@RealGoofyNinja goofy ahh take. He has the most heart on this team, takes every match up personally and exudes confidence. Dude is a born killer. You build the team around him by letting him be primary scorer. Let tyrese, myles and pascal get their cleanup points because that's really what they do anyway . Benn is the only guy that can be the no.1 option consistently on any given night no matter who is in front of him. Dude is still playing on a leash, even with this starting role
@CLOUDY_mac Why do you think Siakam came here? If Mathurin was our best player no one would sign with small market Indiana. You think Mathurin could recruit other players?? Also he has no handling skills, you need ball handling to be primary scorer, like the dude looks down when he dribbles and has no court vision. He's good but his flaws limit his ceiling
@RealGoofyNinja I can't agree with any of that when tyrese does exactly what you said every time he touches the ball. Tyrese does a lot of stuff on a whim, each dribble is a "ok now what?" If benn can avg 3-4 assists a game, what more does he need to do ? Benn needs a bigger role on this team. Not just being a starter, but as a go to player. He's in year 3. He makes off decisions, but he's also came off the bench his whole career and was hurt for a significant part of last year. He didn't even see the court with siakam last year iirc. The team looks different than last he played. He's gonna grow and force the pacers hand or he'll go be a star somewhere else
@CLOUDY_mac IF Benn averages 3-4 assists. Bro you're talking pure speculation. Mathurin has never come close to averaging 4 assists. He only passes when the coaches specifically tell him to pass. Mathurin at best is a Bradley Beal and if you haven't realized the Wizards were terrible when Beal was the primary scorer. Mathurin is not an MVP caliber player that Tyrese has been since last year. It's easy to ahyt on him right now when he's down but Mathurin has never done what Siakam or Haliburton has done. You're a fool 🤣
Can tell Bennedict is getting frustrated with them not giving him the ball to stop big runs. Yall want him to play within the system… yall need to wake up he is the system!
@Wooweezy33rd yeah he has been a highlight this season but he still doesn't want to pass it...also siakim has been very consistent this season too....if tyrese can break the curse on himself and actually get shots to fall we might be able to win a few games
Toronto does this to all teams. They play really hard. Had they not declared that they were rebuilding they would have gotten many more calls from the refs and more wins. On to the next one
To be completely honest this has to be one of the worst defensive teams I’ve ever seen. It’s way beyond a lack of communication on defense. Being worse than last year’s defense is truly a tall task and they’ve accomplished it.
guys... quit panicking! This has been a crazy tough start to the year. Half the team is injured. Hali will turn it around. Be patient. We're still one of the youngest teams in the league....
Nah it’s the same issues night in and out night out no matter who is playing. The Raptors are a bad team, a team that calls itself a top tier Eastern Conference team has no business loosing to them.
Wow hot take 😂 You realize whoever we drafted in place of Freeman was never going to see the floor? Our FO can't predict that our two backup Centers would tear their Achilles. Wiseman was the biggest Center on the team!
Pascal does not see. Happy. Toronto was his home.. the fans did not seem to appreciate him the way he envision they would. He does not get the same love Lowrie or Derosan gets
That's because he pulled a Vince Carter. When it was obvious the Raps were shopping him he announced he wouldn't sign with any team he was traded to and was going to free agency. Then when he got to Indy he signed long term. Look what the Knicks gave up for O.G. then compare it to what Indy gave up. Yeah FTG.
I wanna know how long Rick is g9nna give these guys to play hard? Hes been talking about how they dint play hard enough for a calendar year and he just keeps repeating himself.
I'm definitely annoyed by this L. What's even worse is all the whiners in this comment section. The team is beat up. Even the guys that are playing are injured. What did you expect?
Let's Go Indiana Pacers were going too take the NBA Finals.Coach, and GM and Owner we have too get Tyrese Halibburton some assistance with ether a great talent Power Forward Or Center don't get me wrong Myles has been holding it down but we need tenacity and fierceness somebody who is not scared too swat a shot at anytime and a average talent Small Forward and the Indiana Pacers and Tyrese Halibburton will win the NBA Finals!
Toronto has had major player out most of the Season....Barnes, Quickly, Brown, Kelly 0Lynic and even Barrett was out to start the season.........@@dustinpayton4612
Nah he got his money, started feeling himself and forgot he actually needs to work on his game in the offseason instead of going to fashion shows just so he can look like a DB before he goes out there and embarrasses himself on yhe court.
@79glane928 damn man... yall have pascal the hardest working player in the league. bro was literally in priest school at 15 started playing basketball at 17. that can't sit well with him if I'm being honest
Mathurin is undoubtedly who we should be building this team around. I like tyrese but benn is THE guy and he keeps showing it every game
@@CLOUDY_mac you can't build around Mathutin bro lolol he has no charisma and he doesn't make his teammates better

And at times h the reason big runs start because he doesn't want to pass the ball he would rather turn it over than pass
@@redthered88 you can’t come for him bro he the only one playing consistently everybody else soft
@Wooweezy33rd yeah he has been a highlight this season but he still doesn't want to pass it...also siakim has been very consistent this season too....if tyrese can break the curse on himself and actually get shots to fall we might be able to win a few games
@@Wooweezy33rd he literally called it out in the interview. You can tell he's getting frustrated.
Yeah OK Rick. Blaming Mathurin & Walker when we all know the problem is Tyrese, let’s talk about that
Toronto does this to all teams. They play really hard. Had they not declared that they were rebuilding they would have gotten many more calls from the refs and more wins.
On to the next one
Wow raptors are also without some key players too,
Miss Pascal,such a fun guy and all respect
To be completely honest this has to be one of the worst defensive teams I’ve ever seen. It’s way beyond a lack of communication on defense. Being worse than last year’s defense is truly a tall task and they’ve accomplished it.
@@mosin9349 Because the coaching staff is clueless!!!
Spicy p cant guard anyone
I mean our top 4 defensive players were out last night lol. And 2 of them been out a few weeks now.
you have no idea what youre talking about
The league has figured Tyrese out. Plus he misses Buddy. His shooting gave him more space.
guys... quit panicking! This has been a crazy tough start to the year. Half the team is injured. Hali will turn it around. Be patient. We're still one of the youngest teams in the league....
Nah it’s the same issues night in and out night out no matter who is playing. The Raptors are a bad team, a team that calls itself a top tier Eastern Conference team has no business loosing to them.
These negative idiots just like to complain and can't be reasoned with
Down 6 starting and rotation player, we are hoping our franchise guy to pick it up unfortunately never showed up 🥲🥲🥲🥲
No one can say that Carlyle doesn't look like Jim Carrey.
Name a max player who has as much trouble as Hali getting pass the defender in front of him…
Exactly!!!! The whole league knows it now too!!! Pacers Front Office is dumb as hell!!!! 😳😳😳
DNP Haliburton pls!
Carlisle's "defense" is still embarrassing.
Carlisle is embarrassing!!! The most clueless coach in basketball!!!
Why do the Pacers keep drafting small centers?
Answer: Because the Front Office is clueless!!! 😳
Wow hot take 😂
You realize whoever we drafted in place of Freeman was never going to see the floor? Our FO can't predict that our two backup Centers would tear their Achilles. Wiseman was the biggest Center on the team!
@ I do realize that. But, I said WHY do the Pacers keep DRAFTING small centers….not anything about their playing time.
@PacingTheFloorNBA you draft best player available if you're not trying to fill specific needs
They just signed one that's 7'2".
@ I know…I was referring to DRAFTING. However, I hope he can play well!!! 🏀🙏🏿🏀🙏🏿
Mathurin is him
Ever since Ty grew his hair out he's been playing like trash, I'm convinced it's not his hamstring it's his haircut😂
Could be affecting his aerodynamics.
He has no bag. Thats the problem. Defenses have figured him out.
@@79glane928 Then explain how he has breakout games for 35. I would think it's more likely the back problems. They seem to be worse this season.
Pascal does not see. Happy. Toronto was his home.. the fans did not seem to appreciate him the way he envision they would. He does not get the same love Lowrie or Derosan gets
That's because he pulled a Vince Carter. When it was obvious the Raps were shopping him he announced he wouldn't sign with any team he was traded to and was going to free agency. Then when he got to Indy he signed long term. Look what the Knicks gave up for O.G. then compare it to what Indy gave up. Yeah FTG.
Why does Carlisle NEVER switch to a 2-3 zone to slow down offenses!!!
Answer: Because he is clueless!!! 😳
Haliburton the new Ben Simmons?
Not even close. You'd have to reach for parallels.
I wanna know how long Rick is g9nna give these guys to play hard? Hes been talking about how they dint play hard enough for a calendar year and he just keeps repeating himself.

When are we going to address the elephant in the room? Tyrese Haliburton is playing like a bum.
Can’t…we are stuck with him for 5 years…No Championship for the foreseeable future!!!
We need to remove him as a starter for a few games like the colts did to AR! Maybe that will motivate him to stop playing like a bum
Give it some time. Patience is the game.
@@castlekingside76 time? That's something we don't have.
@@jimmiecarter9479 yes because our team is so old....
How can we not win against Toronto 😢
@@Tony.aussiecoltsfan Because our head coach is always outcoached!
@@PacingTheFloorNBAback to back game on the road. With half the team injured. Oh i wonder how
@@PacingTheFloorNBA not the reason
Toronto has had major player out most of the Season....Barnes, Quickly, Brown, Kelly 0Lynic and even Barrett was out to start the season.........@@dustinpayton4612
Don’t worry the 6IX is coming
The problem is Tyrese!!!!!
Haliburton is not a max player.
raps fan here, is hali hurt?? he looks like trash
Nope shouldn’t be just selling us welcome to the party
Nah he got his money, started feeling himself and forgot he actually needs to work on his game in the offseason instead of going to fashion shows just so he can look like a DB before he goes out there and embarrasses himself on yhe court.
@79glane928 damn man... yall have pascal the hardest working player in the league. bro was literally in priest school at 15 started playing basketball at 17. that can't sit well with him if I'm being honest
Your team sucks
We know
