well damn...


Yeah you can't trust his judgment at all

He's in his own head and doesn't really see what's going on ... some of that is maybe really not in his control

lol

I don't know, but I guess he's always been untrusting of most players

It took him fouling out. Thibs absolutely refuses to sub him out even for a second

So after game 2, a lot of my emotional energy for this season’s team was completely spent. Like I was disappointed, angry and depressed all at the same time.

I am surprisingly indifferent at the moment. I only have so much energy to vent about the same old reoccurring issues.

If they win game 5, great. But right now, I am not going to set myself up for disappointment by hoping that Thibs and this team will string together enough consistency to win 3 games in a row.

It sucks to admit, but Indy owns us. This team won’t win a title or even get to the finals as constructed.

Thibs did great things for this franchise, as did Hart, but it’s time to move on from both - and KAT. See ya you zesty as$ btch

Thibs went down with his ego

Mikal and Hart nightmare games but Thibs ego. Lost games all year due to this dumb ass. Way to lose it in big moments. Brunson went RJ mode iced out Towns who brought us back lmao. They 100% going to scapegoat Kat but we all saw what Happened. Thibs Went with his boys baby.

Y’all enjoy this

The pacers don’t have to worry about benching their star players because they aren’t playing like ass. Kinda says it all I guess

That’s where I’m at. They just played better. Still yet it should be 2-2 and at least we did get a split to force game 5 but, yeah. Not sure how we win 3 straight against them


One game at a time. We shouldn't let Hali hoist the EC and ECF MVP trophy in MSG.

Someone has to be the scapegoat and I think it's going to be Thibs.

Kind of a good point ... He just changed the lineup because he was losing but basically went right back to what he wants to do.

Maybe he's never had good instincts for the game. After all, he was a defensive coach and then he was a guy who inherited a dominant player.

Whatever it is, he's got zero ability to make this team work.

He knows one thing: Try to let Brunson bail his ass out.


He reminds me of my P.A.L. coach, didn't teach **** and relied on a one on one game. Then when we played teams that set picks and ran actual plays we got overwhelmed. I learned that when I was 12-13... He has no excuse.

yeah. if we game 1 this would still be a series. but they sure look like the better team. they stop our guys easier than we stop theirs.

how does that change anything. You still going to get Brunson/KAT isolated on defense

we lost because we gave up 130 pts.
