But, but, but, you see, the Clippers beat the same Pacers team without Leonard, and thus we absolutely should have beaten the Pacers without AD. And since we didn't, the Clippers are better. It's a failed season. |

Yikes. Don’t think a franchise with that kind of petty will win.
Focus on yourself, NOLA. |
Ingram and ball were on fire tonight!!! Good luck NOLA |

I'm proud of how we battled in this game. A few made FTs and we could've pulled on through. I think the team will carry this confidence over to the rest of the season. I am still hoping that a consistent, reliable 3rd scorer will be added to the roster or preferably Kuzma getting his head out of his arse and fulfilling that role. _________________ God is a Lakers fan........usually. |

Our 2 bigs were big but not defensively, I cannot believe they let Indiana's bigs look like All-Stars, couple that with the horrible outside and free throw shooting cost this team the win. |

Did not like the closing line-up tonight... Rondo/Caruso/Pope/Bron/Dwight. That clearly sucks up any driving lane for Lebron. Also need more shooting on the floor.
Caruso/Pope/Green/Lebron/Dwight would have been better. |

And you think he wouldn’t destroy Kuzma? |
Kuzma isn’t a good defender but the difference between Dudley and Kuzma is that Kuzma would let you have 25 but also score 19.. Dudley only had 3 today. |
Thanks, IG |

Part of Indiana’s bigs looking like All-Stars was AD was missing. The best defender. Dwight and McGee are more effective as help defenders/shot blockers.
Also, they would need to guard AD so I doubt someone like Sabonis would have energy to score 25 after having to defend AD on the other end.
Obviously not the main reason they lost. Terrible shooting and embarrassing FTs. |

I didn't watch the match, but from what I see we did a bad match against a fairly good team, we had agains lots of turnovers, we were bad in attack, we missed AD, it was our 4th game in the road and we still could have won? Where is the problem? |

Those missed FTs were killers. I appreciate the guys playing hard especially on the road and without AD, but you can't excuse those missed FTs by LeBron. Dwight, I understand. It's been a common theme his entire career. But LeBron has slowly become unreliable at the FT line and I'm scared what would happen in a close, crucial playoff game. |

Yes, we badly need a 3rd reliable scorer. Kuz will never be that. Unless he gets hot and goes off there is no way he can be a consistent, reliable threat for us. |
