Pacers are toast if we are not on the back end of a back to back. I'm not sweating this result. The old back-to-back excuse... Whatever that's pathetic... Our coach is a clown and needs to play deeper into the bench... Right on all points!

With all We gave the Spurs, we shoud have gotten Dejounte Murray back! In five games, thus far, White has scored 11. 9, 13, 3, and 11 points with a total of 14 rebounds and 14 assists over that 5 game period. Honestly, not sure he was worth all we sent to SAS. At least, not yet.

Losing Schroder and Richardson puts even more pressure on Tatum and Brown to try and score even more! Our only hope is if Pritchard starts getting 25 minutes a game and giving us 15 or more points per!

At least, not yet. I agree time will tell how this pans out. I think we were 9-1 right before the trade deadline and have been 3-2 since, but we need time. I do think a fair argument can be made that only doing the Theis trade would have been enough. in fact since Houston released Kanter anyway, it could have been Schroder, Bruno and second for Theis. Which would have left the roster at Horford Rob Grant Theis Kanter Tatum Brown Richardson Langford Nesmith Smart Pritchard that team would have been under the tax line at around $133.6M, leaving about $3M in space for FA signings to fill the roster. in that world, DJ Augustin would be a nice addition ad the 13th player is that a better team than we have now, no way to really know at this point. One can only say it would deeper right now and Boston would still have a first next season.

When you look at a game like yesterday where you got nothing from GWill, thankfully PP stepped up and contributed. But it's a tough ask for GWill AND PP to be expected to contribute for this team to be successful. Oh, and JT and JB CANNOT have a bad game, or we're done.

You guys admit our depth is gone and then you complain about them not having enough energy on back-to-back games? Do you like to have your cake and eat it too? Lol

Almost every team is treating us as a barometer so we are getting their ultra best effort. No matter how good you are that wears you down over time.

News flash: we haven't won more games in February in over 40 years.
Let's ratchet down the whining.

We actually have 2 of the top 10 3 point shooters?!
Imagine what the J's could actually do for a professional shooter?

If a guy averages 5 for 15.
That is better than Grants 2-4?
No way. Some of those misses go to the other team and is virtually a turnover.
