How the Pacers came in like the Feds on the Raptors and took EVERYTHING! "Pookie"

"I got this young fella!" 

Naomi Wolf, the well-known author and former political advisor, once said, "Obstacles, of course, are developmentally necessary: they teach kids strategy, patience, critical thinking, resilience and resourcefulness." Albert Bandura, the Stanford psychologist,  gave into us like this, "In order to succeed, people need a sense of self-efficacy, to struggle together with resilience to meet the inevitable obstacles and inequities of life." Then Jamais Cascio, the famous speaker, jumped out of the whip and shouted, "Resilience is all about being able to overcome the unexpected. Sustainability is about survival. The goal of resilience is to thrive." 

Well playas...the Indiana Pacers definitely overcame the unexpected, survived and thrived on Monday night against the Toronto Raptors. When boyz tipped off at 7pm Eastern Standard time in Indianapolis the Pacers  defense was still stuck in traffic on I-70 tryin' to get into the joint. At the 6:52 mark of the first quarter the duns from Canada were already up 26-5 on a boy and it looked like the joint was over before it had even started. However, the home town cats figured out how to get off of the expressway in time enough to beat the brakes off of Toronto 106-90 and go to the crib. 

Let's keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! By the time boyz sat down good, the Pacers were gettin' their sneakers and lunch money taken by a bunch of cats shootin' like snipers at the Carter and stealin' like Pookie in the lab. It was turnin' into a classic project beat down and the Raptors were on a pace to score 52 points in the first freakin' quarter bruh! 

Then all of a sudden the Pacers defense pulled up with the tail light busted, the transmission slippin' with the ceiling carpet hangin' and went to work on a boy. They went on a 39-4 run and by the 11:38 mark of the second quarter they were up 29-28! Wheredeydodatat? And by the 4:08 mark of the same quarter these duns are up 44-30! Again, Wheredeydodatat? Ain't that much defense in the world bruh! Toronto just simply started wettin' the bed as these cats from Indiana started climbin' out of the ride comin' through the front door. 

Jordan Hill pulled up drivin' the joint with the seat leaned all the way back like an old pimp rockin' some purple gators with the suit to match. He jumped out of the ride and dropped off a strong 20 points and 13 rebounds as CJ Miles kicked in the front door like the Feds with 17! Monta Ellis caught boyz off-guard when he popped the lock on the back door to sting them with 18! Then PG13 came through the bedroom window with 16 as Rodney Stuckey cleaned up the crime scene with 10. 

By the time they left the joint there was absolutely no evidence of Toronto comin' in and pushin' their weight around or takin' anything that didn't belong to them. As a matter of fact, they left the buildin' without their sneakers or jewelry on. And they had given up any stitch of pride or confidence that they had initially walked in with. Lesson learned? The next time you catch a boy sleepin' strip him butt naked of every ounce of confidence he's got and make sure that his homeboys can't get in to help. And NEVER EVER sell Woof tickets without the woof playboy!  Oh yeah, and stop me when I start lyin'!
