  1. I would take McMillian over those two
  2. Like I said yesterday to Hoopster maybe Brad Stevens is ready to come home LOL!
  3. Probably would have been best to not bring kids back on campus this semester.
  4. I never did well in grammar or spelling but did well in math. The thing is about replacing McMillian is that when I see candidates for openings I don't see anything better.
  5. I think they outrebounded us the first game as well. It looks like a sweep to me especially losing the first two games at home LOL! I don't know if it is McMillian or just the players not moving and passing but this offense looks a lot different than it did earlier in the year. McMillian is a little above average coach but can't seem to win in the playoffs. Also he has done well with the Pacers with winning with less because we are always injured. Also if you make fun of me for my spelling of the Reds then look how you spelled Miami LOL!
  6. McMillian needs to change the lineup. Starting 3 guards with Warren and Turner is not working because they are getting beat on the boards. A lot of Miami's 3's are coming off of long rebounds and kick outs fo r3.
  7. Miami players move and they move the ball by the pass where the Pacers try everything off the dribble. The thing is that besides Warren hey have no one else that can beat guys constantly off the dribble.
  8. Victor is killing the Pacers when the ball gets stuck in his hands. It seems like the others moves the ball but she VO gets it he just pounds the ball. On defense he is guarding Duncan Robinson and he had hit 6 3's.
  9. Man the Pacers offense is so stagnant compared to what it was in the first part of the regular season. Sabonis is such a good passer and screener it allows the offense to flow. Without him it appears we just try the pick and roll then the guard just goes one on one.
  10. Watching nthis Pacers game but it sure does not feel like I am watching a playoff game. Usually if the Pacers play bad I would get yelling at the TV but watching this is almost like watching summer league game.
  11. Even in the bubble the Pacers gets screwed by the refs. Even the ESPN announcers was going off on the call.
  12. Was watching the Raptors/Nets game and found another reason to hate going for 2 for 1 at the end of the quarter. The nets get the ball with 33 seconds and Lavert just goes one on one and shot a fade away 20 footer that missed. The next possession the nets only have 6 seconds that resulted in another bad 3 point shot at the buzzer. so instead of getting at least one good shot they got two horrible shots.
  13. Just heard this terrible stat for the NBA. The show 90 day fiance had a higher rating than any NBA game on Friday. I know having games in the middle of the day will hurt ratings but this is not a good sign. I know people take off for the NCAA tournament when the games are on during the afternoon but I don't see that happening in the NBA.
  14. Maybe Brad Stevens is ready to come home LOL!
  15. I don't think he is great but when I look at the candidates out there when there are openings just don't blow me away. I just don't know who would be out there that would be an upgrade over him. Also the offense I think is hurt with the starters is that there are no one to spread the court. Warren has been shooting great down in the bubble but the rest of the starters are not great shooters. It seems like when the team is healthy and the second unit the offense runs great. You had both Holidays and McDermott to pen the court up Also they say that Sabonis really helps the second unit because he is a great screener.
  16. Just haven't matched up well with the Heat this year. They play very good defense and has a lot of length and athletic ability. To me it always seems like the Pacers just does not have the really long athletes that really help on defense. Turner is a great shot blocker but that does not mean he is a great defender. it seems most of the his blocks are coming off his man for the block. As a one one defender in the low block he is not great.
  17. Last couple of years that is he story of the pacers where they just can't stay healthy. That is why I think McMillians has been a pretty good coach with winning as much as they have. His problem is not being able to get out of the first round in his career.
  18. Well it looks like the Pacers has the lost the home court advantage LOL! Seems like they have let the Heat play pretty physical defense and did not call a lot of fous when warren was going to the basket.
  19. Just seem like early on he was trying to do to much on his own
  20. should have kept the bench in especially Sampson over Turner.
  21. My bad but VO had two or three TO's trying to drive between two defenders
  22. Grogisch(?) is killing us and should not have Aaron Holiday guarding him.
  23. The offense seams to run better with the second unit until the last possession.
  24. I like Sabonis at the 5 then at the 4 I want a long athletic guy who can shoot. Turner tries to play that way but he is not that athletic. He is an elite shot blocker but the rest of his game is average.
