    I'll be Optimistic if we're still in sight of the 8th seed come January.. With Kuz still coming off the bench and the 3pt shooting of Ball, Ingram and Nance closing out some closely contested games...

    ...if we'll ever have closely contested games.

    What we wanna see and just like how the saying goes.. Its not how you lose(as well), its how you bounce back.

    GSW has shown theyre not unbeatable. Lost to the queens the other day. Lets send them a message and raise some hell tonight. Stay humble, stay positive yall! Lets get this W.

    That was a great game against Golden State. Let’s not act like we should have won that one, GS did what real championship teams do down the stretch and execute and their stars make shots. We played with a ton of hart tonight, so I’m good with the results.

    2 time champion with experienced Finals closers closed us out. Even down 7 in OT we did not quit though. Amazing game from Ingram, incredible defense by Randle, Zo hit some threes, fun game. Quite the moral victory.

    Yeah I don’t know how anyone could not be encouraged.

    That Warriors team may go down as the greatest team of all time. They’re that good.

    Lakers played them to a stand still and it took overtime to beat them.

    I don’t think the Warriors were coasting either. Lakers just brought it tonight on both ends.

    Definitely a game free agents look and say wow that’s a team with potential.

    Almost had that one-against the champs! If they can play consistently this way throughout December they might win a few more than just a couple. Probably a George and or a Cousins away from winning this one.

    It was Durant and Curry taking turns when needed in the clutch.

    We may have lost this game but not everything was lost especially with the promise of this team. It has already become a habit. We can stay with teams. Just a little tweak and we'll be winning these close games.

    And by that I mean just one extra player.

    I disagree , there was a fault on Ingram so it should have been a win

    You mean a star free agent could look at this game and say “hey, if i were in there with these kids we could win these games, instead of me standing around and watching Westbrook chuck shots”, and not just look at the box score and say “pass”? No... They’re not savvy enough to do that, couldn’t be.

    You know they were never going to call that.

    No need to complain about a call the refs never make down the stretch.

    Boy. You put PG in, same passing game. Same ball movement, same LA basketball and that 8-13 could be 13-8 right now. Damn you PG! PG Paul George, not PG me.

    We fought hard tonight and almost won. Golden State is just the better team. It was nice to see ZO makes some shots. BI and Randle had a great game. I don’t know how anyone would not be encouraged after watching our guys this game.

    Ahmm... I take it back. PG13 did really wanna go to LA, BADLY. It's Indy's FO's fault. I can't hate them any more than I do right now. f*** them.

    We would've been all around the playoffs conversations right now!!!
