Ralph making excuses--and I think proper ones--that Zubac's fingers are messed up on both hands.

Man this is like an NFC North game. Formerly NFC Central. Black'n'Blue Division.

Old time hockey.

I'm glad we're up 6 points but it seems like we're off right now.

94-77 in the 4th

Clips blow out the 3rdQ with great energy and discipline


but as they say in chess the hardest thing is to win a won game


ooops
lead shrinks to 10

always Doc's strategy

let the scrubs play as long as possible and keep the lead
bring the starters back no sooner than 6:00

Keeping one bench guy in and we are getting zero rim protection and they are getting extra looks. We hopefully can out shoot them to finisg

same old story going back to the CP era is that the bench pisses away the lead

it's just a question of when Doc pulls the trigger to put the starters back in
tonight, they start filtering in at the 7 minute mark

you'd have preferred to wait another minute or two

Lou-Trezz-Gallo-Bev play the rest of the way
our closers

who the 5th closer is--all depends


up by 9 with 4:10 left

Trez shouldn’t be playing all these minutes consistently. He will as he always does get tired by midway of the 4th and sacrifice his defensive effort to conserve energy to score.

I’ll will forever argue guys like MJ and Lebron didn’t do things that are asked of Harrell. Prime Shaq didn’t play a quarter and a half with no sit down time at all. Docs rotations are so bad and it’s worse when Harrell is a energy big man.

Doc's rotations are logical. Zubac is not who you turn the game over to.

LATE ADD: Trezz makes the right switch on the Pacers' last possession. Veteran move. Pacers turnover. Game Over.
