Oh wow. Pacers with a 37-14 quarter, now up 10 on Cleveland

[Phantom255x]

Are the Pels 8-31 because they've missed Zion for a while? Idk, they don't feel like an 8-31 team tbh. Maybe something like 16-23 but not 8-31

Tatum...that was just horrendous from you.

Good grief, Tatum. Real crappy finish to that quarter.

SOOOOOOOOO predicable! Does Joe have a play book?

You have the ball in the front court with 7.7 seconds left inbounding it and the Pels somehow get a dunk out of it.

I think they look good cause we are stinking it up!

[Phantom255x]

2-point lead heading into the 4th.

WHAT COULD GO WRONG

Because everybody knows that we are trying to get Tatum the ball. It makes it too easy. You don't even have to guard anyone else.

Of course he does. Either jack a 3 or dribble into traffic, those are your two plays.

They've had a ton of injuries beyond just Zion - Ingram, McCollum, Murray, and many others have all missed extended time.

But we also tend to make our opponents look better than they are, unfortunately.

If the team falls behind 5+ after the first few minutes of the 4th, I don't care put JT back in there. They basically let Tatum sit half of the 4th quarter and by then SAC built their lead when they could have used JT. They really need this win no matter how it looks

The play worked. Hauser was wide open for a 3. Tatum just did not make the play out of the double.

Tatum, if you don't like Brandon Jennings' calling you soft then do something to counter it. The last 2 games you have actually done nothing.

Jaylen feels due for a hot quarter
