Hartenstein and Chet were absolute trash in this game. SGA the only that brought offense. The rest of the room was shook.

People don't know how potent that Pacers offense is. Timberwolves were easy to shut down, fairly one-dimensional, the Pacers are a different animal.
I mean when you have the entire team shot making like there are right now.
Obi hitting 5 3's playing crunch time minutes in the finals....is this real life?

What’s funny is- I was talking to my friend and the series odd for Indy to win was 7-1.
First thing I thought about was that game 1 tying shot he hit against us and how lucky that was. I thought maybe it’s worth it to put money on them to upset OKC. So I did it. Then I looked at both games in the regular season and said they’re no way - so I canceled the bet.
Indy takes game one in okc. Crazy!
Now the odds are 2 1/2 for Indy to win….

Carlisle might be the best coach in the league. Not that he makes or misses shots, causes runs or whatever, but he's always in tune and and adjusting with the game, applying a plan, and working to figure out how to move forward at each fork in the road.
He literally used to be like Thibs years ago - hard ass, slow down, defensive, grind it out coach, and he's completely evolved.

Wow hard to think anything other than pacers are a team of destiny.
I would criticize OKC for falling in love with small ball especially down the stretch.

He can't turn something out of nothing like Spo but if you give him horses he's the best tactician out there.
If he wins this chip you really have to think about putting him in that exclusive coach tier ever.

Haliburton could have been a Knick but we chose Randles replacement and then traded Randles replacement before Randle and then Randles replacement got into the finals before Randle and the Knicks.
Fire Thibs!

He's definitely better than Spoelstra. He didn't need a superteam to win a championship.

Their defense held up, I can see why they put Nesmith on Jalen Williams too, just completely took him out the game. It must be like a vacation for Nesmith to go from Brunson to Williams.
