There goes the lead.

What the hell happened to this team?
The Pacers are shooting .510 from the field and .460 from the line. It's amazing we even had a lead.

I don't know what is happening with the team, but it's been happening for a 6th game in a row now.

We look more like the Suns from the Nash-Amare-Marion era than like the championship team from 2 seasons ago.

Fixed.

You got this wrong, there's no D in Rajon's name.

He's starting to turn into a version of Allen Iverson, where he plays no defense to speak of, and gambles for steals. Meh.

So what? We only pay him $11.000.000 annually...

If you are comparing him to Allen Iverson in his prime that is not really an insult...

I will say this Jim O'Brien is a very good coach for making mediocre teams perform at an average level (as we all can admit). Nonetheless, this game is really starting to annoy me. Even though its irrational, I am starting to feel more nervous about the pats game tomorrow. Guess I am a typical boston sports fan....
I don't know what you're talking about. Indiana is a mediocre team which performs like a mediocre team. They are 3-3 with 0 total point differential per game, and were shooting .430 from the field and .290 from three entering into this game.

We come to town and make them look like a good team. Either this is going to stop, or we're headed for a first-round exit these playoffs.

Why leave House on Ford there on a defensive possession?

I've just turned the game off.  There's no way I'm going to watch a team going through the motions, even if they eke out a win against an inferior depleted opponent. I'm sure the score will be in the papers tomorrow.

I think the wrong people are taking three's. Ray needs to come off huge screens and look for the three ball... i love going to the basket at the beginning of the game but we need this.

Or maybe we should get him in the post.

Because, sadly enough, House probably provides better defense at PG at this point.

Nice sequence right there.  And I agree Rondo's man D has been suspect lately, he just tries to reach in a poke the ball instead of staying infront of his man.

Williams is playing OUT OF HIS MIND good so far. Replacing Powe and then some.

Shelden and Ray are our most efficient and consistent players this season, and they're saving our butts right now.
