Not as bad as Scam Hauser.


Time to put this man on the bench and forget he exists! Give somebody else a chance. Brissett contributed so much more and played so much less.


I hope KP gets back so we don’t have to see all those bricks by Hauser.

Hauser should have put on a Pacers jersey not an ECF champs shirt :lol:

Early in the season fans were confused why Joe lets JB handle the ball.

Joe said they want JB to become a better all around player.

It's paying off now.

White and Jrue are doing all the little things to impact winning, while the Jays get all the headlines. Jrue making winning plays in crunch time on both ends while White has turned into prime Hakeem and has a 12:1 assist to turnover ratio the last two series.

We still need Hauser.

Just give him a chance.

But it will be a short leash with KP back.

We need him and his shooting definitely. We can blow out the mavs if he shoots 5/7 from 3, then PP shoots 4/6.
But if hauser continue to brick shots, its better to give others a chance. I say if he bricks 2 wide open 3’s, better yank him out fast.

Pacers pace (pun kinda intended) is unreal. It will be good for our defense to face the slower Mavs even though they present different challenges. Our guys were dead tired at the end of this game

Any credit for Joe for how brilliantly we have executed down the stretch in this series?

Voted for Jrue for VC. Amazing pick up

This playoffs was his best timeout usage the whole year.

Seriously was. The Assistants finally convinced him to call timely Timeouts.

Is there information it was the assistants? Joe said in pre-season he studied what he did wrong last year and one of those was not calling timeouts when he should have, that he needed to learn he should manage the game differently in the playoffs. Because of this I have backed him all year to call them when needed in the playoffs regardless of what he did in the RS and he has been true to that word.

True.

People will be surprised if the Cs will have an easier time against the Mavs than the Pacers.

Myles, TJ, Pascal, Obi, and Nembhard will really tough to beat.

The Mavs' supporting is not that good.

Not only did Joe call the right timeouts, he also made the right choice of using X and not Luke.

pacers have 3-4 guys who can create their own shot consistently off the dribble, which makes their motion offense so difficult to defend.

dallas has 2 guys, and their some of the best in the league, but they do a lot more create in iso mode and kick out to spot up shooters, similar to what we do.

except the guys we kick the ball out to are significantly better off the dribble than basically everyone on their roster. their team is luka, kyrie, and a bunch of guys with very specific skillsets and many who are very limited outside of spot up shooting.

He has been good this postseason IMO. Overall, I actually thought he was better the first two rounds, although it's tough to judge because we didn't really need to pull out many stops to win this series.

I am giving Jrue a lot of credit for how we executed down the stretch this series; its not just about the plays he made, its about his poise which I presume has rubbed off a bit on the rest of the team.

I am giving Joe credit for managing the end of games competently, and also for our hot starts. Last season, and in '20, we were always getting off to slow starts, not the case this time around. Everybody remembers the end of game 3, but maybe we're not in that position if we don't spot ourselves a 7 point advantage in the opening minutes. That game we took an early 11-4 lead, tonight we went up 14-6 early.
