Umm they're 7-11 in their last 18 games, 8 of those losses by double digits including a 22-point beatdown by the Bobcats, 26-point loss to the Rockets, loss to the Knicks, 13-point loss to the Wizards, 14-point loss to the Cavs, 26-point annihilation against the Spurs, now down 30 at home to the Hawks... the Atlanta Hawks who've been in a freefall for 2 months, the Hawks who are 8-21 in their last 29 games. Losing is one thing but a lot of these games haven't even been competitive. They have locker room issues and they have the 2nd worst offense in the entire NBA since the beginning of February ahead of only the 76ers so yes, I'd say Indy is falling off.

Nothing else needs to be said about the Pacers :lol this covers it pretty much

You google those stats.? Really? Wow
 
@JD617, they only have 24 losses, and before that losing streak of 7-11, they were like 26/30 or something crazy, they season is long, the trade deadline has disrupted them a bit, and the playoffs are coming, Bird knows what he's doing, but you calling this the worst slide of a team ever is a little funny to me, I know/hope you were joking though
 
Spurs are the only team that can beat the Heat in 7. Thunder is the only team that can beat the Spurs in 7. This means 3peat for the Heat. Heat in 7 against Thunder will be this years finals.
 
Thunder will have home court advantage and that will help @AmericanGenius. You never been in Chesapeake Arena, those fans don't play, it's hard to win there.
 
I can't wait until the offseason to find out what went wrong with the Pacers. There's something they're not talking about to everyone.

I agree with this, there is something not being told to the public. Having George Hill has the point guard has something to do with it as well, if we listen to what Roy Hibbert said about "ballhogs"

- Also, waiting to the offseason to hear the real reason Bron was in and out of the 11's, there is something not being told. When they preview the 12's hopefully something will leak out that they improved on with the 12's. Instead of these corporate lines for answers. Never seen the main pitchman not endorse his product and opt for the cheaper model

The NBA community needs to send Woj to Indiana to get to the bottom of why the Pacers have been so bad the past two months.

Like I understand poor play, but the last two months have been just perplexing. Something has to be up.
 
Wouldn't surprise me to see Charlotte take down Indy either honestly. Charlotte is an awesome defensive team, and they have a great player in Al Jeff to go. That, plus the fact that the pacers have been awful, and even when they were good were not that good offensively, is why I wouldn't be surprised to see it happen.
 
Granger's presence is missed.
Roy probably feels disrespected and not involved enough.
Lance is probably focused on getting his big contract next season.
George is distracted by his off the court issues and then the pressure of being "the man" for Indiana.
West is probably honest and tells people what's up.. and he's just too real for the rest of the team :lol
George Hill quietly sits in the corner and hopes no one notices he's there.
Vogel, despite having success and being a solid coach, is still young and might not be able to reign in his team when they're struggling.

All of that could be a factor... or it could all be BS and there's something else up :lol But this isn't just a team struggling late in the season after a great start, it's crazy how bad they've looked.
 
dont forget Kemba ;)

i wanted Indy to win the east and expected them to but as much as i love em, they have been pure trash and have lost all confidence i had in them. Even if they beat the Bobcats, i dont see em making it outta the 2nd round period.
 
The rise to stardom probably got to their heads. Hibbert being talked about as the DPOTY, George being a MVP, Stephenson being an All-Star. Like just yesterday, I saw Vogel in a Dove commercial. :lol :eek
