Knicks also requested to interview Donovan. So they went to a play-in team.....but didn't request to interview Doc.

If our front office doesn't see this as an issue then their even worse than I thought.

Sprewell is a state hoops legend. Watch it.

I don't know if it's just because we've come from the OKC crowd but this Pacers' crowd is pretty quite for a finals game.

Those are the calls that make no sense. There are how many refs? They think he touched it? In what world could 2 refs think that was a deflection and overrule the other?

What is Caruso doing on that inbound?

Getting 35 from Mathurin and McConnel sure changed the outcome of this game. Otherwise average game from the Indy starters.

OKC taking way too long to get into their sets. Need to up the urgency.

Chet doesn’t have the body for these moments. Kind of embarrassing at this point in his life.

OKC just doesn't seem interested in trying to win. Just tossing up garbage 1 on 1 shots. Lazy on defense.

Indy moves the ball quickly down the court and is always probing. OKC is content to wander up, get into their sets after about 10 secs and settle into a 1v1.

Can’t believe it but Indy really looks like they’re gonna go all the way.

Is everyone going to ignore the pretty blatant punch to the balls by Nesmith on that flagrant?

blazza18 · Post #1651 » by **blazza18** » Thu Jun 12, 2025 3:04 am

That would be a flagrant in the regular season

That wasn’t a flagrant? lol. I thought that was worse than what Grayson did to Caruso.

Is that not at least a clear path foul?

I guess I don't understand the rules for flagrants, but the combination of no play on the ball and a play on the balls, to me, seems like it should be a flagrant.

Chet oh nooo

OKC better try and figure out who values Holmgren this offseason. They might still be able to get something good for him before he becomes another Giddey.

I will never "gotta give it to Indiana". They can piss off. Hate them so much.

Wonka · Post #1658 » by **Wonka** » Thu Jun 12, 2025 3:08 am

Chet refuses to make any effort to build a professional level body, and it’s finally showing. Should’ve benched him 4 minutes ago.

jschligs · Post #1659 » by **jschligs** » Thu Jun 12, 2025 3:08 am

Indy's ability to go 110% the final 6 minutes and hit their shots makes them so deadly. And OKC just continues to do boneheaded ****. I still want to say this is OKC's series, because they'll go home for 2 more. But I'm starting to second guess that.

This is still Pacers in 6 like I said when Indiana was getting destroyed during game 1. OKC can't score if they aren't getting easy fastbreak points off turnovers. They do not have the conditioning to continue to play Indiana's pace either, they have been absolutely gassed since the beginning of the 3rd quarter.
