Shoot, they had never even beaten the Pacers in a playoff series prior to that incident…
It was on that weekend in November of 2004 that David Stern decided he no longer wanted teams to win through physicality and team play, and that his preference from that point on was soft, star-oriented rosters.
The fact that the average NBA fan today considers Draymond Green as “tough” only further illustrates the point.
Indiana was ringless prior to the brawl in Detroit too.
And after.
LMFAO Lord only knows how how I missed this thread and it's dimwittery..."the 2004 Pacers team beat any team in any era."
Except for the '04 Pistons that beat them 4-2 in the ECF right?
Do you ever think before you post homeristic nonsense?
And as far as being tough. That malace at the palace. Didn't Ron Artest run into the stands to fight a fan instead of getting into with Ben Wallace?
Excuses excuses.
League the last 15 years has been soft as tissue paper.
Mere reminder that prior to the incident the Pacers were a model franchise for reloading. They tore down an aging roster that made the finals in 2000 and proceeded to win 61 games in 2004.
Yes, this thread IS all about excuses, eh OP?
How DARE the commissioner penalize the Pacers for fighting with fans in the stands! Beta cuck!
It was all a setup, I tells ya...Yes, this thread IS all about excuses, eh OP?

@HurricaneDij39 your team is still ringless, Cvnt!
You know what else Miami didn’t have prior to that season? A Dwayne Wade with any NBA playoff experience.Shoot, they had never even beaten the Pacers in a playoff series prior to that incident…
