You just gotta respect it. Unflappable. Well coached. No panic. No stupidity. They just play right, even though they don’t have the most talent on paper.

It's Tyrese Time sponsered by Tissot.

My Pacers to sweep bet is still alive.

I definitely hear that but they are backing it up every bit and doing it with execution. Hence its hard not to respect it. Have never seen anything like it

Airball by Nembhard? Nah, perfect pass to Siakim for a layup.

I've moved past that. They've earned their wins.

This is the strangest team ever. Inexplicably clutch. OKC had them in a big brother chokehold until Indy turns into werewolves once the clock strikes late 4th quarter.

Me too. I respect it at this point. They're the biggest underdogs since Detroit vs LA. I want to see Indy do it.

Yeah, I can get behind this now. It's been a wild playoff for them!

What are the odds on that? Like 200 to 1?

Pacers winning this like I said

The turnover discrepancy is the only thing that kept IND from possibly blowing OKC out.

Honestly, more than a little legendary at this point. They've had one of these impossible comebacks in every series.

Okc probably shouldn’t be trying to replicate the Bucks offensive scheme if they want to win this

I turned it off when the Thunder went on that run in the 4th quarter.

So then just now I check the score to see how much the Thunder won by and I see 111-110 Pacers lol.

I should have known better with the Pacers, but I didn't think they would pull off one of their crazy comebacks against the Thunder.

For all the luck Indy is riding, OKC also looked utterly gassed at the end there. Seems like they cooked themselves given the intensity they played with on D for the first 3 quarters.

I wonder if they might try pick their spots a bit better about when to ramp things up and down. Or is Indy a fitter team?

Have you ever stomped on a bug multiple times and every time you keep lifting your foot up, the bug is somehow still alive and running around.

That is the Pacers....lol.

Pacers greatest late game team I can remember. Never out of it

Rooting for OKC over Indiana is INSANE to me. They are garbage to watch on both ends, none of their players play an exciting style. What's there to like about watching OKC?

Also, Lu Dort being allowed to get away with the crap he does is embarrassing for the NBA. He routinely gets away with BS that wouldn't fly in football let alone basketball. It's like if we just sent Thanasis out there as a starter for multiple seasons in a row and just had him run into offensive players, push them over, tackle guys til he fouled out...and then the refs just decided to collectively not call him for fouls anymore like they got tired of it.
