Got a nice surprise when your boy took it to the counter and there was another 20% off on top of the 70%. I told the cashier you might as well gave it to me for free. Happy day.


which location?


Also what shoes are these? A 400 dollar pair that you ended up paying 100 for?
Just some European brand walking shoes, very nice leather and suede. Super comfy, not a brand I'm familiar with.

It took one KAT stop and then the Pacers stopped their matchup hunting and now it's a back and forth again. It's been downhill since.

OG kept then in this game when Brunson and Bridges were awful. KAT stepped up on offense at the start of the 4th. Pacers were playing a pretty perfect game until the wheels came off on their hunting gameplan

It’s amazing how little siakam touches the ball. Give him the ball let him cook

Nembhard initiated that contact. What us a defender to do except stand still?

Of course he initiated it he was driving to the basket… Brunson was trying to stay in front but he was too late getting In position. That’s a block.

We know who the league wants after that. Even Reggie and SVG disagree

Reggie and SVG say no.

He was always in position, in front. He didn't slide from the side too late. It's called maintain legal guarding position
