The Magikarp is flailing, but Fisherman Nesmith is here

[G R E Y]

Brunson shove so powerful it tilted the court causing defender to fall so hard.

[Tracymcgoaty]

This is groundbreaking.

Whoever guards SGA needs to do the same thing. Mexican flopoff.

[Palma Dutch]

Anyone that likes Brunson but would hate on Shai for being a foul merchant would be the biggest hypocrite lol. Doesn’t mean you can’t like the guy regardless, but the man is a flopper and shameful foul merchant lol.

yeah but shai gives me the ick
when brunson does it it's cute and smart

[ArksNetsSince99]

Literally no one did that. The whole point was that our style wears on teams, not that you won't be able to score.

All week it was about how great the Pacers defense has been since January 1st. How much better the defense has been because of Nembhard and Nesmith. Not necessarily you, but can pull receipts on those convos

Nope. Not in this thread at least. The whole point that people in this thread were making was that our defense is no longer awful like it was last year. It's somewhere in that 8-12 range. Definitely never said that we'd be stopping Brunson.

In fact, I have consistently said the opposite. That we don't care if Brunson goes for 40+ as long as we defend your 3-point shooters.

Bro it’s late , go to sleep , we tell you the score in the morning

Flopping is an art and should be more appreciated

RealGM tried to gaslight me into believing Aaron Nesmith and Andrew Nembhard would stop our guards.

Jalen Brunson - 18 points on 6/11 shooting

Mikal Bridges - 12 points on 6/12 shooting

Is 12 points on 12 shots a good thing?

[JustBuzzin]

Man those New Balance shoes are UGLY!

[doogie_hauser]

What a waste of a challenge by Thibs. They were never going to win that.

[scrabbarista]

There's that Knick defense.

[Upperclass]

This series is going to be hilarious because the league clearly doesnt want either team in the finals

[scrabbarista]

I know Harlan did not just say, "He's gyrating inside on Hart." I'm trying to eat, here, Kevin.

[Capn'O]

We need a Mitchervention

[holdenwait]

The way Turner jumped with joy finding that pass was adorable ngl

50% shooting. The guy doesn’t get to the FT line

first series to end in a double disqualification?

somehow Lakers get put into the Finals as a replacement?

Vince Lombardi: Fatigue makes cowards of us all.

You're about to see the Pacers do this to the Knicks.

[Handlez]

Hope the refs don't start their BS against Brunson.

They're allowed to be physical with him, so let him be physical back.

[sp6r=underrated]

As everyone expected, Pacers starters beating up the Knicks starters but the Knicks superior bench is carrying them to the lead.
