I guess Harden's evil spell is still working on Ty and making him choke in the playoffs.. damn you James Harden
wtf happened to this guy? how do you go from 20/10 to 3rd string scrub in less than one year? its like he forgot how to play basketball

I haven't watched this series, but I would have thought they were staggering either PG, Monta, G. Hill with the second unit, at least for a couple of minutes. Is Lawson even really running the 2nd unit, or does he share that duty with Stuckey. If you use the word "Disaster", don't use net rating, that didn't tell me enough, if not anything at all. Is he not understanding plays? What's the problem? Anyone can beat a writer these days smh. That would also somewhat imply that his signing was supposed to put them over the top or something? Without a training camp? It's not like they lacked playmakers with Monta/PG/G. Hill/Young and Ellis, I didn't even think he would get major playing time.
Whats "beat" are the exhaustive excuses for Ty Lawson they are verging on insane like the same excuses over and over for Corey Brewer, Dwight Howard, and, JBB.
I've watched all 3 games of the series, and the Pacers do tend to get outscored by a large margin whenever Ty is on the court..the reason being Ty cannot defend at all if his life depended on it (and always has been), while his offensive game is also just not there, making him practically useless..
I can't make a clear judgement in either case really. Not much information from the Indy writer. You gonna claim something, don't make the reader do all the damn work. I never really watched enough Houston games start to finish to judge Lawson here either, but I also didn't think it would work to begin with given how much Harden plays and handles the ball. It's not easy to just start playing off the ball. So he's still "garbage" to me from his Denver days. But in reality, I don't know much about what's going on with him, if there's even really a problem, or he just needs the right situation to thrive. Need to ask more questions, less identifying with favorite players for self-esteem, then maybe you guys won't get your panties in a bunch so easily.
Really is strange, he played much better in the reg season for Indy. Only 13 games, but the discrepancy is huge http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/l/lawsoty01.html#all_playoffs_advanced
