I mean after being pretty meh all year long and getting dumped on from every direction, he literally flipped the switch. did what a vet can do, playing oppussom, ramping up slowly and being ready at the right time

if Bucks defeat Indy without Giannis, Dame will get his props. helps his legacy as well, dude ballin' out


Lillard's skill set just fits playoff basketball when things tighten up. Jamaal Murray has gone hulk smash in the postseason for the same reason.

Also worthy of note, this team is probably the best Dame has ever played on even when Giannis sits save for maybe his Sophomore campaign.

Hopefully Middleton had just a stinger, not sure they can use any more injuries.

Such a frustrating player....some of it is bad luck but after a while you just have to admit he's injury prone. Every fall looks like it's season ending.

Happens when your center gets smacked in the head with no call.

Haliburton is playing like a guy trying not to get injured.

The Pacers shouldn't be struggling to score so much with Portis at center.

Toppin making up for all those crazy shots in game 1.

Haliburton taking shots today at least. He's clearly going to have to work the offseason being more comfortable going left. Everyone is forcing him left.

Is Lillard going to take a shot without baiting a foul?
