They played an injured Knicks team and still struggled. There is no way they get past the Celtics.

Right, when NN plays players too much and loses, it's his fault, and he's Nick Thibs. When the actual Thibs does it, it's just unlucky. TWO has made so many false claims that now they are imploding on themselves and making no sense.

He had a very mild series vs a thin Knicks front court, happy to see him get back to the ecf though

Pacers have been very lucky with the Bucks and Knicks injuries, they gonna get destroyed by Boston lol

He's the absolute perfect complementary player next to Haliburton.

He controlled the series as a playmaker and dominates when they needed it. Take your tanker coloured glasses off and bask in the glow.

Not sure about perfect. I'm not sure they can win a ring with this team with no defense.

Pascal is a great sidekick to any superstar level player though.

Good on the Pacers. They fleeced our bottom 5 front office out of Siakam for basically nothing.

Lol the lucky defence again eh? Luck when we were lucky to get Kawhi, so weak.

Point is this board, said the Pacers wouldn't go anywhere with. Pascal, and they absolutely did.

Pascal absolutely plays awesome when he's motivated and have no pressure to perform. The Pacers are the clear absolute underdog against the Celtics, that's why I expect Siakam to play like an absolute superstar against Jaylen Brown. The Pacers will likely lose in 6 games but Pascal will be the best player in the series.

There goes that theory nobody called him a superstar on here.

That said, be proactive in your roster moves going forward.

Depends on how injured Hali is. I think he's the better player when healthy.

Pascal is the better rounded player though when motivated to play defense.

Happy for him. Boston is a monster. It’ll be interesting. Pulling for him and the Pacers
