Pacers also on a BTB, also won in a blowout, had starters play even a couple fewer minutes than the Celtics did.

For them it's home/home, however.

[jordb2k7]

Please win the next 5 games in a row.

[Triple7]

The Colin Cowherd slander on JT is just crazy! Dude straight up hates JT and the celtics. Even saying his window to win is just this year. Tatum better start being consistently great. Better prioritize winning over stats. That game against the jazz was lit. Wish he can be that every game.

Windows does not apply to JT.

JT uses portals.

[Fierce1]

It's just plain stupid.

Window closes on a 25-year old?

Cowherd just wants attention.

Its funny because Shai who is "closing" Tatum's window as the young guard is only 4 months younger than Tatum

[Celts17Pride]

This is going to be a fun back to back against the Pacers. Hopefully the Celtics are up to the challenge

[Celts17Pride]

By the way, got a feeling the Jazz are going to be a much tougher opponent for the Sixers tonight. Jazz game last night was their first on the East Coast trip.

[KillahGhostface]

Nesmith probably out.

Dude is averaging 12 a game on 48% shooting from three lol. He lives in the corners, and Hali obviously finds him a lot.

[PierceFan4ever]

Let’s get this W. Last time we played them the whole pacers act like they won the championship lmao.

Hey cool KP is playing!

For the Pacers, Bruce Brown is out with a knee injury and both Nesmith and Nembhard are questionable.

That's a surprise. -- I figure Horford would play one, and Porzingis the other, on Back-to-Backs.
Like to see Queta and Kornet get some time in. -- I'm warming up to the 4-Big Man rotation.

Pacers play surprising well, with their Players.

Yeah it's kinda crazy that their offense is so good when their 2nd best player on paper is Myles Turner (?) or whatever. Haliburton is a point god and they play really well as a team.

There are several Pacers threads on the GB right now and their fans are insisting they've really picked up their defense in the last few weeks. I haven't watched them enough lately to know for myself but I guess we'll find out tonight.

Their defensive rating for the season is 119.9 but have a 120.2 defensive rating the last 10 games.
Who are they trying to fool

[BK_2020]

Pacers fans are the worst homers in the world tbh. Every player they have is a DPOY or an all-star or both. For years they try to say Myles Turner is Gobert but with a three point shot and now they insist Aaron Nembhard is a pointguard of the future and worth 3 first round picks in a trade.

Def something to that.

Plus it’s like we didn’t just watch last year’s Kings put up a record offense and then just become an afterthought.

[playa-hater]

If Nesmith is out, then our victory won't count.. just saying.. Oh and speaking of Nesmith, 6 games ago I mentioned Nesmith should be starting over overrated Hield. Since then, Nesmith has started, Pacers ran off an impressive 6 straight including 2 against the Bucks..all while Hield is Now "rumored" to be on the trade block.

**At least some NBA coaches are listening to me
