Random thoughts from last nights game; I reiterate that this is a mediocre team. Short handed, tired, whatever tonite excuse is they are not good enough to get it done. No surprise that Grant Williams followed up his team leading -16 last night with a -10 tonite. Not sure what some posters see in him but dude is undersized, non athletic and not as bright as announcers always say! He is less than a JAG IMO. Tatums stats say he had a decent game, being 1 rebound shy of a triple double. Eye test says differently. He had 27 points but took 26 shots to get them! He was a +6. Lastly he missed ANOTHER game ending shot. Superstars make them shots. I don’t remember Larry missing one of them, ever. TT with 17/10 his best game since week 1. One of three starters to have a positive +/- rating with a +5. (Trivia- who was the third? Answer below) So where was he in the 4th with the game on the line?? On the bench! Real smart Brad!!! Dude only played 22 mins so he should have had gas in the tank! Any NBA team that has Javonte Green on the floor at the end of a very close game is closer to being a lottery team than a contender. No surprise Green “led” the team with a -15 in only 14 minutes!! Most surprising stat of the game; the horrible looking Jeff Teague was a +5 in 23 minutes, (trivia answer) While teams continue to drive the lane multiple times a game with no D to be found, (Scal mentioned this several times),Taco sits on the bench getting splinters in his a**. RWill with a nice game with 9/8 but only 1 block? Sure looked like he had more. He clearly altered several shots. C’s gave up 35 points in the 4th quarter! Contenders get stronger as the game goes on, not wear down. Great post!

THe Kings are a good team. We lost a good game to them quite short handed and Tatum didnt have his best game. I dont think this is one we overanalyze. I think we move on. I still dont understand why we play 2 Centers together so often, when neither of them are our best center. Less 2 centers in at a time. More RWill in as our only Center. Maybe when we get healthy.

shooting with size and can help defensive focus to = Myles Turner! But But But.. Turner had a poor game last night. Ist one in weeks .... C’s gave up 35 points in the 4th quarter! Contenders get stronger as the game goes on, not wear down. TT played most of the 4th.. Probably not related i'm sure.. Thompson did not play in the 4th quater! Not even 1 second!!

Did Tristan get any minutes in the 4th quarter at all?
All but the final 3 minutes

Those teams that passed on Tyrese Haliburton, are gonna be sorry for a long time!! He's gonna be the real deal! The Kings have a good young team, I don't see them giving us Barnes! Maybe Bjelica!

Turner probably shouldn't have played last night: Pacers: Center Myles Turner played through a sore right shoulder that left him questionable, but he had just three points, two rebounds, two steals and one block in 23 minutes. Turner entered the night averaging 14.5 points, 6.9 rebounds and a league-high 4 blocks.

Seems to be some confusion. I dozed off some.

I heard the stats somewhere that Kyrie/Durant shot in the 20s% with some filter on the stat for shooting the last shot to tie/win a game. Something along those lines. The problem was he took a shitty shot, with time on the clock. Just rushed it I’m sure your right on thiis, just seems like the C’s can’t make the money shot.

Jaylen running the offense a little more? How about playing Thompson in the fourth quarter because he was piping hot at 17 and 10 through 3 quarters?

It’s the Pacers’ first time on national TV this season. 23 hours ago – via Twitter ScottAgness Injuries, Myles Turner, Indiana Pacers

Tatum has technically hit 2 game winners this year right? I guess the MIL hit the shot clock but it still technically went in

Correct Da Da all BS Got the lowdown just now.. Turner admited as much after having a few drinks at the titty bar after the game.
