed to play some better defense in the 2nd half. 

But the refs absolutely screwed us on the Brown shot no-foul call.   That was insane.

Game should have gone to OT, but the C’s really didn’t deserve to win. They didn’t play with enough effort on either end. Hope Tatum and Hauser are back soon.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Both games Cs missed 9 free throws.  Cost them tonight.

The poor freethrow shooting did us in. Bad calls and all. We should control what we could control.

I hate the Lakers, the 76ers, the Heat.   Indy doesn't even come close to those 3 for me.

It had been so long that I had almost forgotten what it felt like to get hosed by the refs. This was a great reminder tonight.

Crazy that we definitely would have won that game without the overturned call. Pacers would have been out TOs and only 3 seconds left.

All I can say to make myself feel better is at least it wasn’t a playoff elimination game. Otherwise, I am kind-of stunned and am going to have a bad day tomorrow.

Also not great that we have an incredibly tough b2b coming up
