"They were trying to be tough guys. That's not their identity... Nobody's gonna fight in the NBA. Take the foul, keep it moving. You're not a tough guy, just keep it moving."
Donte DiVincenzo on his altercation with Myles Turner:
So a did some digging.
Turns out… the referee who called those 2 bogus fouls (James Williams) went too high school and college in Indiana. The Pacers are a whopping 35-3 when he refs their games. This has to be investigated.
U guys ready for the Brunson > Hali agenda to be falsely pushed tonight when someone tweets screenshots of both their box scores completely ignoring the fact Hali only played 20 minutes?
The “frontrunner”, “only talk when you’re winning” shit is so exhausting, and I hate Bobby Portis even more for making it a thing.
Who in the world is going to talk shit when they are getting spanked??
I see frontrunner and think braindead.
@goz421
Jokes on you - we get bent over every game. Also not supporting shit, but I am very anti false info, like this ref was biased and wanted the Pacers to win 😂
Couple of notes:
- Nembhard is that dude again.
- Pascal looks so comfortable already.
- Nesmith could be the difference maker this year.
- Myles tough game, but still the first one off the bench to celebrate with Aaron after the final stop.
In the last 5 games the Pacers have a DEF RTG of 115.2 which is 13th in the league during that span. Granted there have been some lower tier offenses in that stretch, the numbers on that end are trending in the right direction.
@goz421
Can you read? I said nothing about agreeing or disagreeing with call. But I am disagreeing with the agenda pushing that this ref is biased towards the Pacers. The stat that was posted in the tweet was wrong.
Essentially the Pacers this year flipped
Bruce Brown
Jordan Nwora
Buddy Heild
3 1st round picks
For
Pascal Siakam
Doug McDermott
Furkan Korkmaz
2 2nd round picks
Thoughts?
So here’s the jist of the last 2 minutes
Foul (overturned) on Tyrese - would’ve been a fast break
Kicked ball (wasn’t) resulting in Donte 3 - would’ve been a fast break
Pacers ball (overturned) because the Knicks won their earlier BS challenge
Just wanted to let Knicks and Bucks fans know that it’s okay to have an original thought just one time.
So many copy and paste “frontrunner” & “if we weren’t injured” ass tweets.
I thought it was Knicks in 4? I thought we were frauds? I thought Hali wasn’t cut out? Which is it?
@CursedKnicks
I’m not gonna go fish for pics of Brunson, Divo, and Josh Hart, because I have better things to do but this is literally every player in the NBA.
Thank you for proving my point and being brain dead. Moron.
If it makes anyone feel any better I just bought tickets for the game on Sunday.
My last 4 in attendance games:
Boston IST W
Sixers in Jan - 134-122 W
Mavs - 133-111 W
Heat - 117-115 W
My block and report buttons going crazy tonight. Thank you to some of the Bucks fans for showing your true colors 🫡
To the Bucks fans staying classy, I also *truly* appreciate u all.
Pascal Siakam is excited about the deal to the Pacers and expected to be eager to work out a new contract with the franchise this summer, sources tell ESPN. Siakam can be a free agent in July.
Honestly the best part about the Pacers being on TNT tonight is Shaq, Kenny, Ernie, and Chuck. There isn’t another sports broadcast even close to being on that level

It’s “very likely” Bruce Brown will be traded from the Raptors this week, per

The Knicks and Lakers continue to be mentioned as top contenders to acquire Brown.
No matter what happens today I’m proud of this team and the future is definitely bright.
but with that being said…
Let’s go beat the shit out of the Knicks.
The Pelicans are open to moving Herb Jones, per
@HPbasketball
“The Pelicans are thought to be open to moving Herbert Jones. They're high on Jones, but it'll be difficult for the team to pay their stars, Jones and Trey Murphy III.”

The Washington Wizards are not demanding two first-round picks for Kyle Kuzma, and the asking price may be lower, per
@TheAthletic
“League sources maintain Washington has been holding out for two first-round picks for Kuzma, though team sources indicate that is somewhat
It’s important not to panic or overreact to these last 2 games or the next 3 for that matter. Ty is still getting healthy and P is gonna have to get comfortable in the system. Playing great teams is a great way to get accustomed quickly - but don’t expect the results to be there.
I really don’t want to trade Buddy because of the spacing and action he helps produce for guys like Ty and Pascal. Nobody else on this roster can do that & I don’t think there’s anyone available who can give you something more valuable.
Y’all, the Pascal usage will go up. I am willing to bet the team hasn’t had more than a shoot around together since the trade. No plays, no actions, just pickup. It will get better. Growing pains are expected. Relax.
Forward James Johnson is signing a second consecutive 10-day contract with the Indiana Pacers, Mark Bartelstein of

I despise all the hate he’s gotten over the past year but this move makes sense with his expiring contract.
Thank you for everything Buddy!

If you are still wondering what to get your mom for Mother’s Day I guarantee she wants to go to Gainbridge Fieldhouse to watch the Pacers beat the Knicks. Just sayin.
