Raptors at Pacers

Post #1 » by **Grang33r** » Tue Dec 7, 2010 1:54 am

Now in the 4th... Pacers up 93-77! Rush and Granger with 21 each. Pacers are shooting very well tonight, had a little pump in the road in the 3rd where Toronto cut the lead but for the most part it's been all Indy. They held a 24pt half-time lead.

Raps have 57 pages already...mostly self-loathing

116-96.... Tyler, Price and D.Jones have made an appearance. I guess the crowd chanted "we want Tyler" lol...

It's a shame how JOB treats young players. But, on the flip side, as long as it works, who can blame him? Rush is turning the corner and Hibbert has emerged into a star. I guess just gotta hope he knows what he's doing and that his luck isn't about to end.

I am disappointed that we took the opportunity against a struggling opponent not to fine tune our game, work on our sets, practice our fundamentals... but just chuck and run.
We are a foolish bunch of poorly coached, lazy azzed, undisciplined BOYS.
But the talent has improved.

124-100 Final.

Well done, Pacers.

to me the most encouraging things this season so far, and I know it is very early, is the improvements of Rush, Hibbert and McBob

We don't do game threads for when we play high school squads... just kidding. lol

Everybody was too busy to make one early on.. and apparently everyone was too busy in Indy too since they only had like 6k fans tonight. lol

Rush +13
McRoberts +19
Bayless -11

that draft day trade just keeps looking better and better.

Hibbert has gotten most of the love, but Rush has really been coming into his own lately.

we looked good tonight, as we should have against an inferior opponent..we really needed this game, along with the next two vs. the bucks and cats, as the three after that vs. hawks, bulls, and lakers will be tough, but winnable...we really need to get the win vs. the bulls

I just don't get why Paul George hasn't been activated against lesser teams like the Kings or Raptors. Having Dahntay activated makes sense against upper-tier opponents because of wing defense and experience guarding some of the awesome wing players that teams like LA and Phoenix have.

But against the likes of the Kings and Raptors? Granted, garbage time is never a guarantee in the NBA, but they're more likely against teams like that now that we're starting to win games we should (with the occasional exception such as the first game in Philly.) JOB may not think he's ready for game minutes, but how's he supposed to be ready when he's rocking loafers on the sidelines and not suited up?

George inactive is probably a combination of match-ups and needing to work harder at practice.
