Turner doesn't have much playoff experience, still pretty inexperienced, and it sorta shows

The Pacers are poorly coached. This game would be closer if they ran set plays.

Kevin Love with the obvious push off lol.

Pretty likely that McMillan is the worst coach in the league.
Also, I think my sense of how much teams normally score at different points in the game has been completely destroyed thanks to all the Rockets games I've watched
Lue has been garbage as well. He's supposed to be known for defense. lol

Blame the firing of Vogel. Shit is hard to watch. Paul George deserves better.

In the playoffs, when he wants to be? Yeah.

Lance was a good start, and I think Thad Young, Ellis if made into more of a 6th man, CJ Miles, Glenn Robinson III, Teague, and maybe most importantly Myles Turner is a core that they can work with. Rakeem Christmas should get more minutes imo.
They don't need their bench big men, or Aaron Brooks, much (Brooks for a ridiculously low amount of minutes might be ok).
But yeah, first priority should be the coach.

Tony Brothers and Scott Foster are 2/3 of the refs today
Where's playoff Teague
http://www.indystar.com/story/sport...pected-sideline-pacers-jeff-teague/100406936/
He tweaked his ankle on the last game of the season, but I'm not sure if it was a major thing or not
Where's playoff Teague
Hopefully just adjusting to the injury he got

Teague stays with a bum ankle lol. Them ankles made of glass.
It's too bad hes a marginal upgrade to Marcus smart he'd look good in green.

Smh doesn't even know that PG13 would obvious be in the rotation behind Jaylen Brown, not Marcus Smart

I don't understand why Pacers are letting LeBron work the switches.

I was excited to see PG13 and Lebron to start guarding each other, and then the Pacers defense switches to Teague and lets Lebron do anything he wants with him.
He was advancing so slowly too.

Holy shit if Teague gets switched onto Love or Lebron again and the Pacers defense doesn't react...

His secret was getting a haircut and shave. When they slumped in January, Lebron had that Amish beard, remember?
Also, Lebron seems to want to wait till the clutch or the 4th quarter to guard PG13, not sure how sustainable that is
They all know already that the Celtics will sweep them no matter what, so there's no point in getting excited

Lance at PG to avoid the god-awful Teague switches might work better. Lebron and Love aren't out, but it seems to be working in this short stretch so far

Oh shit here comes Lance Stephenson

I think the idea of the bigger lineup, for more flexibility on switches, is right, it's just that when Lebron is on the court Paul George needs to also be playing,

All these former Hawks getting abused right now.
Might be foreshadowing.
