What in God's name is wrong with the Indiana Pacers?

I know good teams go through some lulls. That's a given.

But they're down 47-15 at home to the freaking Hawks right now. Something is up.

I thought they'd be the only wall between Miami and the Finals.

Now, I'm glad the Knicks lost and the Hawks are winning, because that gives my Magic a second lottery pick. But I'm still baffled at the Pacers.

Paul George's crowning by the MSB was a bit premature it seems.

Maybe so, but he's not the catalyst of what's up with this sinking ship. I mean, they look BAD.

don't sleep on a healthy (sans Horford) Hawks squad, sons.

srsly, the Hawks are generally competitive when most of the team is there, but this is ridiculous.

Any chance of Al coming back for the playoffs? I can't believe that the East is so fricking shitty that the Hawks can't even tank

Apparently they really underestimated Granger's role in the locker room. I still wouldn't be surprised if they take Miami to 7 again, but losing home court is going to be the death of them again.

He's shooting 39.9% since the all star break. He shot 37% over 18 games in March 29.7% from 3.

UF, my fellow Magic fan, with the Dwight Howard trade, somehow Rob Hennigan managed to get an unprotected pick from either New York or Denver. We get the worse of their two picks.

Well, it just so happens that neither of them look playoff bound this year, hence we will have a second lottery pick. Probably pick 12. We're pulling for the Hawks because they're the team holding NY out of the playoffs.

i either need the pacers to get the 1 seed with the hawks as the 8 or have the hawks miss the playoffs. pretty sure none of that is gonna happen though.

hawks are beating the pacers if they are the 1 seed

nah, he said since he tore the right pec this time and he's right handed, it'd take more for him to rehab and feel comfortable playing the game.
