The Indiana Pacers Just Can't Seem To Win Against The Atlanta Hawks
The Indiana Pacer's issues within the team continue after they lost by 13 in Atlanta versus an energetic Jeff Teague and Atlanta Hawk lineup. I believe the picture of Indiana Pacer David West above explains everything, and pacer fans are starting to get worried that their no.1 seed won't make it out of round 1.
Tonight when the Pacers needed to continue their hot streak that they had in game two everyone struggled. Especially Roy Hibbert who went an abysmal 2 of 9 from the floor. It's just like the basket is the size of a nickel right now for him. Even though Lance Stephenson led the Indiana Pacers with 21 points and Louis Scola chipped in with 17 points, Paul George played below par with only 12 points.
In game 1 Roy Hibbert had all of the right shots and just couldn't get one in the basket, and the rest of the Indiana Pacers seemed to be there in body but just not there mindset wise. So when game 2 rolled around and they were clicking on all cylinders Indiana fans were on their feet.
Little did they know last night the pacers would struggle yet again from the floor on offense and defense. It just seemed like the pacers were 5 steps behind the hawks Jeff Teague in the third quarter and in the fourth.
The Atlanta Hawks Crush The Indiana Pacers In The 3rd Quarter
Jeff Teague played phenomenal he ended up with 22 points and 10 assists and Kyle Korver literally ate the pacers up from behind the arc. Korver hit the pacers up for four three's to finish up the game, and send the Atlanta, GA fans into a frenzy.
The coaching scheme or better yet the game plan for lats night's game was on point for the hawks, because they literally sped up the pace of the game and ran the pacers out of the gym. The Hawks started to pull away in the third quarter and they literally never looked back. Teague tore through the paint on the pacers and kept his eyes on the basket as he took it to the rim possession after possession. You can see the highlights in the video below.
He never kept his head down though, because he kept an eye out for the crafty come off of the screen Kyle Korver. Boy did Korver not disappoint either! He literally filled up the stat sheet from the 3 point line for the hawks.
Will the Indiana Pacers Pull Out A Win Against Atlanta In Game Four?
The critics are already talking and it's looking like the faith in the Indiana Pacers and their future in the playoffs is looking slim to known. To be honest even thought the pacers are the number one seed in the east they are literally struggling like the number eight seed. It will be very interesting to see if they can bounce back in game four, because if they can't they will be headed home in the first round.
Plus they won't be able to face the Miami heat team that knocked them out of the eastern conference finals last year. We shall stay tuned to see the future of the Indiana pacers.
