Not really. He did have one huge game. But I'd say he's been underwhelming in about every other game.

I hope a story comes out in the offseason with the reason why Indiana is simply not playing right now.

It honestly feels like they all hate each other and are just playing to get this season over with..and they're the #1 seed in the East.

Unbelievable.

I've never seen anything like it.

How was it when Golden State beat Dallas? I can't recall Dallas looking this terrible. Golden State just played out of their minds.

Down 26 at the half or whatever it was and Hibbert is yucking it up walking to the locker room.

Dallas didn't play great but they weren't horrible. Golden state just played really well and had favorable matchups.

I've never seen a collapse like Indiana this year. Someone porked someone's girl or something. Nothing else can explain it.

Maybe Evan turner is a huge **** and fucked it all up?

Pretty sure they were playing poorly before Turner got there, but obviously something going on behind closed doors. Maybe trying to get Vogel fired?

George has been awful since the all star break, shooting like mid 30's from the field. He has yet to take that leap to superstar.

Apparently PG had thousands of dollars in personal belongings stolen from his home last night during the game.

In regards to blair.I would have cut some slack since dude landed on his legs. I don't even think it was a frustration kick, more of a reflex kick when somebody landed on him

Have you watched the games or even glanced at what hes averaging?

23 pts per game
11 rebounds per game
5 assists per game
3 steals per game
1 block per game

Shootin 47% from the field and 50% from 3. If thats underwhelming, I wonder whats good lol

Yeah the last half of the year, his game fell off and it coincided with his team's struggles.

No sign of forced entry and his home alarm system wasn't set. Either it was an inside job or he just left the house wide open.

Has nothing to do with them failing in the playoffs though. Hes the only one on the team pretty much that brought his A game

Star gets the credit and the blame though unfortunately, that's the way it works. Lebron never got a pass when he put up unreal numbers and his team still lost.

Landed on HIM? nobody landed on him. I thought it clearly looked like he just kicked him. He got caught.

Yeah, if there's a contact = mandatory ejection rule it makes sense, but I thought it was pretty clear that there was no intent there.

I did think it was a frustration kick though. Reacting to the call, just not intentionally targeting splitter.

Thats fair enough. But to say he hasnt been playing well is just not correct, and thats what I was mainly getting at when I posted that hes havin a hell of a playoffs as far as how hes playing.

I mean I don't agree that it's fair lol I know how much of a team game it is and no one player has ever won anything. But stars always get the blame, just comes with the territory. Hell I remember Lebron getting the blame in that Orlando series they lost when he averaged 40, 10 and 9 and hit tons of clutch shots throughout the series.
