Meh it's alright. Indiana played like a desperate team....had they lost this game they would've been F.I.N.I.S.H.E.D. The Pacers aren't going to put on the offensive display they have tonight every game anyway; Their offense still sucks.

I just want us to not stoop to their level and take Game 2 for granted. We gotta take care business..

PG played his best game in like 3 months. I doubt he plays like this again this series. ATL still had a chance although they let a golden chance get away tonight since IND was looking all kinds if bad and confused early:

Scola won them this game because ATL was gonna blow them out early.

Off topic, but whenever I hear the music for those Chris/Cliff Paul commercials....my eyes immediately glaze over and my brain just stops. When will they end?!

ATL & Golden State are playing with fire if you ask me. On Golden State's side they don't have that much depth at all & with Bogut out, Blake Griffin could average 30 + easily if he stays out of foul trouble. Clippers earned that win but at the same time Golden State came in with the mindset of "We've got 1 win on the road so let's just coast in Game 2 mentality". Oracle is a great arena but good teams win wherever & the Clippers are the better team

Hawks were in control of this game but thanks to their coach & their dumb turnovers they gave life back to this Pacers team. Hawks have 0 fan support in the Phillips Arena & on top of that the Pacers have confidence again...But i'm not surprised, Hawks have a history of choking in big time games in the postseason

The Pacers are such frontrunners Its like no matter what they do they cant win without over the top celebrations. Its just hilarious to see after how bad they've played lately. Cant wait to smash those clowns if we get the chance.

The Pacers celebrated like they won the championships at the end of the 3rd qtr today, it was so funny. 3 players from the bench rushed the court, scola was celebrating so hard.

who cares? they're not winning anything :lol:

i hate to sound like a dick but there is literally only one relevant team in the East and that's us

Haha if only the Hawks adopted the Wiz' mentality. That's how you get greedy...

The bulls "fans" at UC were leaving with 1 Min left in the 4th quarter last night and also during overtime. I guess nobody wants to talk about that or make a big fuss. One of the original bandwagoners and dick riders = bulls ****..

N the pacers... Ahh.. That arrogance.. That's playing the "right way" folks.. Don't you forget that.. If not for Mike Budenholzers's stupidity Bird would've been in jail today for strangling some of the Pacers to death.

Shouldnt the Nets wear down by the time they play the Heat (If they make it that far..)?

KG couldnt get off the bench. Pierce had no lift last night.

Toronto forces this into 6 games series at least......they should be gassed by the time they play the Heat.
