Playoffs Game 6: Pacers vs Heat, 8:00 EST Thursday

[PDXKnight]

The world is rooting for you guys. 6 down, win this!

[Boneman2]

Let's go.

[Nuntius]

One final push, guys. Gooooooooooo.

[Moooose]

Oh well, guess that's all we've got.

[Moooose]

After draining all my frustrations after game 5, i am not so disappointed as i should be right now.
We have a young team, a young coaching staff. This season is like a gauge for us, a test run. it just turned out we played good in the regular season and the guys are bonding well.

There is a big hole to fill, as evidenced by this series - experience.
One season older, one season wiser, one rank higher.

Go Pacers!!!!

[ndnow]

Just come to say great series, the pacers really pushed the Heat in this one.

Love hibbert and west's games, hope you guys snag a deron williams in the future to fill out the team.

[Boneman2]

There is no excuse for Hibbert not to be dominating every game. Even with Bosh in the lineup Indy was suppose to have an advantange, that's why his play is even more disappointing.

Besides winning game 3 by himself, his passion, offense, and decision making have sucked and his impact on games 4,5, & 6 was minimal.

His mentioning of Tim Duncan was a backhanded comparison and he could not live up to it. I think he definitely felt pressure after he made those comments. Loose lips sink ships.

4 yr / 10 per max. He is not worth a max deal, and most of the time in this series he hasn't played like he's worth 10 per.

[LeMVP]

He's a 7'2'' with a nice touch. If you don't max him somebody else will.

[Nuntius]

No excuse for this series. We lost fair and square. We failed to deliver. Miami played better down the stretch and proved that they wanted it more.

But it was a great season. And we have to appreciate what this team gave us. We should be proud of them. Let's hope for a great off-season

[Nuntius]

hope you guys snag a deron williams in the future to fill out the team.

We hope this as well. So, thank you.

[Nuntius]

I'm rooting hard for a Philly/Indy ECF. Hopefully you guys can pull through.

Thanks a lot. We failed to deliver. Let's hope that Philly pulls it out.

[Moooose]

hope you guys snag a deron williams in the future to fill out the team.

We hope this as well. So, thank you.

Ohoho. That's number 3 on my wish list after 1) Nash and 2) re-signing Hibbert and keeping the team intact.

There were a lot of times when you're hoping Paul George, Hill, or Hibbert will have a monster night, but i think it's too much to ask.. for now. Having a point guard like Deron who can score at will and plays hard would be a big big help. The Pacers have the league's best supporting cast next to San Antonio, problem is we don't have that go-to-guy, YET.

This is going to be a long summer. I'd shift my focus on the draft, and free agency.

[Miller4ever]

Seriously, passing was obviously our biggest problem by far. Let's fix that.

[Moooose]

^^ Yes, because without a go-to-guy we always resort to moving the ball A LOT and most of the time, unnecessarily. If i can remember, we were 29th in the league in assists. Having a good point guard will make us better, and it will mold our young guys Paul George and Roy Hibbert.

[Wizop]

it sure looked good for a long time. if we could have the last 40 seconds of the 3rd quarter over, the 4th would have been entirely different. we basically played them even in the 4th but allowing the lead to balloon from 2 to 8 at the end of the 3rd was a run we never got back. nice to see the crowd stay to the end and give the team a standing ovation. we'll be back.

Miami was a different team after DWade spent a day watching film with Tom Crean. let's hope he can do as well with next year's Hoosiers.

[PR07]

There have been games in this series where we've lost because we didn't play to our strengths, this wasn't one of those. Kudos to this team, they battled to the end...and showed remarkable improvement this year in putting Pacers' basketball back on the map.

However, we have to get better. The passing and ball handling of this team is atrocious, especially when you have big men that you are unable to get the ball to. I'd love to see Steve Nash or dare I say, Jeremy Lin as well.
