Pacers @ Bucks: 2/11/09

chatard5 · Post #41 » by **chatard5** » Thu Feb 12, 2009 3:36 am

I was watching UNC Duke and I changed to the Pacers when Duke was up like 8. Looks like a nice comeback from UNC. I hate them both, though, but UNC less.

And I hate when the Pacers get my hopes up beating the Cavs, and then smash them and lose by 12 to the Bucks...

Beat the Magic, lose to Thunder, beat the Cavs, lose to Bucks. This is ridiculous.

I think most people will disagree with me, but I hope Granger doesn't get too many minutes (at least down the stretch when they try and play defense) in the ASG. He needs to rest that knee. He jumper has been off. Shooting a whole bunch of 3s the night before won't help much either.

The give-up attitude at the end really pissed me off.

Only the winning team is allowed to dribble out 10+ seconds off the clock.

Try to make it closer. Keep trying. There are principles in the art of basketball that you should follow. Sure, the result may be decided, but the game isn't over.

I agree. Quality over quantity. Granger should go in, prove why he belongs, and then sit.

However, if the game is close and they need three-point shooters, they may call on the then-crowned three-point champ: Danny Granger.

Pick and roll defense was ugglier then Leo Rautins biased commentary.

Just lose every game. Honestly, I hate when they give me hope by beating a good team, only to follow it up by losing to a **** team. The Bucks arent bad, but their best players are all injured. Come on. Jesus, I really hate this team.

Our commentators are honestly just as bad.

You sound like a Lakers/Celtics/Magic/Cavs fan talking about the Pacers.

We allow 65 points in the second half. Our defense is pathetic. It was a must win game, we played well through 24 minutes, and then it just got worse and worse.

hahaha he's the worst, esecially when it comes to Calderon. It's a shame he gets paid to kiss Jose's a** all game long.

Indiana has awesome consistency.

Clark Kellogg is the best commentator. Quinn Buckner can be a little biased and annoying. Personally I think Chris Denari is just ehhh, I liked Al Albert more.

At least those teams are good. We show flashes and then just suck. Really, really aggrevating team.

I agree. I really like Clark Kellogg. Buckner is kind of annoying. He laughs at lot. Half the time I'm not entirely sure what he is talking about. Denari I like. Albert bothered me. He always made the lamest puns. "Foyled again!"

I think he means when those teams lose to the Pacers and are like how the hell did we lose to the PACERS??!?

^^What he said.

I know what you meant when you said that. What I am saying is it is different for them. They are good teams, they know they are good teams even if they have a flukey loss to a crappy Pacers team. The frustration for me lies in the fact that we play to the level of our opponent every game. We are not significantly better than anyone. We are not significantly worse than anyone. It makes me mad when we beat a really good team (ie, a team we shouldnt beat) then follow it up by losing to a team like the Wizards.

Would you rather it be backwards, though?

It was a back-to-back on the road. I know we can't use that excuse for many losses to other teams, but the Pacers have what I call a mentality issue. When it comes to the tough opponents, they flip a mental switch that makes them try that extra bit, but then an easy opponent rolls in, and all of a sudden we're just lollygagging around.

We haven't won on the road since Phoenix on Jan 7th...
