Besides wanting a 7 game bloodbath for the Pacers-Knicks, who do we want in the ECF w a healthy Zinger (assuming of course we close the Cavs out quickly as we should)?

man if indy somehow beats NY we will absolutely rip through their ball pressure defense. all you gotta do is pass and they leave people wide open all game

Implies refs are being paid to make bad calls I assume?

Unreal how Brunson is allowed to use that chicken wing with impunity while you can't even breathe on him. He initiates most of the contact and whistle always goes his way.

That foul call they just gave to Aaron neesmith while Guarding J Brunson may have been one of the most egregious foul calls in the playoffs.

Any conspiracy theories that Brunson gets calls will use this one As major proof..

If you haven't seen it watch for yourself.. Brunson totally plows his shoulder into Nesmith off the ball and somehow they call that against Aaron..

Wow great challenge to overturn that horrible horrible call.. Someone needs to talk to these refs anyhow.

Hope we don't get Scott Foster or Tones (Brothers) back officiating any of our games in the playoffs.

Brunson going for 50-60

Siakam is so bad. Pity the next team to give him that big deal this summer. Toronto made the right move

Didn't even realize the knicks started 4 guards with the 2 biggest at 6 foot 4..

Taking small ball to a whole new level..

Nesmith is still awful. Haliburton too

playa-hater · Post #98 » by **playa-hater** » Wed May 15, 2024 1:12 am

All I want is a close game every game.. Indiana's defense is totally broken right now.

zoyathedestroya · Post #99 » by **zoyathedestroya** » Wed May 15, 2024 1:12 am

Nesmith has energy but runs around like a headless chicken. Just not a fan of low IQ guys. They actively hurt you when they try to do too much.

I think I could score 30 points with Nembhard guarding me. All-NBA “I hope they miss” defense
