AWFUL game, don't care that it was close on the scoreboard. Incredibly sloppy, especially in the fourth quarter. We got bailed out by being able to shoot so many free throws b/c they were in the bonus. Without it, we would've been blown out. The pick and roll defense may have been even worse than the offense was.

Nate's gotta figure this one out. The team doesn't look good as it stands - we certainly would not be good enough for the 4th seed in any other year.

Blah ! Pretty hard to win playing from behind in second half just trading baskets. I guess though I should have known Warriors were better record coming in (2 over 500) and Pacers are now 7-10 at home. Tough game for Myles again. Pacers couldn't stop the easy buckets for Wiseman and Paschall down low. Up next in a couple days another struggling team in the Celtics 3 game losing streak currently and 3-7 in their last 10. They're 8-5 at home and Pacers are 8-5 on the road. Hmmm

I HATE seeing Sabonis blitz defensively to half court and we’ll past the 3 point line. It does no good and only puts unnecessary pressure on the roost of the court to stop the guy that just rushed past Dom into the wide open lane, as well as defend heir own guy. I get wanting to play defensive pressure overall, but we HAVE to be smarter about it overall. McConnell can and SHOULD guard full court. But not Dom.

Who was he trying to guard at half court? I didn't watch the game

Draymond. He was picking up at the 3 point line, and if Draymond was dawdling deep looking at the court, Sabonis was rushing him, to which Dray was then just quick stepping around him and attacking the lane for an easy pass out to whomever was left uncovered by the assisting defender.

But, this has also been a full season type thing. Sabonis is picking up at or past the 3 point lane, and sometimes even blitzing all the way to full court to defend someone bringing the ball up. And he should be going under most all picks, instead of trying to fight over. I get that Nate is preaching “attack everything” but it’s also putting us in position to be overloaded and weak.
