Im sorry, mathurim should be starting over nesmith. Yes, they lose a bit of defense, but they gain a ton of potential rebounding and points.
To me its as simple as him playing within the system and them turning him loose to do his thing when needed. Thats all players, especially stars. They take over when needed, but play team ball as much as possible. We wont know if hes that player unless we let him play. His floor doesn't seem bad, and his celing seems pretty high, so give the kid a chance.
Bro, There are SO MANY PEOPLE in INDIANA who "Claim" to know Basketball, BUT ACTUALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING ABOUT Basketball let alone PACERS Basketball. Our "FANS" think on a BASIC LEVEL. "Rick doesn't start Ben…FIRE HIM". "Myles is Tall so therefore if he isn't getting 20 and 10 Every night….Trade him". "Hali goes through Struggles… He's overrated". Our "Fans" think we should NEVER Lose or that the Other Team isn't in the NBA Lol. You wanna call our "Problems", Problems?… I'LL TAKE THOSE ANYTIME. GO PACERS! ALL OF THEM! And Ben is OBVIOUSLY our "Manu Ginobli".
Ben = Manu Ginobli. Get on board y'all.
Benn should be starting. He just needs to catch and shoot more and cuts more and I believe it will work.
He’s a good C&Ser already he just not wired to do it. It’ll come with time and experience
Once Mathurin can learn to catch and shoot instead of catching and pausing its game over
Mathurin is The Best Player on The Pacers if it wasn't for Rick Carlisle Politics I just hope We don't mess around and Lose Him He(Mathurin) could turn down that Contract Extended this Summer especially if Him and Rick Carlisle don't bridge a Workable Relationship.
Siakim… should be the 6th man.
The fact that pistons and bucks play each other for their last two days bodes well for us
You can use analytics all you want…the eye test says he is clearly the most offensively gifted guy on the team. It is Ricks job to put him in position to help the team win. Ben is being handcuffed period. He wasn't drafted 6 to be Ginobli or Harden (Harden left due to being confined to the bench). Sometimes you need to give him the ball and get the hell out of the way. Let's start with telling the team to pass him the ball (Hali). There shouldn't be 10 possessions where he doesn't get touches. I'm sorry brother.
Bradley was a good signing. Our one weakness is rebounding at times and he helps!
