Game Thread 03/04: Pacers vs. Wizards 

Post#1 » by boomershadow » Sun Mar 4, 2018 3:56 am

On Sunday, the Pacers face another opponent that's neck-and-neck in the Eastern Conference playoff race, the Washington Wizards.

In order to win the head-to-head tiebreaker, the Pacers (35-27) will need to win both of their remaining road games against the Wizards (36-27), a tall order against a Washington team that was played well in John Wall's absence.

This is a game that will determine who the current 4 seed is in the East. The winner will be .5 games behind Cleveland. Go pacers!

Seems like we've been saying this a lot recently, but this might be the biggest game of the season.

Ian was the one who yelled "Oh ****" but to be fair he was indeed fouled there.

Nice 1st half for the Pacers let's hope they come out in the third and go for the throat.

OK, job is half done. Team just needs to suffer for 24 minutes more and everybody would be happy.

I'd like to see Joe Young look to score a little more. He sometimes passes up some good shots trying to make the right basketball play, but we know he can put up points if he shoots the ball. It also looks too much like his teammates aren't looking for him. He can shoot. If he's open at the 3 point line, they need to get it to him.

That's my opinion. I still like what i'm seeing from this game so far.

Lance comes in and the turnovers resume. hard to pull bad Lance when DC is out and CoJo starting.

Lance almost knocked a rebound right out of Sabonis's hands into the crowd.

Need to get his head right.

Last game thread we were talking about jinxing the team by tuning in. I turned the game on with about 3 minutes left in the third. We were up by 17.
