Can Pacers still win the series?

[SteveKerrsJunk]

These guys are playing like absolute horseshit right now. Paul George with 0 first half points and Hibbert with 0 first half boards today. Thats as pathetic as it gets. Old man Scola and some lucky 3s barely kept them hanging for a minute in the 2nd.

If these guys are even $ to win series are you betting them?

[Seto]

They can but I don't think they will.

Taking Hawks in game 4 most likely.

[SteveKerrsJunk]

Yeah. After tonight I tend to agree with you. What happened to the Pacers? Was the Granger trade that big of a loss?

[MoneylineExpress]

If they played like they did pre all star break, then yes. But that seems unlikely. They have been playing shitty for the last 2 months and rumors are they have off court issues. Can't bet on them to all of a sudden turn on the switch.

[Art Vandelay]

Bye bye Vogel... Horrible finish to the year.

[SteveKerrsJunk]

I am going to have a hard time not taking Pacers ML as bad as they've sucked. They are still the better team. But those off court issues are worrisome.

[Sport_Fish]

Nothing to indicate Pacers are winning this series.

But this is the NBA, things can suddenly change and Pacers could end up playing like how they should and take this.

[tony_come]

Yes they can

[farmhouse1]

Hell no. How in he world do the pacers look like the better team?? Hibbert seriously has no confidence while the hawks have all the confidence in the world.

They are the better team. Definitely not looking like it right now. Hawks controlled the game and tempo from the start. Paul George better step up his game.

they are the better team overall, i agree. But they arent the better team right know and thats what matters.

[jjgold]

I think there is distention in the locker room and once thats sets in its over

[NardVa]

I think the Pacers lose game 4 and win game 5 and 6. Not sure who gets game 7.

[KRIT]

Haha Pacers are dead, have been for the past couple months. ATL will beat them in 5 or 6.

[Big Bear]

yes they can.

They are only down 2 games to 1 and the Pacers have home court advantage.

[farmhouse1]

Nope. This team quit on each other and look like they just want the season over with. They've given the hawks all the confidence in the world and they know they can beat the pacers now...

[easyliving]

Hawks are +120 for the series with a 2-1 lead. This reminds me of the GS-Denver series last year Warriors were up 2-1 and I was still able to get them at plus money. Likely a similar situation.

[GoBlue77]

we all keep thinking pacers can win but like someone said, they've been outplayed every quarter in the series but maybe 2. hawks can do this for sure

[MiDNiTe]

atlanta hit some big shots when pacers were coming back, are they going to keep hitting them like teagues crazy 3? I dunno but there are other better games to bet on

[UntilTheNDofTimE]

What are the off court issues? Hibbert looks like he's on strike out there. What's going on. No matter what's happening off court how is winning not a priority on court?

I think Evan and Lance had some words and an exchange recently at practice. These guys are playing poor ball and don't seem to have each others backs out there.

[UntilTheNDofTimE]

There has been a few 1 seeds to lose...

more recently

Bulls vs 76ers with Rose injury
spurs vs Memphis with Ginobli injury but no excuse
mavs vs GS worst ever


But this just seems worse. It's been a total Implosion. I don't tend to act like I'm a good sports bettor but when it comes to picking the finals matchup I've been spot on 7 of last 10 years. This year the Pacers were my preseason pick to win it all vs the Spurs. It's amazing how they've completely fell apart.

[AchillesTG]

I think they came out too hard and too fast, trying to get Home Court advantage and burned themselves out. They have no ball movement and not putting out enough effort on Defense. Vogel should have reigned it in a little earlier in the season.

This is is what everyone says but this is a young team. It's one thing for the Heat or spurs to burn themselves out but this really shouldn't be a huge issue for the Pacers. When I watch how stagnant and lackluster their offense is I can't think anything but Space Jam. That's pathetic.

They still can win this series with a game 4 victory first. ATL shoots the 3 ball hell of a lot. Live by the 3 die by the 3. Maybe ATL long balls will start falling short.... Hibbert is the main reason they are not winning. He needs to get going. They need to give him some good easy plays or something.

[RubberKettle]

They can still win in 7 being down 25 points @ the half, this is the NBA where amazing happens

No thanks, I've posting for 5-6 weeks about the Indiana Fakers and what pretenders they are. BOL in your wagers.

Then take them and throw away your money and stop asking the rest of what we think when clearly you don't listen. That team SUCKS!!! Have a nice night and take your cash

[farmhouse1]

Hibbert looks like he's destined to fail this team...

Even if he wants out, who would take him playing like he has been??? What a joke he has become....terrible!!!! You are correct bro.

[pavyracer]

yes they can.

They are only down 2 games to 1 and the Pacers have home court advantage.

How do they have home court advantage?

[easyliving]

yes they can.

They are only down 2 games to 1 and the Pacers have home court advantage.

BB spot on as usual

[Killer_Demo]

Paul George gonna tear it up

[homie1975]

of course they can if they win game 4 it's 2-2 and they have the home court advantage back

[homie1975]

BB spot on as usual

right now the Hawks have home court. they are up 2-1 and there are potentially 2 games left in Atlanta.

the Pacers do not have home court because they HAVE to win in at least once in Atlanta now in order to win the series.
