Yep. I just watched it.

Pacers went on a run to win the game.

Who had the Pacers being good? After all the Jazz talk early, the Pacers are the supposed to be tanking team that keeps winning. 12-8 and 4th in the East

Kevin Pritchard when Rob Pelinka calls him about that "inevitable" Turner & Hield for Westbrook trade.

It was 101 - 84, Lakers with a 17 point lead and 9:40 to go in the game. Pacers ended the game on a 32 - 14 run.

Not tonight



3 total points in 8 games is crazy when he’s averaging 30 minutes a game in those 8.

PJ is just parking in the corners launching an occasional 3.

As for Halliburton, he's playing great, and I just can't cheer for him yet. The wound hasn't fully healed.

Pj Tucker is a top 10 most overrated player in the last 10 years. His story to the league was cute but he sucked and always will

Tucker scored about 9 ppg for us for most of his years as a Sun. Then he left and averaged about ~ 7 ppg for several years for TOR and HOU. Then he kind of fell off a cliff about 2-3 years ago and has been mostly averaging 3-4 ppg since. I think he's getting pretty washed at this point.

Tucker's reputation has been carrying him for a while. He's like Ariza where winning teams today think he's going to make a difference for them because he was a roleplayer on some winning teams 4-5 years ago.

Eh, he’s out there for defense. Just think he’s realized not to do anything on offense anymore. That was our biggest problem with him, he wanted to try things offensively that he shouldn’t…like handle on the break or take above the break 3s
