Pre Game



This isn't good news. Utah by 20 - 50 pts.



It’ll be a hard game for us. Even more so without Haliburton and Nesmith. Also we played last night. And on top of all this, Utah has been playing great basketball of late



I expect the Pacers to win.



Game started so late, someone needs to blow someone out so I can sleep at the half.



the jazz r redhot we dont got a chance



Utah has figured it out since we last played them.



First meeting was at Indy 134-118 Pacers win.



Unbelievable careless play by Myles to pick up foul 4 and 5 in first minute of the second half. Could have avoided the 5th.



Jazz are one of the hottest teams in the league right now, and we’re on SEGABABA. Uh oh.



Did the Utah Department of Transportation design their jerseys?

The same guy who designed our construction-themed jerseys probably designed these. Wasted opportunity for the Highlighter company to not grab a sponsorship on those jerseys.



I’m not expecting much against a red hot jazz. Maybe kinda competitive game at least.



Losing to a team starting Kris Dunn in 2024 would be an incredibly Indiana Pacers thing to do



That’s got to be one of the toughest road back to backs you can play. Nuggets are the defending champs and have an insane roster including a 2x MVP and the Jazz are extremely hard to beat at home. Plus both games you’re playing at a high elevation.



1st Half



Jesus that was ugly!!! But we are still hanging around!!! Need more hustle or this will get away from us!!!



Rick made it to 65 seconds before calling an anger-time out tonight. Progress?



Back-to-back at altitude! Thanks NBA!



9 pts for markannen for the first 4 mins lol



Have we gotten a single stop ??



“Wake your *** the **** up” what is that about ?? Jazz coach ?



Will Hardy looks like if you told AI to generate a coach specifically for a team in Utah.



Nothing makes me think of MLK more than being in Utah. /s



It is DEFINITELY the second night of a back to back lol. Only Buddy and Myles looking decent so far



I don’t understand how Tyrese can wear these winter coats and hats while sitting on the bench.



We just look really bad tonight. No one is playing together. Did you see when Benn called for Myles to set a screen and he just didn’t do it?



It’s the curse of the Denver > Utah back to back. It’s a tough one although last time we did it we did win but it’s usually the opposite.



I feel like Kessler is just a walking moving screen every possession



Neismith and Nembhard take turns getting some random injury every other day



Are we tanking? Leaving Nemby on Lauri is like point shaving



Why do we have a point guard guarding this big ************



Nah seriously… Nemby is 6’4 and and lauri is 7 foot. That’s crazy they thought that’d work



8-point deficit feels like 20



How did the Bulls let this guy go lol



Havent even gotten my tv on and ricks already burned a timeout



this tough to watch. feels like zero shot at a W tonight.



Getting cooked and Clarkson is not in yet



Lauri heard me talking about not being sure if he was good or just someone had to score on a bad team. Now they're rolling and he's still getting numbers.



Myles Turner just doesn’t go up to block shots the way that he used to. It’s funny to say that as he’s currently top 10 in the league in BPG but I swear he’s lost some of his touch



Jazz on pace for about 200. Might want to get a stop sometime ever.



defense schmefense



Olynyk can play on my team any day of the week.



2nd Half



14 points is doable with this team, let’s go pacers!!



Keep chipping away. Plenty of time.



Please dear lord sweet baby Jesus let that shot get nemby on track



Imo if we were healthy this jazz team would probably not come close to beating us



Kelly olynyk looks like a mountain goat



This can’t be same guys from yesterday.



For the Jazz they sure play a lot of Disco in their stadium.



If we come back from this somehow we should get some of those picks the jazz got for rudy.



Looks like we will hold them below 130 and at the end of the day that's all you can really ask for.



Myles just got out jumped for that rebound by a 6’1 guard



How are the Pacers shooting 42%? It feels like they are missing everything.



I only watch the pacers so can someone tell me if I'm tripping.

ARE WE THE ONLY TEAM IN THE LEAGUE THAT HAS GUYS WHO REPEATEDLY GET TWO HANDS ON THE REBOUND BUT SOMEHOW FAIL TO SECURE THE BALL?!

It's like 5 times per game at least. Are our bigs just not coordinated? Looking at Myles and Jalen mostly.



If the visiting team misses 2 free throws, un married Utahans get to have seggs once.



Poor Oscar getting his lunch taken by Kessler on multiple blocks.. I like the fight though



We can’t win at their home but at least we fight or compete..keep fighting



Where’s the offense??? Hali made these players look better than they are!!! Don’t overpay for these guys!!!



Crazy how one team can look pretty good against the reigning champions. Now They just can’t stop the jazz from scoring. Amazing. Too much talent out of action tonight. Start the bus



This game is just awful. Foul trouble has been the biggest issue



Lottery team without haliburton



One of the worst efforts from the Pacers this season. Offensively, defensively, all around. You have to see what you can get for Myles and Buddy.



Imagine getting blown out by the Jazz



Great now all the mormons get free chicken.



Collin Sexton has murder eyes



Not sure why after 8 years people don't understand that Myles is a role player. He's good, he has unique skills, but he is what he is.



lol the Jazz have to have the shortest sideline report of all time. She literally is at Kesslers waist



am i insane, or are there just an insane number of illegal screens from the jazz?



I seen Markenen at 36.5 PRA this morning and I thought they handing out free money. 44 in 3 quarters. We predictable as ****



6 straight possessions ending in Jazz free throws…



Collin sexton offensive foul every time he scores



Myles Turner for the minutes he plays has to be one of the worst rebounding centers in the history of this league.

Starting NBA centers grab 6 rebounds on accident



you guys should be ashamed



Why are all these trash Pacer role players trying to play iso ball? Run some offense through Walker.



At least I get to go to bed. This is a 20+ point loss. None of Math, Buddy, or Nem can run any offense at all. If TJM isn't on the floor it's a disgusting product.

On the brightside at least Rick put the rookies on the floor. I didn't think he had it in him.



sometimes myles seems to foul on purpose when he doesn't feel like playing it seems



The fouls are getting out of hand. The refs need to swallow their whistle a little, literally a foul on pacers every single time Utah has ball





Post-Game



I stopped watching in the 3rd. We got cooked. We have a lot of great players but it takes Hali to unlock them. Nembhard can't do it. We put up a solid fight against Denver. The Jazz straight outplayed us from the tipoff.



Certainly not the most enjoyable Pacers game I’ve ever watched



You cant beat West teams



I watched the Jazz broadcast and they kept talking about ”this" team is the most efficient offense in the NBA. Not when we're missing 3 starters...



GET MARKKANEN YOU COWARDS!!!​

You already know Ainge wouldn’t mind trading his mom as long as he got ahold of more picks.

And nope don’t care about future picks they are going to use in
more win now players.



Out of all 82 games this game may tell us the least about this Pacer team. Everything was set up perfectly for the Pacers to lose badly, and that's what happened.



Someone in the crowd during a free throw cutaway had a sign about laying bricks for Myles with hand drawn Legos on it... super random but made me laugh.



I’m watching the post game. Rick’s not naming players, but he’s really frustrated with someone. I think it’s Buddy.



I wasn't able to watch tonights game, but this Jazz team is different then the team we played. Not sure what happened there, to be honest i dont even think ive seen one Jazz game besides our matchup earlier in the season but they're 15-4 after tonights win in their last 19 games. They have 8 wins in 2024, no team has more then 6. (Pacers actually have 6).





Quotes from around the league



Another good Lauri Markkanen performance is always another **** You! performance to Jim Boylen.



Seriously and realistically: where would you rank Lauri among NBA players right now? After his incredible year last year I would have argued top 25. Now I’d argue even higher. He’s so good right now.



Sexkanen



The Jazz have won 9/10, beating the Heat, Mavs, Nuggets, Sixers, Bucks, Lakers and Pacers in that stretch, losing only to Boston. They have six guys averaging over 11 per game (Markannen, Clarkson, Sexton, Collins, THT, George) and another three averaging over 8 (Kessler, Olynyk, Fontecchio). Dangerous *** team.



I'm so glad Sexton has found his grove this year. I really liked him in Cleveland but after the trade to Utah he just could never really get it going, but he's looked great this year



Finnish Sex



Lauri could have pushed for 40 if the game was closer. He's so damn good.



Lauri has become such a good player. I think he’s closer to top 15 than he is to 30 right now. Incredible efficiency, taking people off the bounce and in the post, improved passing and defense, rarely makes mistakes. Man.



People where saying Lauri was available for the right package, I’m guessing the right package is LeBron and AD plus picks.



Keyonte was the first pick from the Timberwolves. Good start



The Jazz haven’t lost a home in 38 days, and they haven’t lost to a non-playoff team in 48 days



Getting Lauri and Kessler back may have helped quite a bit lol



The Jazz are a god damn buzzsaw right now and we play them in Utah in 3 days. Would by lying if I said I wasn’t at least a little bit nervous about it. They usually get us good in Utah at least once a year



The **** is going on in Utah man, they cookin!

Damn right we are!
 
The "why don't we trade someone for Markkanen now!?" quotes seem to be piling up.
(I'm guessing Danny starts the phone call with "As long as your offer includes Haliburton, we can have this conversation".)
 
Game started so late, someone needs to blow someone out so I can sleep at the half.
Your wish is our command! Now think about being careful about what you wish for next time!
Did the Utah Department of Transportation design their jerseys?
It’s actually more of a subsidization. KD has to moonlight for the DOT to make his nut for the month, so the collaboration was seamless.
Losing to a team starting Kris Dunn in 2024 would be an incredibly Indiana Pacers thing to do
Better get used to it. Respect it or KD gonna kick you sissy boys butts.
