11/1: Pacers@Celtics

[bigq]

I think the Celtics might be pretty good.

 

[Mooch]

This starting 5 is just terrifying.

 

[The Mort Report]

Svi coming in early

 

[luckiestman]

30/12/4 in 3 quarters is pretty good

[Mooch]

30/12/4 in 3 quarters is pretty good

In just 27 minutes.

 

[OnWisc]

Definitely some flashes. Now if they could just find a way to put it all together…

 

[Average Game James]

Emptying the bench with 2 minutes left... in the 3rd quarter. Unreal.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Svi lovers getting some shine!

 

[Mooch]

I think Svi may end up being a decent contributor.

 

[The Mort Report]

Svi lovers getting some shine!

I'm irrationally one of them, can't even tell you why and I love it

 

[tims4wins]

Fucking stupid load management

 

[PedroKsBambino]

Carlisle wondering about that extension right about now...

 

[dhellers]

The wizards are JV, but Pacers are not a fake team. And yet today's lead is bigger. Home Court adding a few points?

 

[reggiecleveland]

Emptying the bench with 2 minutes left... in the 3rd quarter. Unreal.

Crazy. Biggest problem is playing starters enough to get their numbers.

 

[TrapperAB]

Only 13 assists on 33 buckets. Can’t watch - just one-on-one roasting crappy defenders?

lot of transition buckets and yes some one-on-one

 

[tims4wins]

Who knows how this will all play out, but I think they’re going to have more 15+ point wins than the 2008 team.

 

[TrapperAB]

Can we get 3rd quarter Gino time?

 

[Devizier]

I just took Pacers +31.5 on the assumption that our garbage squad will completely shit themselves in the fourth again.

Not looking good for you… unfortunately?

 

[luckiestman]

Some really bad players are going to get a lot of minutes this year

 

[PedroKsBambino]

Meanwhile ,the Bucks are losing by 25 to the Raptors.

Some stuff still to be figured out in Milwaukee...

 

[OnWisc]

Third quarter is a little early for Payton Pritchard and the Heathcliff Slocumb Dancers.

 

[Light-Tower-Power]

Don’t have to worry about minutes when the starters only play three quarters a night.

 

[Imbricus]

Ah, it turns into the proverbial laugher ...

 

[TrapperAB]

Did I see that right? Indy at 3/29 from three?

 

[Average Game James]

Hey, it's only money, right?

 

[Devizier]

No Halliburton is a big part of it

 

[PedroKsBambino]

No Kornet and early Svi?

The game threads feel heard

 

[bgo544]

I'm just glad to have Porzingis' legs safely on the bench far away from Aaron Nesmith

 

[Mooch]

So far tonight:

Lillard: -26
Jrue: +20

 

[Ale Xander]

Heathcliff Slocumb Dancers.

More details please

 

[Manzivino]

Don’t have to worry about minutes when the starters only play three quarters a night.

CJM and Brad getting ahead of the”you can’t rest guys” rules by resting guys in game.

 

[SteveF]

Wolves up by 19 over the Nuggets at the half. Nuggets are playing their guys, so...

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Who knows how this will all play out, but I think they’re going to have more 15+ point wins than the 2008 team.

For all the talk about the depth we’ve lost with the moves we’ve made, the new starting five has raised the floor so much. Our “deeper” roster of last season could basically never flush teams down the toilet like this.

The exciting thing is POBOBS does still have a bit of powder to add on before season’s end. Even that ‘08 team needed PJ Brown and Cassell to help save the day at various moments.

 

[Ale Xander]

No Halliburton is a big part of it

So you're saying the Pacers lack energy?

 

[HowBoutDemSox]

Bench looking a little sharper so far

 

[128]

So, maybe Hauser can still shoot?

 

[dhellers]

No Halliburton is a big part of it

True but.... 12 to 18 point difference?

JB may be #5 but he's so much better than Perk

 

[The Mort Report]

Hauser lit

 

[tims4wins]

They’re gonna clinch the 1 seed by February break

 

[Average Game James]

11 NBA teams are averaging less than 108 points per game. Celtics have score 108 in 3 quarters in back-to-back games.

 

[Imbricus]

Meanwhile ,the Bucks are losing by 25 to the Raptors.

I'll say it again: Bucks the team most likely to surprise on the downside this year.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Kornet

Wolves up by 19 over the Nuggets at the half. Nuggets are playing their guys, so...

I know you've looked at the lead change data as well as the overall average leads in the NBA. Phoenix led SA by something like 20 in the third before losing. The NBA, where virtually no leads are safe.

The C's wont lose this game.

 

[reggiecleveland]

Pritchard going to work

 

[Manzivino]

Shooting taking a sharp turn toward the mean

 

[bigq]

So, maybe Hauser can still shoot?

PP also.

 

[Light-Tower-Power]

Not looking good for you… unfortunately?

Hey, it's only money, right?

I’d like to think my donation is what unfucked Hauser and Pritchard.

 

[Joe D Reid]

The other team is being paid tens of millions of dollars specifically to prevent this from happening.

 

[Lazy vs Crazy]

Did I see that right? Indy at 3/29 from three?

4-34

It's absurd.
