Yuck. Bad day in Indiana. IU and Butler both lose and Pacers stumbled in first half. Need a big 3rd.

Those 4 trays from Myles were most welcome to still be able to win this game.

Anybody else also fearing Oladipo Pacers season 1 efficiency was an outlier?

The clutchness is great, but his overall play in his second season before the injury wasn't AS worthy IMO.

It is like with Vic back we relaxed.

We could use Morris but all the Knicks who could help us are paid too much to fit into a trade we'd like.

4-22 in his first 2 games back. That's rusty all right.

Biting the bullet and looking forward to better games of him.

The General also confused with such presidency.

Disappointing game, but I think we need to expect some results like this over the next month while we find our feet with Victor. He's not got his touch yet - not going to panic yet, it's very early days.

Goga is terrible at setting screens

Come on Goga, just look at how Domas does it

It was like there was a kid on the bucket in the 1st and 4th quarter. Wish we had gone back to the pick and pop with Myles more in the 4th.

Bottom line is we are really lucky as fans. Rarely do we come out and lay an egg against a lessor team like NYK.

Gonna take time to gel with Vic back.

I know Vic is trying to get back in a rhythm after missing so much time, but 14 shots seems like a lot especially when they arent falling.

Thx for the warning 8-)

but all I mean is that one of our previous leaders (Brogdon) also struggled and that Vic (our designated leader)
returning might have something to do with that. Different roles etcetera.

So of all the people in the world, who has the clearest role/job of them all? Donald Trump. Clarity about roles on our team, that's all I mean. I'm not speaking negative or positive about Trump here. Our team has to find it's ranking again, each their roles.

Vic returning and struggling just shakes up our team hierarchy. Other players have to reinvent their role, especially Brogdon, also because Vic is still very rusty. Mike Pence has had the same role for almost 4 years. That's what I ment with Trump Time.

We gonna need another period of time to get everyone adjusted to their new roles. And that is why we will struggle more now.
