Yeah the Kawhi shot had no business going in either, after the initial clank off the front of the rim.

Brunson needs to get his head out of his ass. He almost threw the game away a few times here.

Since the ASB they are 20-9, 5.5 MOV. This comeback is nuts but their play has been CF level the last few months.

well because the bucks stink and cavs were hobbled. That second round series was a 7 game series with full health but that a story for another day. All these looks and everything being talked about, at days end is not going to make a difference my friend. Wed night you will see why 8-)


Be careful about underestimating us and chalking everything up to injuries. The Cavs made the same mistake :wink:


are you seeing how everything I'm saying is correct? your defense is awful that even when you have a guy have an out of body experience in the last 3 mins along with the flukiest shot since kawhi it's just a tied game

Yes, he would have looked real dumb if that didn't go in.

I wish that was a 3 just to end the game like that. Hopefully OT is just as much of a classic.

OG and Brunson have 5 fouls.

If the Pacers don't go hard at them they deserve to lose
