HUGE night from Marc.

 

[kwebbvols2344]

We need more performances like that from Gasol.

 

[TBrown]

We need more defensive rebounds

Great performance all around other than that. Annihilated on the glass.

 

[95 Vol Alum]

Yes, rebounding was not good.

1-0

 

[TBrown]

Yes, rebounding was not good.

Starting TA and Courtney (small), playing Leuer more minutes, Zbo aging, and Kosta and marc both being soft ... Not the greatest combo. Marc gotta continue the assertiveness. We looked great outside of rebounding though.

 

[95 Vol Alum]

I didn't check the numbers, but it seemed the rebounding was better in the 4Q.

 

[TBrown]

Also thad is incredible and I love that Dave put TA on him last couple possessions

Same.. Zbo and marc started flexing some muscle. Board like that in the first half and the games over at halftime

 

[95 Vol Alum]

The bench was 3-16. Koufos did nothing. That ain't gonna fly.

Prince, DNP

Vince was forcing it a little and Leuer had some good looks not drop. But yeah.. Bench.. Meh.

 

[YankeeVol]

I expect the bench will play better

 

[TBrown]

I expect the bench will play better

Agreed. They also won't be left on an island this year. I imagine starters will be on the court at all times (except blowouts)

 

[Thrasher865]

Finally got that regular season opener monkey off our backs!

 

[gordonr24]

Not too worried about this team. We won't blow out many but they know how to win the close ones.

 

[Nerd-Vol]

54 wins. Give or take 4.

 

[YankeeVol]

82-0!

 

[TBrown]

Koufos and Leuer pairing cannot rebound

This is the Grizzlies to lose. Expecting a beat down. Hibbert is the only Pacers starter from last season playing tonight. And CJ Watson who is one of the teams better back ups isn't playing either.

Wow... just realized Stuckey hasn't played either after one quarter.


Edit: Stuckey is in now to start the 2nd quarter. Was going to be in disbelief of the Pacers had yet another player out with injury. Paul George, David West, George Hill and CJ Watson all out.

Wtf are we doing


Vince is cold blooded

I didn't even see why both Gasol and Leur went down.

I'm surprised the Pacers were able to come back after going down 11. The Grizz are a much better team. If it wasn't so early in the season, the Grizz would take out this Pacers team by 30 and bench their starters for the 4th. As much as I like Vogel and think he's similar to Thibs, Pacers just don't have the talent Thibs has had when Rose was out.

Pacers are literally just making bad shots.

Taking over now.
