Guys come in and **** win the game for you, nightly.


Our bench was actually much better last year. Bench has been kinda sketchy most of the year, picked a great time to figure it out.

Refs kept OKC alive in the first half but they have been so bad they can't save them from themselves.

Pacers have dominated the 4th quarter all series. Its the only quarter theyve won in the series so far Iirc. Okc needs to flip that big to win this now

We're seeing on-the-job training. Real-time education is happening. OKC will be better for it.

Pacers have botched this last minute...missed free throws and awful offense.

I want to know what Indy is doing in the offseason for conditioning. They’re built different than every other team in the league.

Cason Wallace needs to sit.

OKC needs to get SGA the ball at the elbow.

Did no one see the NHL game last night? Panthers up 3-0 and lost. This game reminds me of that

You're allowed to give the Pacers credit. Their defensive strategy gad been great and they are playing extremely hard out there
