I always find it funny when fans of other teams come to a game thread just to talk about how they are bored.

My dude…no one is forcing you to watch. Go live your life.

Why is siakam still on the bench. They lead is eroding without him.

As soon as they are in the penalty pacers should just foul Robinson. They win this game with towns out there

The refs are telling the Knicks “we’ll give it to you.”

If you wanna call these touch fouls on the Pacers, that’s fine, but call it both ways. You can’t let Bridges and OG grab Haliburton, then call Nesmith for having a hand on Brunson.

This is a lot of their success. It sounds simple, but it works quite well.

Good foul there, Nemby.

Pacers took the heart of the Knicks with game 1 just like they did with Cavs. This series is over

Davis waited longer than I expected to start going off.

That call against Nesmith is inexcusable. No surprise it came from Marc Davis the criminal

To be fair, I do like Mathurin. I do think that he has real scoring potential and I do like his willingness to be physical. I think he can put it all together and that he can give us a different look at times of need.

But I can also see why someone wouldn't like his playing style.

I’m honestly shocked he’s been as irrelevant as he’s been in the playoffs.

I thought with his mentality, he’d step his game up. He’s had like one GOOD game and some okay games…and some bad games.

Sheppard has been more reliable.


Mathurin and the coaching staff havent seemed to be on the same page from day 1. I dont think he takes being a reserve well

That Mitchell FT looked like he should be on the Pacers today.
