The non-basketball plays were hurting the game though. The excessive free throws were not popular among die-hards nor casuals - players playing for the free throw. It's just not fun to watch.

next thing they need to stop is intentionally fast break fouls. Make them 2 shots and the ball just like a flagrant. If you aren't making a play on the ball and its solely to stop a fast break it should be penalized.

Fast breaks are some of the most exciting plays in basketball way too much fouling to prevent fast breaks.

I don't think the game is all that broken. Of all these players who were top fifteen in free throws last season, only Giannis and Durant ever won a chip. The top 20, you can add Curry at 17. The top 25, you can add AD, Leonard, and LeBron.

Silver will see this backfire on him.

This is interesting. I like Lauri but the future pick, Nance, and Covington is nice also.

You should probably buy him out so he can go play for a contender

I should probably not :lol:

Come trading deadline he will hold value or be a great piece for a deal...

A decent half from both teams. I need contributions from more than just Doncic. Especially from downtown.

Buzzard · Post #172 » by **Buzzard** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:05 am

The threes won't fall and that is nothing but trouble for my Pacers. The 1st 6 to 8 minutes are critical. We will either jump back into it or suffer the loss.

I think Zion has forgotten how to dunk ROFL...

charlotte is tough. Great interior presence and a lot of guys that can create there own shot

quietly built a really good young squad.

Bey is a better player than this; but tonight is Ingrams night. No doubt about it.

3toheadmelo · Post #176 » by **3toheadmelo** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:20 am

Final score: Hornets 103 Pacers 81

Congratulations Charlotte/Hoffa. This was all you, all game, after the 2nd half started.

So far Dallas has the captain obvious answer. Score more points than Klay.
