Aaron starting so Lamb can develop continuity with 2nd unit.

With 8 minutes left in the 4th, the Pacers are down by 40 points (100 to 60).... What's plan B?

With all due respect, not a good sign when those two are being swapped between the 1st and 2nd units. They both belong there.

I am not sure Aaron even belongs on the second unit. Seriously, I just dropped in to see how bad it ended up being. When I saw he was starting, I changed the TV to something else. You just knew it was going to be ugly.

I watched into the second half and then gave up and watched a couple of episodes of The Hunters on Prime. It was certainly more interesting than the game although I thought it bordered on Comic Books at times. maybe I'm just not in the right demographic though.

but, no, I don't think last night had anything to do with the coaches.

Agreed.

There is something wrong with this team. It started when Vic returned, but I'm hesitant to lay it at his feet. It is like the guys are now disconnected. Are they all concerned about their current and future roles with the team ("pecking order" sort of thing)? Is there some sort of turmoil in the locker room? I'd hate to think so, because they all seem to be well adjusted people.

I don't know the answer, but something is wrong. It reminds me of the collapse during the second half of the season a few years ago. I want to say it was the season of the "Hibbert implosion", but it might have been a bit prior to that.

Perhaps it will end up being a blessing. Something needs to change, and changes are more easily made after a disappointing season.

Sorry about Lamb, as a past ACL injury survivor, I'm hoping he's alright.

I do think it's on the coaches. At this point in the season, guys should at least look like they know what they're supposed to be doing on offense.

The issue isn't lack of talent.

Nate in his Charlotte pregame said the team had watched the first 3 quarters of the Toronto game. They couldn't watch the 4th quarter just like I couldn't.
