If the Pacers lose tonight, how will this team be remembered?

[triplehate]

Remember? For what

 

[Newzz]

Just remember that in 2014 unless you're a spurs, thunder, or heat fan your team went fishin before this tragic team we're speaking of. Remember that first before anything else.

Aint no such thing as moral victories in sports



You play to win the game



If you dont win the Championship, you just played longer to finish the season as a loser as well



Aint no prizes for finishing in 4th place

they won't lose tonight and if they somehow lost game 6 i don't think it changes much.

Their legacy would be a team that came around at the wrong place at the wrong time. Smack in the middle of Lebron's prime. Nothing wrong with losing to the greatest. They also benefitted from D Gawd being hurt otherwise the bulls would've handled them in the playoffs like the cheat do.

naw, those teams were way better

pacers lack leadership

The lack of leadership has been apparent during this meltdown we've had. Far too often we just appear lost, especially on the offensive end. No mental toughness whatsoever. Im still hopeful that we can at least play well enough on our home-court to extend the series but its hard to have much confidence in this team.

A team full of flea ass dikkheads.

The Pacers fault is all on Hibbert

When he plays good, they win.

When he plays bad, they lose.

All on him.

Well in that case then the Heat are benefiting from Bynum being hurt. If Bynum could play Hibbert wouldn't be starting and it would be a totally different series. A lot of people on here would prob pick us over Miami if Bynum was starting. And Bynum against the Bulls would be a prob you know that.

They won't be remembered. That's the simple answer.

If the Pacers lose tonight I'm sure they'll have a million and one excuses as to why. Lets all ignore these sambos were an Al Horford injury away from going home round 1

not really more fraudulant than the Knicks who couldn't get past jordan. They were built to bully him in the paint, tried to jordan rule him but they never got past the hump. Sometimes you're just not as good as your competition; this is one of them.

i was thinking this too. you know that big brother beating little brother type thing. but then again. i wonder if its just coaching. remember carlisle and the pistons. couldnt win. changed to larry brown, added sheed and championship. same with dungy and the bucs. gruden came in AND CHAMPIONSHIP. do you think changing coaches would work with this squad?

Paul George thinks even if they lose they will be remembered for winning don't ask me how

If it wasnt for Drose breaking down, this team would have never even been mentioned

Unless you're a Spurs or Pacers fan your team wasn't a number 1 seed, lets remember that first before anything else..

Ive never been a big fan of vogel, i always thought we shouldve hired brian shaw instead. I dont know if this can really be his fault, it was something much bigger than coaching that caused the incredible collapse in the second half of the season. The fact that he was able to get these mental midgets from folding in the first two rounds to even get to the comference finals the way we were performing has to count for something.
