Its hard to play when you are in foul trouble.

3 of our starters are.

7 pt game, could be worse with this officiating. Refs destroyed our momentum and gave the Pacers a bunch of free points... some of the fouls were legit but there were so many blatantly awful calls

Smart has been abysmal this quarter
Fixed that for you.

Then again, plenty of blame to hand around. Why did we finish off the first half with no Irving on the court and Rozier taking a horrible long 3? I thought you could sub in between free throws.

Need Horford and Tatum to come through tonight with all the others in foul trouble.

Save Kyrie for the final 5 minutes.

This was covered earlier. Kyrie had three fouls. Reasonable to not want him to pick up the fourth. If he had, it would a problem now.

Going to be tough to win this playing against two teams. Need to hit some big shots.

A 8 on 5 win tonight would be very gratifying.  Not quite on the level of when we beat Cleveland a few years back on the road with the Bradley 3 when it was 8 on 5.  But I really want this win.

Got to take it to the hole.  Deep shots will not keep falling.

Lance getting thin in the back. Going to look like Drexler sooner than later.
