EC FINALS, Gm 4 – Celtics (3) @ Pacers (0) – 8:00PM, Mon, May 27, 2024

I still don't understand how we're struggling against these fools.

They have the second best offense of all time with Haliburton and league 5th or 6th without this year and they are playing really well and really hard.

Sometimes it's that the opposition are playing really well and credit to them.

We can lift our effort at times but really we've just got to stick with it. The talk about Pacers from the wider NBA community has been lazy and ignores the fact they have been legitimately good. Not a bad thing for Celtics to deal with and learn from.

They're like 32nd in defense. How do we not put up 80 per half?

[BigTrade92]

Fouls aside, I’d like to see Joe play the staters heavy minutes in the second half.

Close this out and they got 9 days to rest. Just get this over with.

[Fierce1]

I've never seen Tatum this aggressive in a while.

He's really asking for the ball.

[Geech]

ESPN announcers say Siakam and McConnell leading the game in "they thought they were fouled"s. Interesting stat.

[Fierce1]

Cs got to do better on the rebounds.

Losing the rebounding battle 20-25.

[165bows]

Which devil did they sell their souls to?

Siakam => Kawhi
Nembhard => CP3
McConnell => Nash

It's getting annoying.

Pritchard and Hauser and other parts of the bench have been getting cooked for most of this series it’s kind of annoying. Was used to those guys rolling.

[Fierce1]

Pacers shooting below 50%, but Cs only leading by 1 point.

Credit the Pacers, they're not giving up.

bob meyers needs to go work for the **** redskins and **** off. this guy is a terrible analyst for a guy who put together the most recent dynasty in the nba

He definitely needs to get some kind of training and rehearse.
He just doesn't have the natural personality that the other 4 people have.

True.

Every time I see Bob Meyers, it's like he's always irritated by something.

Taking bets - who on the Pacers is going to hit the buzzer-beating 3?

2 not a 3 BUT EVERY GODDANG QUARTER

This is so frustrating to watch. Maybe I'm just a spoiled UConn fan who's used to seeing the better team take care of business, but then again, they had superior coaching.

College is not the same. A few teams have the best players in school and some have top high school players not even playing they are so stacked, the NBA is full of players who were great in high school/college ON EVERY TEAM. I would bet nearly all NBA players could probably go back and dominate in college after just 2 NBA off-seasons. I'm not even thinking about guys who get regular minutes either.

[LarryBirdsFingr]

Welp, would be nice to get this handled tonight, but we have 3 more chances!

Batten down the hatches mates!

[Froob]

Stephen A complaining about the Tatum 3s. Is he watching the game lmao

[Parasite]

If Nembhard and McConnell are carving us up, imagine what Luka and Kyrie are going to do. It’s worrisome. This team just doesn’t play very hard for too much of the game.

[Parliament10]

Fire Alarm just went off in my building (120 units).
Hey, I'm by the exit door. I hope that I don't have to leave.

[zoyathedestroya]

Can JT get a new trainer? Enough with these fadeaways against smalls.

[VeryMuchWoke]

Terrible weak ass offense

[meatball sub]

awful start to the half

We would be able to take better advantage with KP but we have been scoring relatively well, but they have been UNBELIEVABLY all-time great with their shooting while we have been average or a little below from memory.

[VeryMuchWoke]

Tatum has been pathetic in this second half.

[tfmiii]

Good time out
