Whats going on with PG? He's looked totally lost and doesn't seem to even care. lmao.

indiana spiraling out of control right as they head into the playoffs. wow.
 
the Pacers have locker room issues, and all signs point to Lance Stephenson

George Hill and Lance almost fought on the bench last night apparently, cameras didnt catch it though but they needed to be separated

its too bad, the january Lance Stephenson who averaged 15.7 ppg, 8.3rebs, 5.6 apg could have detracted suitors for Hayward, but hes tailed off and so have the pacers
 
Paul George's last 10 games he is averaging 18 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assist and 3 steals.


Its too bad Gordon Hayward isn't "struggling"........
 
Paul George would be better suited in a Pippen role. It's always been the biggest reason I don't see them knocking off Miami; they don't have a legit 1st option.

he was supposed to become that legit #1 option guy. every year he improved exponentially.

and he was playing like legit superstar early in the season. at one point he was avging 24/7/4.5. i was like 'this guy gonna be a top 5 player'. lol


something definitely happened to the team and the way they play. they are not attacking the basket, ball isn't moving, and body language has been awful. they are playing like us. lol

Yeah, idk what's going on with the team, but I don't ever see George becoming a true #1 option. There aren't many guys that can reach that level. He's the perfect sidekick, though.
 
Paul George has improved every year and made big improvements coming into this season as well. The league has adjusted to him by this period. He'll probably continue to get better every year, and pretty soon he'll be a superstar. His offense was way overhyped in the playoffs last year.

I agree with Spy in that Indiana doesn't have a legit number one option on offense and it's really been showing in their latest string of poor offensive games. I do, however, think they can beat Miami just because Hibbert is such a bad matchup for the Heat, but they aren't able to beat the Western Conference champion imo.

I agree. They still match up well with Miami, but I can't see them beating the likes San Antonio or OKC, if they advance to the Finals.
 
No clue what's going on in Indiana. But I could imagine it has something to do with stardom and getting distracted.
 
well, let's see if he can come through in the playoffs. i still expect them to give miami a great series.

right now knicks are like praying for them to be #1 seed. lol
 
just lost to raptors. wow, never seen this kind of collective choking without major injuries.

lol at roy hibbert and his 2 reb. lol
 
is this the biggest implosion of a top seed team in the history of the NBA? this is quite NUTS. I think there are some SERIOUS locker room problems.
 
are they try to lose on purpose? play charlotte instead of hawks/knicks?

this really is crazy. i watched the 1st half, and they were sleep walking.

never seen anything like this in basketball. i've seen some major choke job in baseball and football. but in basketball without major injury? never seen it. been watching religiously since 85. i really don't remember this type of collapse from #1 team.
 
I think their biggest issue is that Roy Hibbert's body just can't take a full NBA regular season, even at 30 mpg.

Pile on that their best player is 23 years old and going through a lot of off court distractions, just not a good recipe for success.

It's just the regular season and they are still in the playoffs. If they get booted out in the 1st round then you can start talking about choke jobs.
