Sorry pacers fans

Refs are doing they can to stop the pacers

You can’t win 5 vs 8
Stop being so disrespectful.

Wait, Achilles, not calf? Was Durant's initial injury in 2019 also a calf before it became an Achilles?. Playing through injuries rarely seems to actually work out.

Nembhard needed that 3 in the worst way. He was getting good looks and missing, maybe this gives him some momentum.

Truth be told, the Pacers ball movement becomes even more dangerous when Hali is out because you don't know where that shot is coming from.

With OKC they have literally two guys shooting.

Heck of a shot by Nembhard to give us this half-time lead
"No wolf shall keep his secrets, no bird shall dance the skyline
And I am left with nothing but an oath that gleams like a sword
To bathe in the blood of man
Mankind..."

Respect this Indiana team, they have always been greater than just 1 player.

It will be tough, but they can still do it

Indy leading without Hali with Turner being garbage and Nembhard playing shaky until that 3.

Okie kids look tight.

Pacers still f***ing in this! Pascal/Nembhard/Mathurin going to have to have a monster second half.

Don't let Hali's injury distract you from the fact that OKC is choking in game 7 at home

The Hali injury puts that much more pressure on OKC. They're playing so tight.

Pacers have no expectations. They can play more freely and it's showing.

Oh and that Dort flop was despicable.
