Legends are made in nights like this. We're here for it

They say you can win a few games after your star player gets hurt, but long term it always catches up with you. But this isn't long term, it's just one game! LFG!

Indy can’t afford to have their role players trying to do it themselves

Pacers role players being absolute idiots.

Yeah you can tear your Achilles and miss next season as well.

And destroy your career. Not everyone comes back from that.

I'm an old and I know this isn't a perfect parallel but I'm reminded of the 2000 playoffs. Duncan suffered a knee injury right before the playoffs and San Antonio refused to let Duncan play because they valued his career over one post-season. Again I know this is one game for a title vs an entire post-season but in retrospect SA clearly made the right call.

Indy can still win
Hali's their best player but they're not overly reliant on anyone
I know it's hard to just go past what just happened but if they can stay in contact these coming minutes I believe they still can do it

It’s wild how playing with a calf injury always seems to lead to Achilles injuries

Back when i think Dame or Tatum tore theirs early in the playoffs, i was reading something that said because their ankles are so heavily taped now days, there is nowhere for the stress/strain to go so the Achilles ruptures.

Who wins the 2025 NBA Championship?
