Re: NBA Playoff Games 2025, Non-Celtics
As a basketball fan, I guess this would be considered a great game. But watching indiana move the ball and have so many players constantly in motion makes me even more sick and my bipolar is rising as we speak.
It's like watching beautiful offense and then being reminded of how horrible we played with our twenty point lead twice.
And the fact that I am posting this and joe still has a **** job.

2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe..

Those 2 Challenges really helped the Pacers.

I'm sorry, but this post triggers me. You have to be given confidence and an opportunity to be that good. And certainly Nesmith matured more with his chance. But we never gave him that chance why I always hate coach Ime..
And i'm also sorry to be so petty, but this is just one of the many things that I proclaimed and got so much heat for and yet I am proven right yet again.
You do have a point.
But Nesmith still wasn't anything special, back then.
Ya this is revisionist history, everyone here thought he was a bum and bust. Good on him to get a lot better but he showed nothing here

And not jacking up 3s . We really need a couple of players that can take it to the basket and isn’t just a 3 point shooter.

Re: NBA Playoff Games 2025, Non-Celtics
That was incredibly impressive by the Pacers. They had almost zero room for error to pull that off, and they involved everyone as needed.
Not only did the Pacers move without the ball, but they fed the hot hand. I looked up the play by play & Nesmith scored 20 in the final five minutes of regulation.
Hali's buzzer beater to tie the game was insane, the way it hung above the rim before falling in...

You have two if you get the first one right. They chose wisely. The players tried to get him to call it many times, he chose the correct ONE that saved the second one, which was also correct! Good stuff!

Re: NBA Playoff Games 2025, Non-Celtics
Nesmith at $11 million, that's great value
Nembhard also has turned out nicely.
Nembhard went 6 picks after the pick (#25) we traded to SAS for D White
Nesmith obviously, we traded for Brogdon
In another world, Nembhard, Nesmith, Tatum, Brown, KP could be our starting 5
(love D White and Nesmith got us Jrue Holiday in a round-about way, so no complaints. but we had another path Brad coulda taken)

You get a second challenge if you win your first one.
Did they use both in regulation?
I have to check the replay again, but I thought they got a little lucky when Siakam's foul overturned, on the final replay shown it looked like the ball wasn't clearly loose until after Siakam hit the guy's hand.
