    Nice blowout and while keeping the minutes down on Lebron and AD.
    Now just take care of business in game 4.
    Why do teams tank? Ask a Spurs fan.

          Not as much so as rooting for the damn Warriors.

            I disagree it doesn’t get any worse than rooting for Lakers and Lebron. Screw the Lakers, screw Lebron and screw
            LA celebrities too while we’re at it.

              I like Lebron. Always have. Rooting for Lakers over the Dray*****es. I do like Kerr, however.

                We're blessed to see 2 of the goats go at it again. This is gonna be a way more interesting series than Kings\Lakers would've been. Imagine the beating Bron and AD would've put on that soft Kings frontcourt.

                  I wonder what'd take to get him now? Probably not a ton.

                    Lakers front office deserves a ton of credit for building a contender without giving up both those picks.

                      I'm not a Lebron nor a Laker fan but the current rendition of the Lakers with Lebron is nothing for me to hate. The only player on GS that I dislike is Draymond but I despise the Warriors. I hate their style of play and how their success playing small ball has impacted the game.

                          Does anyone think laker fans would root for the Pacers if we were in the playoffs. I doubt it. When we were going against Miami Lebron you know every LA celebrity was rooting for Lebron and for us to lose. They did not wana see us in the finals. Lakers and Celtics have the most titles ever I would never root for anyone of those teams. Let another fanbase and city feel the joy of a championship they’ve had enough.

                            Why do you hate L.A. celebrities? Nicholson is a fan the same as any other fan.

                              Case by case basis. Root for the Lakers because the W's are so cringe. Nuggets over the Lakers.

                              I'm rooting for a Miami/Denver finals. Love to see Butler take the cup, but Nuggets first would also be cool.

                                I personally don't care if someone roots for the same team as I do; if I did, I most likely wouldn't be a Pacer fan, since I'm certain our fanbase is in the lower echelon of national appeal. I've known alot of people whom were born and raised in Indy, are basketball fans, and don't care for the Pacers, at all.

                                My deal with the Lakers, is that I lived in California before moving here to Indy, and Lakers were one of the teams I did like. Them and SuperSonics. To be honest, my first several years of living in Indianapolis, the Pacers were straight garbage! I didn't start following them until Person came along.
