Congrats Pacers! Gg Knicks.

I just hope Thibs gets fired.

I think Siakam should be ECF MVP

My Australian Soccer Team (Melbourne City) won the A League last night, so I can feel the euphoria the Pacers fans are feeling right now

So happy for all Indy fans. Definitely rooting for the Pacers in the finals

I hope all fans especially Knicks Stan's ease up on Brunson and KAT criticism for their average/disappointing game tonight.

They have gone above and beyond for the Knicks, played through injury and adversity and ultimately they didn't have the depth or support cast to help ease their burden (unlike Indy who have the depth to cover Hali when he laid an egg/played a bad game)

Although his foul baiting annoys me, I respect the hell out of Brunson and I feel really bad for him right now

He left millions on the table in his new contract to help try win a ring for The Knicks.

He is one of the genuinely good guys/authentic hooper in the NBA and would be hurting badly right now.

He cooked my Celtics esp at Boston which is not an easy thing to do.
Hope people remember those before sinking the boots into Brunson

I think Siakam should be ECF MVP

We couldn't stop that dude at all.

Series odds for the finals open at -750 OKC +525 Indiana.

Only 2017 and 2018 had a more lopsided opening line going back a long time.

Awww this is actually so cool.

Good series. I'd say good luck but I don't want the Pacers to win

Feels like Adam Silver is deliberately trolling by not being there to present the trophies to the Pacers

So *THOSE* are Knicks bench players. Huh.

Mandated by the league, doesn't mean Thibs needs to acknowledge them!

Probably just called out numbers he saw. Doesn't know their names lol

My buddy worked for a very famous director and he said for 3 years he was just "Tall Asian Kid" (he's 6'7")

I am about 99% sure Thibs is like that for his bench unit. If they aren't in their jersey he just goes with "White kid, bad haircut"

Meanwhile Tyler Kolek is like "I am the only white player on the roster man. Why you have to hate on my haircut?"

Jim Carrey knows how to hold court in front of an audience

Congrats to the Pacers for winning the East. In a league that has forever been about the star player, Carlisle has demonstrated that a true team approach can still beat anyone. I think the elements that make up the Pacers formula— a skilled floor general, shooters at every position, relentless attack with speed, relentless defensive effort full court and the physical and mental toughness to fight through all situations are hard to replicate. The Pacers’ collection of players only works because they have 2 stretch bigs, Turner and Siakem who allow them to play a way that most teams can’t. I think the lesson that other teams will learn from them is that having 2 stretch bigs is a lethal formula and the wave of the future.

If you understand basketball you should celebrate the way that they play because it is the way that the game should be played.

Get him! Easily the worst poster on this forum.

All those receipts and he thought he'd go unchecked?

Didn't let me off the hook and I ain't gonna let him off the hook.

Cool story, "worst poster on here" bunch of jokes on here that aren't even pacer fans lol, got a Celtic fan that's still hurting

Why don't you bring up the post where I told you the pacers were gonna mop the Knicks and what you had to say about that.

You wanna be the forum troll and treat people like **** when things are going your way then you gonna eat your comeuppance like the rest of us.

Treat people how you wanna be treated. Something you weren't taught apparently.

But at least you have that mega rich super successful New York City business to get back to Monday morning

[Nuntius]

We're in the Finals, everybody

I cannot believe this season!!!

Gz

Thanks, mate. I do want to thank you for being such a great sport these last two series, by the way. You've been kind of amazing and even defended us at points

[Memories]

Feels like Adam Silver is deliberately trolling by not being there to present the trophies to the Pacers

Dude is gonna look to leave the NBA after these Finals ratings.

That draft lottery needs a huge deep dive investigation. I’m not kidding.

[MoneyTalks41890]

I can’t bring myself to shell out a grand a ticket for upper level seats for the finals

I spent 900 dollars for the Raptors finals in 2019 and had 0 regrets about it. This doesnt come around often so enjoy it while you can...

Yeah I needed this validation of the financial side lol thanks

Got too excited, dropped several grand

[Marrs-Law]

let's go. glad for him. right call

[Hoopstar23]

oh wow! thats a surprise
