@AlexGoldenNBA Honestly, TJ could take on spot minutes let Sheppard or Obi start. TJs lack of shooting really showed last night when everyone played down. My ideal rotation
Hali
Nesmith
Obi
Pascal
Myles
Nembhard
Jalen Smith
Sheppard
Bring in TJ the minute we need an offensive spark
@AlexGoldenNBA - No Doug, divide his minutes between Obi and Shepp
- Hali and/or Pascal need to be on the court all 48 minutes
- Nesmith on Lillard from the jump
- Myles needs to play more confident and play less aggressive paint defense
- use our offensive rebounds better (14 v 5 is great)
@PacersFandom Absolutely. No reason I should be seeing Doug McDermott on my screen this much. Especially when Sheppard does the same thing from an offensive point, but brings more energy and defense. Sheppard didn't shoot well, but on the other hand he got his shot multiple times.
@PacersFandom Putting TJ on Dame just shouldn't be done, on top of the fact that Rick decided to let dame get 35 on Nembhard before changing the match up. Nembhard should've been off of him after 19 in the 1st.
@PacersFandom I really hate to say I agree with this, but I do. Last night when we were on that run, the big thing I remember is him doing a side step in the opposite corner for a 3. He passed out of it to Pascal who got blocked. I do think Hali is the problem rn, but Rick is there too.
i know there's a 100% chance that Caitlin Clark gets drafted by the Indiana Fever but it still doesn't feel real like this kind of stuff doesn't happen to Indy teams 💀
