Giannis shouldn't be ahead of Tatum in MVP voting. And it's shocking Doc still keeps getting hired.

Usually after games like these, if this continues, the team that gets beat down either wins or makes the next game competitive. One thing about the pacers though, you can beat them, but they are going to keep coming like this every game. They are nagging little buggers!

Pacers are so scrappy. Glad we didn't get them in our bracket.

They were our most competitive series last year regardless of the 4-0 outcome.

Pacers were really good last season, I don’t want to make predictions on this go round. I simply feel like people thought they were supposed to be a cakewalk in the ECF and didn’t give them the credit they deserved. They were our toughest opponent by far! They keep coming in waves. Energy for days! We beat them through mental toughness and experience. Few different plays to end every game and who knows what happens.

Porter Jr. is a ballhog. Simple pass to wide open Trent Jr. for 3 could've cut the deficit to 9.

If the Celtics take care of business in the first two rounds, they'll see Indiana again :wink:

He has benefited from that 08 championship more than anyone.

I need the Nuggets to get swept. Get Jokic to Boston and fulfill his destiny to become the next Larry Bird but somehow better and without the back issues.

DEN-LAC is much more engaging than MIL-IND. Great game.

Westbrook will never learn. What a frustrating player.

Drag out fight, between Nuggets vs Clippers.

How do you miss two FTs in that situation Jok?

LOL Russ for the three!

Westbrook, to save the day???

Well, well, well . . .

Still only 2pt Game, with 23.4 secs

Another OT Game.
We're getting Parity, this year.

Jokic had Braun for a second in that far corner but maybe DJJ could've recovered.
