Comments from the Other Side - Pacers 3/11/18

The Celtics fought hard, but just had too much going against them.  Brown and Horford out all game, Kyrie out for the second half.  Smart tearing a ligament in his thumb.  Theis tearing his meniscus.  Just too much disruption for one game.  And, even with all that they came to within a basket of winning.  I really hope that Danny pays Smart to keep him.  Every fanbase hate hates him,  but in the end every one wants him on their team.  Enjoy today's comments, in spite of the loss.  My favorites are in bold.  What are yours?


I hate these uniforms.

The Celtics are overrated! Go Pacers! You got this!

Why Don't those uniforms have an expiration date? Is this the third, or fourth year? They were novel, and supposedly temporary when they debuted. Hell, they've lasted longer than some really good Pacer unis.

This would be a huge win, biggest game of the year. Can't wait to see how the guys step up.

Going to be tough but without Jaylen Brown it could be another win for the Pacers

How come this team isn't on national TV? You have the sun's, mavs, bulls,hawks on ESPN few weeks but never pacers. Tv stations must be racist

This will be a fun game. Collison will be a big help with his quickness and shooting and make life easier for Victor. Can the Pacers win? Yes. But it will not be easy

I think there is a good chance. Jaylen Brown is unlikely to play so that just makes it even more likely.

Pacers catch a break here. Celtics without All-Star Al Horford tonight, in addition to Jaylen Brown

They won in Boston not too long ago. Why not again ??

Pacers need to put the ball on our frontcourt a lot...no one can stop Myles

Yes. Baynes is the only guy that can match up with Myles inside. When Baynes is out we should really go to Myles down low.

Even outside, Baynes can't stop the 3pt shot from Myles

I hate when they call carrying in the nba because they could call it every possession.

Both teams should be rested, with Pacers playing on Friday and Boston on Thursday. No Jaylen Brown for the Celtics, and Gordon Hayward continuing to watch the game from the premium seats. Every game is precious at this point for the Pacers if they want to have home court in the first round, so we’ll see how prepared they are tonight.

Smart's two best shooting games of the season are against Indiana That’s gotta come down, right? Rozier finally came down after having his best shooting game of the season against the Pacers.

A win in Boston will have me in the rare position at 9 o'clock cheering for the hated Lakers.

Brown and Horford out. Hopes this goes better than the Lakers game when they were missing starters.

This is just like a playoff game at this point.

Letting guys play a little physical tonight.

They could be a dominant team if Turner can play good on a regular basis. Sometimes he looks like Anthony Davis and other times he looks like Roy Hibbert

Marcus smarts only hits 3s when its against pacers

Boston sucks at rebounding.

They're shoving on every play under the basket

Yea Booker just hacked Monroe so I guess we're even...

this is gonna be a rough one ...someone man up and beat their defense setting up please

Holy crap the Pacers suck at throwing the ball inside

Is Booker usually this offensively competent?

Help. According to the boxscore, Indy shot 4-7 from 3 for 57.1% while Bos shot 4-7 for 66% How?

Science

the house always gets an edge?

That may be the one sure thing in this world.

Lot of in and outs right now

Yes, Boston gets the ins while Indy gets the outs.

Sabonis has been struggling mightily lately. I've noticed something. HE HAS NO RIGHT HAND. He can't make a shot on the right side. Unbelievable for someone with his background. Defense is just forcing him back to his right and he refuses to shoot a right hand layup.

Myles has blocked Baynes twice in the post straight up.

Playing lazy right now.

Yep game over

Smart floppin'

Too many turnovers. I don't think Smart stays shooting 75% from deep though.

Marcus Smart biggest flopper in the NBA

Gotta figure out a way on how to stop Marcus Smart for being hit so hard..poor kid always end up in the floor every time he got bump and get a call

Why does it take 11 unanswered points by Boston before McMillan calls a timeout? Is he that slow?

Why do fouls look different for the Pacers than for the Celtics?

Victor would be good at laying brick.

Always hate smart...when he is on..bad things happen to pacers

How many times do the announcers have to tell us Boston plays good defence ?

We're losing due to Marcus Smart. He has single-handedly caused half of our turnovers. He drew two charges on Thad, a moving screen on Booker and picked off a bad entry post pass by Bojan. He is also 3/4 from 3-point range and has 5 assists.

And he’s a 36% career shooter.

Love it! So many illegal screens and push offs. Definitely can't rely on the refs for this game. Gonna have to play better.

Now Irving in locker room but Brad Stevens still on bench.

We caught a very nice break here when Smart fell down and was unable to control the ball after he stole it. That was a big swing. 5 point game.

Or when al and jaylen dnp plus kyrie is out

wow Kyrie is out too?

it’s a wrap now boys. Too many dudes out

Kyrie is starting to break down again

Collison is trying to keep the Celtics in it

Don’t miss this opportunity Kyrie is out for 2nd half for knee soreness, no Horford, no Brown.

If Smart made that shot, I would have agreed with the rest of the world that he’s the greatest ever.

SMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!

Stop throwing the ball to the people with the green jerseys.

Looks like Irving may be out the rest of the game.

Rozier no bargain.

This would be a huge win. We have to hang on to this one. Can't afford to lose to good teams without half their best players.

Is Boston giving up?

Theiss got Domas in the eye.

Not fouling on what are going to be sure layups even with the foul might be a good idea.

No, you have to lay them out.

We have to make sure we don't give them easy and-ones, whenever we foul them on the break it is just a slight brush. Make sure they can't get it up if you do decide to foul.

I feel like both Lance and Sabonis got fouled under the Pacers basket at the same time and still no call, then two ticky tack fouls called in a row on the other end.

Smart fouled Oladipo first

That is the kind of ref help the road team normally doesn't get.

Wow. That was a call.

Just so you guys know, Tommy Heinsohn disagrees with the Theiss foul.

Keep Focus Don’t let smart be the man tonight

Tatum's a tough matchup for Bojan, but would still like to see us run a few plays specifically to get him an open look.

Why are the Pacers trying to lose? Passing like a bad high school freshman team.

Boston continuing to shove under the basket

Can't buy a foul.

OK, got one there.

Heinsohn just called it all ball. I may need new glasses.

F***ing Marcus Smart.

Marcus Smart, the 29% 3 point shooter, has six of them tonight. Wow.

Why does Al Jefferson not play anymore?

5 vs 8

3 pt from smart here probably

Good shot contest by Myles. Altered that shot enough for Rozier to miss.

My god this f***ing Celtics team won't ever give up It’s quite annoying.

Quadruple team smart. That’s the only way we have a chance.

Boston's PA guy sounds really weird, robotic almost.

I’m waiting still for Heinsohn to disagree with that foul on Dipo.

DON'T CALL THE FLOP!!!!!

Homer....callllll

This is why NBA has integrity issues

There was literally no contact there.

LOL what garbage

Dipo was just gesturing to the bench and Morris didn't give him any space

At least they don't get free throws, come on guys, no foul and no basket!

**** the Celtics and **** Marcus Morris. What a joke, got back in the game by whining for superstar calls and getting them. Well, that, and Smart banking in that three. And Bojan choking at the end of the game again.

Even beat them playing 8 on 5.

Punk Morris just pulled Thad down. No call there of course.

The Celtics sure are a whiny, floppy bunch.

Haha the stupid old announcer for the Celtics broadcast literally said the Celtics were fouled on their last 4 possessions. What an *******

Every foul call was correct minus the Morris flop. But nice little win for Indiana even without or 3 best players. Gotta take the w’s regardless of players on the court.

That ref is gonna be embarrassed and thankful the Celtics missed that shot when he sees the replay.

The Celtics are an entire team of punk-ass bitches.

Some people on the Celtics site are actually complaining that there was no foul called on the shot. Apparently they are oblivious to the fact that the Celtics never should’ve had that opportunity to begin with.

Most fan bases are nothing but homers……. But theirs and the Lakers take it to another level.

Damn officials trying to save Boston

The flop to get a time out they didn’t have was BS!

The refs can only do so much for you Celtics lol

I kid about smart, but he was really scaring me haha

3 Starters Out and only win by 2    trash

And if possible the Pacers need to take Smart off the C's hands next year
