If management has issues with two coaches in back to back seasons when is someone in management getting fired?

Brogdan is very good. Justin Holiday is a good role player. Caris LeVert when healthy is very good. TJ McConnell is good at steals LOL... Sabonis is a star. Myles Turner isn't as good as he thinks he is. Their team is missing a couple of contributors. In other words they sorta suck and a coach can only squeeze so many more wins when they have no bonafide game changers or a bench that scares people.

Brissett is showing up all of their other mediocre talent.

Sabonis is the most overrated player in the league. Anyone that spends some time watching their games know how hollow his stats ring.

It's funny. I think Pacers fans actually think this is one of their best teams they've had this century. It's just a bunch of B+ talent. They'd call us idiots for saying our talent is greater.

Sabonis is a great player. The problem is the team is horribly constructed and from the sounds of it have some players with some serious character issues.

Absolutely disagree. He's a player that requires the ball in his hand to be of any value. While he racks up the assists he's not nearly the passer some of his peers are. He's a volume guy. Stoppable when you match his physicality rendering him just another bruiser with limited range.

I'll never forgive Nate if we get into the play-in because of him.

What's his on/off numbers? Watch more Pacers games. I'll try to catch a few more. But yeah, of all the all stars this year, my most overrated for sure. The last guy of those 24-26 I'd wanna have.

Sabonis is the least of Indiana's problems. I can't say I'd blame Nate either.

Malcolm Brogdon is injury prone and is currently out.
TJ Warren has been out most of this season and won't be back any time soon.
Myles Turner is out.

They are missing quite a bit of their best players. It's been a rough season in Indiana.

Imagine they didn't dump the Oladipo time bomb? They'd be on par with Chicago's fall in the standings.

Did Jeremy Lamb (in a Lovers hoodie) get into it with Greg Foster for a bit there? Looks like a major blowup coming for the Pacer's coaching staff.

The Pacers won 45 games last year with Sabonis being their best player. And you said he is overrated but who is overrating him? Nobody ever talks about him. He plays in Indiana. lol.

The reality is he's a great player. He's not a superstar but he's a great player.

He was absolutely playing out of his mind earlier in the year. He has great foot work and moves. I find his game fun to watch for that reason. Not really fair to only judge him based on the end of the year when his team is struggling so badly. I agree he's overrated. But hardly the most.
