It only took 9 years but we finally got a game 7 in the Finals!!

[RaptorPride]

Yeah, he's been there for every Pacers home game this series lol.

He represents us Raptors fans watching this. Brown mans from Toronto live and breath basketball. Its in the brown Toronto blood.

Watch on YouTube

I forgot about that guy. I would like to hear his latest thoughts.

He was genuinely confused. I would be too if I was from a different city and saw us take over their home court.

The Nuggets had nothing left entering game 7 against the Thunder. The injuries and the heavy minutes finally caught up with them.

Pacers are in a much better position. Outside of Haliburton, who looked good despite a calf strain, everyone else is healthy and relatively fresh. There's going to be a lot more pressure on the Thunder as well. They're the no.1 seed at home and it's winner take all.

Jokic wants a bench. Jokic deserves a bench.

Yeah it really feels like the next game is going to be important for who wins the series

[JustBuzzin]

James Johnson has more pushes than shot attempts

[rickxdel]

Pacers really looking to make history.

I feel like the more we talk about odds/chances/stats/etc that are against the Pacers they'll just magically defy them and play better. We need nobody to believe in the Pacers and they'll probably win it.

Lol exactly, this team has defied odds time and time again

If I was an OKC fan I'd refrain from focusing on these stats

[ky_23]

basketball fans won. game 7 baby!

[kwajo]

Yeah it really feels like the next game is going to be important for who wins the series

I don't know, I think Game 8 is always the most important in these situations.

[Indomitable]

Okc is so goddamn overrated. The way Perkins talks about them like it’s Michael Jordan’s Bulls is a joke.

Honestly, this team even being mentioned with all time teams is a joke.

Look at how young they are. And we have the same 15 guys under contract next season. Get used too it.

Boston said the same thing last season. I remember how your team after Heat lost. People were saying it was only the beginning.

[Appleshampoo]

SGA mic'd up "one game for all the marbles.... one game for all the marbles..." as if unsure he was saying the expression correctly.

[cjx]

Who still plays marbles and shoots them into the hole in the ground, Fam?

this is why I don't trust AI for work

Depends on which one you use. If you used one that is able to search online then you would get it right. Was probably the earliest data it was given when trained.

I just used google's built in AI for that search but I use a few different AI engines and they all still hallucinate or just plain lie

Me: cite where you got that
AI: Here is the link
Me: Where in that article do you see that info
AI: You're right, it is not in that article and I can't find a credible source for the data I provided

-_-

Yea still got a way to go

[MasterIchiro]

Guys win lose or draw we made it to a game 7.

Sunday is going to be for it all. This is what we want as fans. 2 small markets represented the NBA well during this Finals matchup.


May the best team win!

May my (TBD) favorite team win.

[Chuck Everett]

Lot of pressure on OKC role players. No matter what happens, the season is over on Sunday night. I feel confident Indiana will have more than two guys step up offensively.

[MrGoat]

Lol, James Johnson picking up a tech at this point

[OldSchoolNoBull]

The Pacers better hope that Scott Foster isn't reffing Game 7.

He will be I think Windy mentioned it a few days ago.

Ok but isn't the thing with Foster that he's the extender, that his motive is to make the series go longer? He can't extend it past Game 7, can he?

[Rainwater]

Honestly, this team even being mentioned with all time teams is a joke.

Yeah, they aren't all time greats. Great teams would have easily put away this Pacers team. I think their issue is that they are so damn young.

They can be an all time great quasi dynasty depending on how well Chet develops. They need a reliable third option that can rebound and defend the paint.

Chet has the tools to check all three boxes, but he's not strong and doesn't hold his position well at all currently. Do they try to develop him some more, or swing a trade for a third wheel star? They have the assets and teams still value Chets potential. Win or lose, they're in the driver's seat. It wouldn't surprise me if they turn into a modern version of the Tim Duncan/Pop Spurs.

I just think they should keep the team together. They are already in the finals and their avg age is only 24. Hell, they still can win the title. Most teams aren’t winning until their best players hit their late 20s. All they need is time.

James Johnson has more pushes than shot attempts

They don't pay him to shoot. They pay him to do Karate.

[JustBuzzin]

James Johnson got ejected in less than a minute of play.

Legendary!
