Pacers have a magnet ball from the mid range. Please investigate this NBA

Not saying Kornet has played well this series but not having his length as an option is really limiting us without KP

Pacers on pace for 104 points in the paint tonight. One way or another that has to stop

Hauser is an elite 3 point shooter according to the stats... But it feels like he is either red hot or complete ass all the time.

Called him getting exposed in the playoffs all year long. Pritchard has not been much better. Neither has Kornet who we are all extremely happy to not have to see in this game. Our bench is pretty trash.

MVP Tatum so far but Joe's ass rotations are frustrating as hell.

Working the refs should be the coach’s job. Refs don’t seem to appreciate hearing from the players anyways.

Joe is the **** problem. We can’t sustain a lead when our **** head coach treating this like a normal regular season game. Classic playing down to opponents.

He was shooting 37.5% coming into the game which isn't good for a specialist but not as bad as it feels.

That's all good, but do you give credit when they deserve it too (and I don't mean the backhanded kind).

Gave Hauser every opportunity to do something and he hasn’t done anything besides game 1 or garbage time game 5 against the Heat. By far the most disappointing player on the team these playoffs. Complete no show, when we need a basket to cut the bleeding he can’t make a wide open three

Assuming they make it to the finals, Mazzulla needs to realize you can't play this bench too many minutes against whoever comes out of the West.

Hauser is good for eating regular season minutes. He doesn't cut it in the playoffs.
