Time out and commercial.
Scot Pollard looking up at the clock, trying to figure out if it's moved in the past four hours...
Just so everyone knows...this was not a bad effort. A bad effort would have been losing by 15-20. This is so far beneath bad effort that bad effort would actually get a team grade of A.

Price miss; somehow the Kings get a rebound and Price draws a foul and goes to the line.

IND loses ball, Cisco finds it but is able to give it back to the Pacers at the other end.
The Pacers, not to be outdone, commit an over and back and return the ball to the Kings. Luckily, all this occurs with the clock running.

Jason Hart for two.
105-77 IND
Steal by Price for easy breakaway two.
CROWD CHEERS!!!!!
105-79 IND
Cisco for two on another steal.

Wow - your the woman! I got to work and got slammed with weird calls - drunk naked guy at a local fine dining establishment and kids stealing alchohol - maybe they were all home watching the game and were over come with Kingspain - I think I am glad this is a game I didn't see. Thanks for the PBP - awesome as usual

The only nightmare will be if I replay the entire game in my sleep, which I have done before.
I think I'm going to have a Corona now...and watch Cinderella Man again.
Great movie, for those who haven't yet seen it.
And, just in case there's any doubt whatsoever:
I STILL LOVE THIS TEAM!!!

I think we need this guy to turn back the clock and change our guys like he did to George McFly
Adelman in the post game:
Go ahead and ask questions. I'm at a loss. I don't understand that one.
...What happened?
I don't know. We didn't compete. I can't understand how we played well two nights ago and then came out tonight with an effort like that. Everybody in that room is going to have to look at themselves and try and figure out what's going on.
...
He is very upset about how they simply let Jackson continue to shoot open threes. He says, "Knock him down. Do SOMETHING. You can't just sit there passive and let him shoot threes."
"We're not that good right now. We're acting like we win a game and it's okay. And it's not. If this doesn't at least open some eyes that this isn't good enough...Our main people are gonna have to do a helluva lot better than that."
Adelman is showing GREAT control in not completely going off against the lack of effort, etc. by his team. You can see it in his eyes. He's about one more bad game away from grabbing an Uzi and climbing the clock tower.

I have never seen Rick Adelman so blunt when talking about poor performances. He pretty much called out the entire team (albeit without raising his voice or swearing) to start putting forth some effort. I sure hope no one gets upset and demands a trade.
Koz said they're going to be going to the locker room to talk to the players. I'll try and post any comments, unless I throw up in my mouth just a little.

Skinner talks to the media...
We just gotta be consistent. You can pretty much tell if you get off to a shaky start, the second team has to come in and get things turned around.
It's disappointing. Playing well against the Clippers, playing team ball, and then coming out this game and it's an entirely different team. It's a loss. We have to stay focused. We have a three-game road trip coming up. We have to start working.

Hart in the locker room:
NBA finals thing? It's not gonna happen. When you come out with a lackluster effort, this is what happens. Like Rick said at half-time, the fans deserve to boo us. We have to do something. Get a good rebound, do something. You can't fool the fans.
