I cannot stomach Tyrese Haliburton being the best player in this series.

Sadly, the difference in his game came down to Hart and OG bricks. I'm not about to blame the refs after the Knicks hit the line 38 times. Poor poor execution.

Pacers been outplaying us outside of game 1. And maybe it’s choking that game that got us playing inferior ball, but a good team gets over that and shows it was a fluke. This team ain’t built like that. Retool. Get a new coach. Get a real bench and hope for the best.

Trading KAT ain’t the answer. This is a sweep with two blowouts in IND without him.

The end of the 2nd qtr / start of the 3rd was the killer.

Going from up 1 to down 12. Inexcusable basketball

Shouldn’t have messed with the starting lineup and just rolled with the rotation that got us this far other than replacing Wright for Payne. We panicked and it backfired. Robinson ass. Deuce ass. Mikal ass until it’s time to pad his stats when the game is out of reach. That game 1 collapse recalled sent us into free fall but we shouldn’t have panicked yet we did.

He started the half with Mikal bringing it up for the EXPRESS purpose of just feeding Brunson so he could take a shot.

That led to a turnover.

Like Got Dam man, you're a fool.

I said it after the lost. Those kind of games make boogie men.

Also, the referees were good complementary players for the Pacers.


Turner was great for them defensively, changed our shots in the paint

We couldn't make fts, committed dumb fouls, and TOs... usual playoffs killers

But 1-3 down is a whole lot better than 0-3 down, it ain't over until...
