They’re one of the most dominant up and down teams I’ve ever seen. Wouldn’t be surprised if they came out in the next one and won by 40.

Indy has to survive that first 6 mins

Truer words were never spoken.

He's the extender. They'd use Brothers for the outright game 7 rig but they can't because they just used him here. If we're real lucky the NBA might be nice and actually let it be fair because Finals game 7s are so rare

Look at how young they are. And we have the same 15 guys under contract next season. Get used too it.

We failed to stop this Super Villain.

Na I think Pacers win this year and next year is when the OKC dynasty starts.

OKC will definitely have a huge advantage in game 7...but just the fact that Pacers have a chance to steal it is pretty big.

Pacers started slow, OKC good lead on 1st quarter.
Pacers heated up, Hali got better as game went on. TJ being TJ. Etc.
Lol.

Incredible.


His run during these playoffs made me wonder if the Raptors should've kept him.

Maybe, but I get why they moved on. That team most likely had a limit to how far it would've gone.


They could have gotten a much better return for him in a trade. The Pacers got him for a steal.

Feel like Raptors fans should still be mad at Masai for that deal

Yeah, they aren't all time greats. Great teams would have easily put away this Pacers team. I think their issue is that they are so damn young.

Maybe that’s who Kobe was referring to, “NBA is lucky that TJ wasn’t 6’6.”


He's a smart player who knows how to pick his spots.

We all knew this was going 7. Mark emptied the bench at the start of the 4th.

Why are the starters for the Pacers still in?
