Weren’t Lebron and Luka both fairly late scratches? My guess is Indy heard about that and came out playing way too relaxed.

I can't decide what's worse, giving up 44 points in a quarter to a team missing it's two best players, or 4 of the 5 Indy starters still being scoreless midway through the 2nd quarter :lol

All the reports were saying Luka would play by Saturday and Lebron is coming off his best stretch of the season. ESPN even flexed this game into the primetime schedule.

Last I heard Luka is making his debut on Monday against Utah.

1) The Lakers are better without Lebron. Look how locked tight their defense is.
2) They are STACKED. I said at the beginning of the season that on paper they should be favorites to win the West, and the Bronie fluffers just melted down and tried to say it was Lebron and a bunch of trash.
Turns out Full Court was right. Again. :confusedshrug:

I was surprised to see are Pacers are 29-21. I remember they started the season slumping and had no idea theyd climbed back up that high.

He wont win it because the statistical jump isnt that dramatic, but Reaves is really having an "MIP" type season. Hes becoming pretty consistent in performing as the player he would flash at times the last couple years.

Pacers coming back. Aside from Reaves they have no playmakers or firepower.

He's basically American Manu Ginobili.

Didnt seem to matter much the last 4 games, best 4-game stretch of their season without AD.
Peculiar.
Very, peculiar.

Two trash teams in the Wizards and the Warriors, and the Knicks without Anunoby. The only good win in there was against the Clippers. The Lakers are just that stacked though, that they're even blowing teams out without AD.

So basically they beat the Clippers, Knicks and Warriors, and youre left squirming.
"No AD hurts them" We can see bro :lol

He's not even in the league right now if LeBron didn't take him under his wing. Be playing with Louie over in Vietnam.

Oh I agree Lebron deserves most of if not all the credit for Reaves improvement.
