Can't use the missing rotation players as an excuse here. Raptors are missing more rotation players than the Pacers are, including their best player, Scottie Barnes plus Quickly (Starting PG), Kelly Olynyk, Bruce Brown, Jakobe Walter, Fernando. Something is very strange with Tyrese Haliburton. The Raptors who did play are full of energy and enthusiasm. That's the difference in these two teams last night.
Maybe the Pacers should let Mathurin and Pascal Siakam just run the offense on the road. Haliburton forgets how to shoot the ball on the road. Meaning whenever the Pacers are shorthanded on the road they have no chance when Haliburton plays this poorly. I was also disappointed in Walker's performance. He was making mistake after mistake leading to Raptors runs. I understand he's young. I was just hoping he could play well when the Pacers are so short handed.
As a further comment, you do a wonderful job Tony with this channel! I really love both the Pacers and the Raptors and cheering for both squads this year!
You know it's bad when pur backups need backups 😢 I feel like a witch who is a knicks fan put a curse on our team so we can see how it feels to have half your team injured.
You are aware the Raptor have major injuries since the season started and the Raptors were also down 5 rotation players. Many of their losses have been close game and can be argued their record would be better if it weren't for all the injuries.
They love to make excuses so they can protect thier horrible takes. The Raptors were missing thier best player. We were only missing role players. Poor us.
@@LockedOnPacerswhat I wanna know is why dont you talk more about the horrific play of Haliburton. Thats the real story here. He looks like he got his money and mailed it in. Why arent we talking about the front offices horrible offseason where they basically ignored the teams weaknesses? I dont get it.
@@LockedOnPacersi dont feel like just mentioning he isnt playing well is what Im getting at. Im talking about calling a spade a spade and placing the blame where it belongs, which is on his shoulders. If he wants to be the franchise player and make 50m a year he cant play this bad and have people talk more about injuries to JAG role players.
The pacers paid an untested Haliburton a max contract but a player who grew into stardom in George wasn't paid nor did a move to acquire A.Davis. Haliburton is acting his age. If he plays this way the Pacer management should get a veteran to guide this team. The talent is there however Haliburton's decision making needs guidance. Siakam is a good player but I feel he is not the type of player to shout during the games and lead the team. Good example of a player which the Pacers acquired before was M.Jackson. He was just steady no flashy moves but very stable in decision making. Haliburton plays the PG position in where it's the hardest role as you guide your team's offense etc. I feel moving Haliburton in the SG position and starting TJ at the 1 might be resolve's Haliburton's decision making and change how he sees the game. Maybe the Pacer management should rethink in getting Frank Vogel back... Decent pick-up for Moses Brown.
Pascal is a point forward, but NOT when he is playing with Haliburton. When Hali is having the game he had last night, why not give Pascal more responsiblity. It won't happen under Carlisle. It was a sad game for the Pacers.
@@frietzscheif our "below avg" center is avg 17 pts 12 RB 2.5 ast on 60% shooting, what does that make Myles Turner who avg 17.5 pts 7 RB 1.4 ast on 50% shooting? Way below average I guess huh?
Question. I know our pace hasn't been as fast this year so far. But do you think our overall pace for the last couple seasons is catching up with them, with all these injuries?
Halle Berry Burton is terrible...what the h....happened to him.....he has NO MORE SWAG! His 3 ball looks so bad...he passes the ball likew a hot potatoe...and doesn't drive to the hoop at all ! Other than that he's ok!!! Arguably the WORST CONTRACT in the NBA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lol we just gonna ignore Ben Simmons contract? Haliburton will be fine. He's literally only 24 and has already shown he can be amazing. I wouldn't be surprised if he's actually somewhat hampered by lingering pains/injuries. He hasn't been TOTALLY horrible, he's had a couple amazing games, thus showing he is VERY CAPABLE of doing so... you weak-tempered fans will shit on our best player relentlessly when he's in a slump & lose all faith so easily. It's like you watch one game and forget every single other game he's played. Look at the bigger picture and support our team through the tough times instead of just emotionally fueled negativity. We literally had NO CENTERS last night and this team is still 6-8, just TWO games behind .500 in an 82 GAME SEASON! And I've already seen so many fans trying to say Hali is a total bum, needs traded or cut, finessed us, blah blah blah. I'm sick of it lol it's pathetic and these indy fanbases are all the same. Quick to give up and talk shit. Have a little fuckin faith and patience
Ibou Badji, Chimezie Metu, Robert Covington, Jordan Nwora. They should have signed Badji over Moses.. ✂️ Newton and Johnson. Then added Metu, Covington and Nwora with the available Kendall Brown spot.
They shouldve been pissed off when this team sat on thier hands all offseason and capped themselves out resigning a bunch of role players nobody is gonna want at the salaries theyve given them. They had the worst offseason of any playoff team, easily. Horrible.
The Pacers have been without Wiseman and Jackson for a few weeks now and havent bothered to sign anybody lol Moses Brown has been available. Why wait to sign him? Our front office is clueless.
If our offense isnt clicking they we are Screwed!! Because our best defenders are out i really hope we dont end up like the Hawks ppl have compared us too
Mathurin needs more opportunities to score the ball instead of playing team ball if he was on a different team he would average 30 he can't score till the 4th quarter it's bonkers!!
Poor Haliburton getting all the blame the stardom.. i fear .. is getting to him i hope he turns it around but its not looking great right now. Come on Haliburton get it together man i still root you on.
JJ has to go can't contribute on court was kept for veteran leadership to have team bringing it every night,have had numerous games this year when team mailed it in,and to be enforcer,it's not 1980-90 NBA

Correct, it's not an excuse
Flush the loss, and keep moving foroward.. Gritty grind, required, Pacers are now hunted...

It's been a rough season, thank you Tony

Decent pick-up for Moses Brown.
At least we injured in beginning of the season. Would make hell of a story if pacers can get it together.
Lost to the team who's player you traded for and paid a max contract.
Pascal is a point forward, but NOT when he is playing with Haliburton. When Hali is having the game he had last night, why not give Pascal more responsiblity. It won't happen under Carlisle. It was a sad game for the Pacers.
They ran a bunch of consecutive isolations for Pascal in the 3rd quarter when it was apparent Tyrese forgot how to play basketball..
He has become Tyrese Haliburtons crutch. He just lets Pascal do most of the work now.
@@79glane928 bro he lets anyone but him do the work. The last-second passes to rookies at the end of the shotclock are my fave
@@TekkenGuyi cant argue with that.
Thanks tony
Injuries are NO excuse against a Raptor team that is even worse off on the injury front. The theme of your video is not acceptable.
Even worse? We had no center. Their below avg center put up 30 on us…
@@frietzscheif our "below avg" center is avg 17 pts 12 RB 2.5 ast on 60% shooting, what does that make Myles Turner who avg 17.5 pts 7 RB 1.4 ast on 50% shooting? Way below average I guess huh?
turner is a bum too. But I’d honestly rather have poeltl because he can be physical and grab rebounds. But how often do you see poeltl go for 30?
@@frietzsche I think it's his third this season
@@jonhoge153 okay my bad. I’ll upgrade him from below average to average. Turner would’ve prevented a 30 piece though, I believe.
Toronto is way better than their records ,very tuff well coach team
Question. I know our pace hasn't been as fast this year so far. But do you think our overall pace for the last couple seasons is catching up with them, with all these injuries?
That's possible, especially because it's hard to play fast when you aren't as talented and need to think a little more.
Halle Berry Burton is terrible...what the h....happened to him.....he has NO MORE SWAG! His 3 ball looks so bad...he passes the ball likew a hot potatoe...and doesn't drive to the hoop at all ! Other than that he's ok!!! Arguably the WORST CONTRACT in the NBA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man we are so hurt but that's still no excuse for Haliburton being this bad!!
Ibou Badji, Chimezie Metu, Robert Covington, Jordan Nwora. They should have signed Badji over Moses.. ✂️ Newton and Johnson. Then added Metu, Covington and Nwora with the available Kendall Brown spot.
Everybody is beating the Raptors..Pacer fans should be pissed off
They shouldve been pissed off when this team sat on thier hands all offseason and capped themselves out resigning a bunch of role players nobody is gonna want at the salaries theyve given them. They had the worst offseason of any playoff team, easily. Horrible.

If our offense isnt clicking they we are Screwed!! Because our best defenders are out i really hope we dont end up like the Hawks ppl have compared us too
Haliburton honestly looks afraid out there!!!!!!!!! UNTRADEABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would love to trade him for another PG because Mathurin is him and will be a superstar in this league!!
Bring in T J Warren. I think he is on the Knicks g league team
Raps didn't have brown olinik scottie and quickly.. why so many excuses?
Not excuses, they should have played better. Injuries are just reality.
@@manuel21863 no center at all isn’t an excuse, they had a 7 footer out there being guarded by a 6’7 rookie
Toss this season, get Cooper Flagg, run it back next year.
Mathurin needs more opportunities to score the ball instead of playing team ball if he was on a different team he would average 30 he can't score till the 4th quarter it's bonkers!!
I believe it's Hali's back, that's the issue. With that said he's not going to be consistent game in and out
No the league has figured him out. He has no real bag. Just dont fall for his waterbug act and all thats left is a step back 3 and horrible defense.
Poor Haliburton getting all the blame the stardom.. i fear
.. is getting to him i hope he turns it around but its not looking great right now. Come on Haliburton get it together man i still root you on.
Haliburton plays hard against Brooks. I guess we'll see.
They should Cut Freeman and bring Okafor forefront.
If Obi could only play defense!
I been saying they should of signed a center to but I guess this team likes being bad 🙈🙈🙈🙈
JJ has to go can't contribute on court was kept for veteran leadership to have team bringing it every night,have had numerous games this year when team mailed it in,and to be enforcer,it's not 1980-90 NBA
Carlisle NEVER plays 2-3 Zone!!! He is a worthless coach!!! 😳😳😳
Haliburton and Mathurin are AWFUL defenders!!!!!!!!!!!! Feel really bad for Pascal!!!
Mathurin actually does ok on defense when he tries. Haliburton not so much he turns his back on the player with the ball and leaves him open smh
@@TheBaptized when he tries????That may be the problem..HALLE BERRY BURTON you're right...wants Nothing to do with contact!
