    Pacers season going downhill just like last year

  2. TheRealPdGaming

    Damn. So many people getting injury diagnosis outside of the games this year. Hopefully, he recovers well.

  3. recollectionsmayvary

    Fuck, he’s been such a joy to watch this year :/

    The pain never stops here in Indy 😭😭💀

    why can’t Indiana have nice things? These guys were fun

  6. growsonwalls

    Damn. Tough break. The East is a mess right now. So many injuries.

  7. How/when did he get hurt? Didn’t hear about anything

  8. Fuck this season man. Not saying they were gonna win it all or anything but I really wanted a fully healthy pacers in the playoffs. Feel like they could’ve surprised some teams

  9. PrinceAlli

    Is pascal guaranteed to re-sign with the Pacers? I haven’t followed that situation

  10. don’t think this affects tham too much in the standings with philly struggling and them being a comfortable 3.5 games ahead of chicago for 9th.

    God fucking damnit, I still think we make the playoffs but this stings, guess it’s time to see if Jarace can step up

  12. behappysometimes

    Not even an Indiana guy but this blows, I like that team a lot.

  13. airbornetoxic

    indianapolis pro sports teams and rookies with season ending injuries- name a better duo

  14. motherseffinjones

    This is terrible news on so many fronts

  15. RobbobertoBuii

    the injury bug has really been ravaging the NBA post All-Star break…

  16. basher505

    Damn the injury bug has been relentless this season.

  17. Damn that was sudden. There goes one of our only guys who can create his own shot. Who else we have… TJ, Pascal, Hali

  18. Outside of the Celtics everyone has huge injuries in the East.

  19. justthefreakingtip

    Shoulders really are delicate man hope he heals well

  20. Drawing_The_Line

    WTF! That guy has been an awesome player for the Pacers this season. Perhaps I wasn’t paying attention, but this seemed to come out of nowhere. Tough break, hope he’s ok after surgery.

    I feel like literally every year now there are multiple major injuries that completely alter the trajectory of the season for the league. Is there a point where it’s just, like, weird? Injuries should be a rare, unfortunate event, not an expected outcome. Many are not even freak injuries, but the body saying “nah fuck that.”

    Is there a point where we just question whether NBA players are just playing too many games, in too high of an intensity, in too short a period of time?

  22. boringexplanation

    Pacers always seem to get the injury prone guys

  23. RidiculousBacklog

    Hello darkness…. Ya’ll know the rest. *sigh*

    Pacers go from possibly being able to have a really good 1st round series to possibly being on the receiving end of an asswhooping just like that.
