I don't see him on the refs schedule. Looks like James Capers, Josh Tiven, and Sean Wright from what USA Today is saying.

Terrible for Hali and the Pacers

Dame
Tatum
Hali - if confirmed

All three out of the East next year. Riley and Masai maybe should have been more aggressive in getting Durant. Two of the above were already out.

Heat/Raptors down bad. Can we interest them or the Bucks in Beal?

Thunder deserve to lose. They keep jacking 3s when they could take easy shots and be up by 10

Indy put up one hell of a fight without Hali. Obi Toppin had an awful stretch in the 3rd, I couldn't believe Carlisle kept him in so long. Indy probably wins without the Hali injury. I don't know if OKC will be back next season.
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

This series turned into 2019 NBA Finals. Raptors vs Warriors. Since KD tore his achilies who knows maybe Warriors would have beaten them. Same with Haliburton maybe Pacers win this with a healthy Hali. Oh well. congrats Thunder.

Not going to lie, it sucks to see an injury in game 7. But Halliburton avg 14 ppg and 6 apg in the finals! He wasn't that good this series. Siakim kept them in a lot of the series. Myles Turner wasn't good, and neither was Toppin. McConnell was a great spark, and they should have left him in longer in games.

Hali was 3 of 4 from 3 in 7 minutes tonight before his Achilles went. Seemed on track for a good game

Yep, I think they win if he puts up a good game - which was pretty sure to happen after that start. He would have scored 35+ or had a 20/20 game...
Too bad, this OKC team is so vanilla for me, they do nothing that I would really enjoy watching... but congrats for them and their front office especially.
