He's an amazing player.. but you have to look under the Hood... As a Pacers fan and as a Ben Mathurin fan I am exasperated with seeing how Ben has been handled this year. Last night against Miami we allowed 142 points and it was a complete disaster. When Haliburton scores 40 or more. The team is 0-2 When he scoresd 30 or more the is 2-4. This #1 fast pace offence with the worst defence is complete nonsene and just not gonna cut it and not generating wins. Ben Math is playing 4-5 minutes less per game than last year and while his D is not very good it has improved slightly. There is no reason to cut down his minutes. His boards and assists are up. TO are down and shooting percentage slightly better also. The team then when out and got a diminutive 6'3 guard this summer in Bruce Brown who is not a scorer to take minutes away from him.He's a good player. But no star potential. Just a role player. No size... how many 6'4 and under guards do we need on this team??? Same dumb move of when they trade for Nwora and then trade Duarte away... (prefered we kept Duarte). Meanwhile Nwora NEVER sees the floor. Just dumb. Duarte could shot create. We could have used that against the Heat last night.. Dumb. We are in win mode now with Carlisle and some fans completely enamored with Haliburton's stats and win now mode ( yet we are not winning more, record is less than last year at this time) and Buddy a 30 year old jacker-upper who I like, but is not the future is also eating minutes away. And the one player who SHOULD play more is Nesmith but he doesn't either. Pacers don't appear to know what they're doing. Mathurin's growth is stomped, Pacers need a#4 PF real bad, maybe trade him to a team that needs a #2 and has a good #4... I'm open to ideas here. You have to unleash Benn or trade him. Him standing in the corner 3 waiting for passes that never come is not working and stunting his growth and development and not helping Pacers win. Meanwhile just like he did in Dallas, Carlisle will be enamored with his new high usage toy ( Doncic then) and Haliburton now.... And yet, the end result will be the same. Great stats, great offence... bad losses. No playoffs. Please trade Ben Mathurin or unleash him so he can fulfill his destiny. Ben has superstar potential and this year, he doesn't smile anymore. There is no more swag to his game, doesn't even argue calls much with the refs. Doesn't communicate with teammates. He is not having fun. He feels blocked. Can you blame him?
It’s Sad that pacers fans don’t respect this man enough. The only player other than Reggie miller that enjoyed being a pacer. Just because you didn’t draft him doesn’t mean you have to blame him for your first round picks being busts 😂
…who are these Pacers fans not respecting him? Anyone who has watched a game with him can tell that we need him. Look at last year when he was hurt, look at us losing by 50 to Boston…without him, the team looks like headless chickens. He is our franchise; and the FO sure respects the guy enough to throw him the bag. Sure, he can make mistakes, but the dude dropping 27/12 on average this season definitely isn’t the problem. I challenge you to find a fan that doesn’t see him as our guy after he’s done all this at 23!
Feel so blessed to have Ty be our star
Congratulations Tyrese your having an amazing season right now keep up the good work I'm so proud of you as a fan ❤
As a all time Pacers fan we need to get this man A a another scorer buddy ain't it

Buddy Hield is killing his career
He's an amazing player.. but you have to look under the Hood...

I love what Tyrese is doing. Quickly becoming one of my all time favorites.
