Pacers are a pretty good team when they get on track. Just too much for the struggling Lakers.

Lakers are young and don't know how to close out games yet. They should be able to figure it out eventually.

Meanwhile, it's fun watching them develop.

True. How did Randle do tonight?

Did alright. Didn't play much in the first half because of foul trouble. But did better in the 2nd half.

I like that kid. He should be pretty good.

I like him too. I think his ceiling is being a Zach Randolph type. Which is plenty good enough.

 

[handicappers]

He was big around here when he was in high school. Probably the best player in the state, maybe the country.

I think I'll be up late watching this Dubs/Blazers game

Utah up 7 on the Spurs with 4 to go....In San Antonio

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

UTAH hit 15 3 pointers

It happens. Probably could have used Danny Green to slow that down a bit, maybe not.

But, sometimes the other team is feeling it from downtown.

SA has never started 5-0 in its history which is a neat little piece of trivia for such a good franchise.

Ingram is trash

False. They're just bringing him along slowly

 

[Black Adam]

Wrong

why? it's the truth, isn't it...?

Lakers-Pacers under 2 minutes. 1 pt game

my boys made it close...

ah well...

Good game by your Pacers. Congrats.

When the Lakers went up 108-107 with a little over a minute left, I thought they were going to win.

Then Paul George remembered he's Paul George.

Can't even be mad because he's my 2nd favorite non-Laker.

LOL didn't watch it for two reasons...

1) I worked my sixth in a row tonight.
2) My Cubs are in the world series.

and for good measure...

3) If we were down late in the 4th to the fucking Lakers we must not be all that good this year.

Don't know why Al Jefferson is seeing less than 15 minutes a night to start the year. He needs to be our Enes Kanter for us to contend.

1. Bummer. Read about that on the other thread. Good on you for being stand up.

2. Watching the Series right now.

3. Nah. The Lakers have some good young talent and will be in most games in the 4th quarter this year. They don't know how to close games yet.

If you can catch a replay of the game, you should watch it. It was good. Paul George was Paul George. Myles Turner looks to be pretty darn good too. He had a couple of monster blocks.

Says the Indians fan.

Wrong says the Giants

Warriors heating up. I may get to go to bed early

 

[navamind]

Hell of a win for the Jazz, especially without Hayward.

I have never been a fan of the 3 point shot.

Best Warriors game of the young season.
