Why do people hate Indiana all of a sudden?

[Rik Smits' Hair]

The game threads are full of whining fans from teams not involved in the game. Every loss or bad game we get the overrated talk.
Is it because ESPN started claiming Indiana as a threat to Miami's reign?
Is it because people think that the players get more hype than they deserve?
What is the driving factor in the surge of hatred?

[All Net]

Who hates them?

Lebron stans? yeah why is that a surprise.

OKC are a very likeable team but they had plenty of hate from time to time. Thats part of being a top contender. All of them get hate...apart from maybe Spurs.

[crunk-juice]

people hate good teams, nothing to see here.

[maybeshewill13]

It's because all the Lebron stans and Miami fans here are scared :oldlol:

[gin17]

only lebron stans can have this hate on the pacers. they are a good, respectable team

[Kblaze8855]

The pacers are among the least hated on to teams in recent memory. Most everyone respects the pacers or don't care either way

[Lebron23]

only lebron stans can have this hate on the pacers. they are a good, respectable team


Just like you who keeps on hating on lebron and Miami because at age 29 Lebron officially surpassed 36 yrs.old Dirk Nowitzki and Jason Kidd.

[russwest0]

Their record vs teams over .500 leaves a lot to be desired. They are a good club but getting overrated playing in the East.

You can blame ESPN for pretty much any hate any top team gets. With the Pacers they overrate them and act too much like they are some unstoppable team simply because they dominate trash teams and do above average vs good teams.

If The Pacers were in the West they'd be competing with Portland and the Clippers as the 3rd/4th best team.

He had his chance and failed miserably.

[Lebron23]

LeBron surpassing Dirk?

Dirk is a top 25 player of all time. Dude choked in the first round of the 2007 NBA playoffs and he was outplayed by a 6"2' Baron Davis in that series.

LBj is currently rank higher than 1x NBA MVP and 2x Finals MVP Hakeem and Kobe.

There's a difference between hating a team and thinking they're overrated. But after observing ish behavior for a while, I'd say it's LeBron haters and Indiana fans so that if they take out the heat they can clown LeBron for losing to a less stacked team or start propping up Paul George as a superstar who carried his team to the finals.

I hope it's not heat/LeBron fans saying that cuz they would be doing it all wrong. They gotta prop up Indiana so that if the heat win they can say that LeBron finally beat a more stacked team.

Because you are a dirk stan who keeps on hating on Lebron. And his team was also swept in the first round of the playoffs in 2012. Without Tyson Chandler his team was exposed in the post season.

[russwest0]

actually they're already propping up the pacers so that in the chance that they lose to them, they won't feel too bad. just like this thread http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/showthread.php?t=325090

Let's see in the playoffs if they are capable of dethroning Miami in a best of 7 series. George needs to get his shit together. His numbers are going down in the last few weeks.

The Thunder LOST. Durant LOST. Lebron WON. Deal with that.

[smoovegittar]

Because:

1.) They're prob gonna win it all.
2.) They have no real superstars or HOF coach

in those two series we all know that the heat are heavily favored due to their stackness (okc is young and inexperienced and led by a 23yr old, spurs are old and led by almost 40yr old duncan). people knew before those series even started that chances are, heat will win. yet the heat almost managed to lose in 2012.

the only series thought to be more lopsided than those two before the series even started is the spurs pwning the cavs in 2007.

Durant also played with westbrook and harden who were both top 5 players in their positions.

Heat lose to Pacers in 6.
OKC beats Pacers in 5.

LeBrons stans act like OKC is lucky they didn't see Miami or some shit when they just got done shitting on the team Miami couldn't beat.

Seriously, all OKC fans are hoping for Miami so we can watch pre prime Durant shit on LeBron in his prime.

If Kendrick Perkins doesn't play Miami stands no chance. This isn't 9PPG Ibaka they faced 2 years ago in the Finals. This isn't the same bench. This isn't the same coach. Isn't the same Westbrook and Durant. Miami is significantly worse as well.

Watch LeBron's interview after that OKC game. He seemed very impressed and taken back by Perry Jones who came out of nowhere and got 30 minutes. OKC fans have been knowing he's a good player but secretly hoping we saved him as a secret weapon for the playoffs.

Heat fans can say we are too stacked or whatever they want. If Perkins doesn't see the floor, they have no chance.

23 yrs.old Durant > Dirk in the 2011 NBA playoffs/and finals. 37 yrs.old Duncan was the best center in the playoffs.

Did you just compared the 2012 OKC Thunder, and 2013 spus to the 2007 Cavaliers?? You really need to get your head out of your @$$. That's one of the most stupidest posts that I ever read.

I think it's because:

1.) They're prob gonna win it all.
2.) They prove you can win with "D" and a big - old school style.
3.) They have no "superstars" or HOF coach. So well thought out; I applaud the organization. I really hope they get it done - I'm envious as a Knick fan. :applause:

You are always hating on Lebron.

Dirk was not even efficient in the 2011 NBA Finals. The Chandler and Dallas defense was the no.1 reason why they won over weaker Miami Heat team. They shutdown Lebron, and they losses the series.

Best to worst Heat team since 2010

2012-13 - Miami Heat

[Legends66NBA7]

Well, I can see the "hate" coming from being on a winning teams and unlikable personalities from what I've seen.

-Lance Stephenson ? The choke sign he did to the Heat in 12 and being a pest over the last and this season make him the first target of hatred towards the Pacers. Outside of that, he's a pretty well-rounded basketball player and knows his role. I thought he would be a fringe all-star choice, didn't really get the "guaranteed" spot from the TNT crew.

-David West ? Some say he's "soft" and a fake tough guy who goes after players for no reason. Outside of that, he's brought a lot of good veteran leadership to the Pacers. Didn't get why some thought he was an all-star, he wasn't getting the nod.

-Roy Hibbert ? All big men get hated on, it's just natural to hate goliaths. Didn't help himself with the "no homo" remark. Outside of that, he's the frontrunner (or run away) DPOY candidate. Still needs to rebounds and be more efficient, but I think he plays his role top notch on this team.

-Paul George ? I think he's the most likable, until this whole baby mama drama. Outside of that, he's a solid 2 way player who's in a slump right now. It could be the off court stuff, but I think a lot of players go on slumps, he should be fine.

-George Hill ? Can be a pest on defense, but not really that unlikable.

-Danny Granger ? Solid player when he wasn't so injury prone as he is now, but I remember he's always trying to start something with other players to get under people's skin. I've seen the duels with James and Bosh before. Outside of that, he can be a serviceable 6th man off the bench come playoff time.

-Luis Scola ? Another pest big man, but not really that unlikable.

-Andrew Bynum ? Well, where to start ? Pouting, selfish, and just a huge scum bag overall. I really don't know how he gets to be on this team after all the bullshit be pulls in the last 3 years. Outside of that, in the limited minutes he plays he can give the Pacers some more low post scoring... but only limited minutes and the players need to keep him in check if he fall out of line.


Now, this is not to say that I agree with everything posted, but I can see in the past a lot of what I just typed being brought up. Personally, it's a great for a young team like them that have drafted and traded solid veterans to create such a well-rounded team. I actually don't mind the any form of hype they get, they've been living up to it for the most part.

I would like for the Raptors to play them in the playoffs because I've said before that we match up great with them and it would a great defensive series. Would go the distance.


Just hate the hype there getting when the only real contenders is the east are Miami and brooklyn

Brooklyn hasn't shown it can find any form of consistency yet, nor are they in position to win the division title. Their in position to lose in the first round.

Why did people hate Boise St when they played the garbage schedule they did?

Because they get sucked off by ESPN on the reg but take any of the top 7 teams in the West and replace Indiana with them, and they look amazing too.

You think GSW is 30-20 playing 3 games against Orlando and Boston and Chicago and the Sixers and the Bucks and the Bobcats?

Would Houston?

What about the Pelicans, who sit at 22-27 right now? 9-22 against the west, 13-5 against the east. They would look like all stars too.

I don't hate the pacers, I hate espn for not placing an asterisk by their team record.

Knicks fan, I'm supposed to hate them as well as the Bulls and Heat due to 90's rivalries :rockon:

The only team I would root for the Pacers is against the Heat. Get it done, hicks :cheers:

Dirk is a top 25 player of all time. Dude choked in the first round of the 2007 NBA playoffs and he was outplayed by a 6"2' Baron Davis in that series.

LBj is currently rank higher than 1x NBA MVP and 2x Finals MVP Hakeem and Kobe.

You sound so ****ing retarded.. Dirk had a bad series, so what? Everyone does. It's not like Dirk was guarding Baron Davis, so why does his height matter.

LeBron had the greatest choke of all time in the finals and he was outplayed by a 6'2" Jason Terry in that series.

In a thread about the Pacers, LeBron gets brought up :lol The insecurities are at an all time high

I hate the Pacers because George tries to abort babies.

[Olacinco]

Yep :cheers:

She had the most perfect tits. Perfect size perfect nips, Asss was like a 8/10

[jzek]

David West of coarse :roll: :roll:

[AnaheimLakers24]

Just like you who keeps on hating on lebron and Miami because at age 29 Lebron officially surpassed 36 yrs.old Dirk Nowitzki and Jason Kidd.
prime example of a scared hater fgt

[navy]

You cant really complain about haters unless you are a Heat or Laker fan.

[Milbuck]

Because they're good. And cocky as ****.

[icewill36]

all of the sudden? I've been hating them:roll:

[outbreak]

I called it when people started hyping them. Posters here will love an up and coming player or team but when they develop into a real threat to their side they start hating them.

[NumberSix]

Indiana is legit and PG is a legit top 5 player. Deal with it..

[MavsSuperFan]

only lebron stans hate the pacers. Pacers are the great anti lebron hope

[MavsSuperFan]

cos PG is dating Doc's girl (volleyball player, goes to college, etc.) then gets a hoe pregnant and then offers her 1M to abort the kid

:oldlol:
Paul George :bowdown: :applause: :bowdown: :applause: Da new Gawd

[D-FENS]

I can't root for them unless they're against the Heat. Hibbert and PG are constantly disappearing. They're both fake superstars getting carried by West and Hill

[KyrieTheFuture]

Indiana is legit and PG is a legit top 5 player. Deal with it..
Nah he isn't

[SamuraiSWISH]

They give me a young, thung, punk softer version of Riley's Knicks type of feel. For me, that makes me dislike them. And growing up in Chicago, as a Bulls fan, I absolutely despised that city and that team.

[reppy]

I have no problem with the Pacers. Small market team that rebuilt after the Artest/O'Neal/Tinsley years.

Behind my team, they're on the short list of other teams I would be ecstatic to see win it all.

Yup. Part of the reason I cringe when my Blazers start getting love. Then you get dumbass fans, for and against, that manage to suck some of the joy out of it.

I don't mind dissing or talking a little trash. But if you lose, take your licks, give props, and move on. So much stupid shit on this forum because people have permanent sand lodged in their ass.

[MellowYellow]

PG is top 10 at best. Most overrated player in history, he is still a tier below Melo and a couple tier below Bran and Durant.
