IC Cold Links: Pacers Catch Raptors At The Wrong Time

The Indiana Pacers struggled to slow down the sizzling Toronto Raptorslast night and thanks to the home-and-home slot on the schedule the two teams get to do it all over again tomorrow night at Conseco Fieldhouse.

Last week in discussing the difficulties facing Tyler Hansbrough whenever he returns, Jim O'Brien mentioned how at this time of year most teams have refined their games and are playing at a higher level. The Raptors fit that description perfectly, having won five straight and 15 of their last 20.

Meanwhile, the Pacers are still sputtering along, working through various tweaks to the playing rotation while staying small. One thing is for sure, the small ball +/- has taken a hit over the past three games.

After the jump, more links of interest from the loss last night.

Bird has ruined our franchise

What else is there to say?? One man, has ruined Indiana Pacer basketball. It’s so sad. Its not even that the Pacers are losing, its how they are losing. Poor management, poor coaching, players not wanting to play all leads to one man and that is Larry Bird. Larry Bird is not a hall of famer. Hall of Famers dont destroy Basketball teams and sell out Indiana. I just dont see the Pacers remaining in Indiana. Larry Bird is taking that from us. This season is a real life basketball version of the movie, Major League. Larry Bird belongs in the Hall of Shame.

Pitchforks & Torches Anyone?

I’m a life long Pacer fan since the ABA days and I couldn’t agree with you more!

Lester Conner is coaching tonight ........

Expect great things ……. can anyone explain what is so appealing about JOB? why do so many support his losing ways?

I don't think there's a single person on IC who supports JOB

…except maybe that his losing ways will get us a higher draft pick

Rumor about the players not liking his extension...

I’m sure we are lagging way behing the players on this one, so the rumor that the players were incredulous about him being extended was probably true… At the time that was hard to see, but it is now easy for the whole world to see unless your name is Larry Bird, of course!

What does Larry see in the guy?

I see no value in him as coach … is he a pro coach because w/ his lack of personality he cant recruit
