How is OKC allowed to hack people like this? This is gross

It’s the crunch that’s really going to miss hali, that’s going to be the entire 4th if they can hang without him. Could have been a nail-biter to end a good finals. I hope it still is, but that was killer.

Well I guess Tatum has a rehab buddy this summer now. He and Hali and both are Drew Hanlen guys and work out together anyway I'm pretty sure.

People have said that there's o k c team has one of the best defense in years.

How can you beat a team like that? Ball movement and unselfishness starts first..

How can a basketball purist not want indiana to win.. Win or lose you are looking at one of the best coached team in years.

Hali looked like JT on the floor. He knew right away.

What an awful injury in the final game. Hope Pacers come out on fire in the third.

Wait did Hali tore his Achilles.....????

Just watched it. It looked like Achilles to me

. They should tape the ankle and restrict the hyper extension to prevent these injuries.

Actually you can see the exact instant it got ruptured. Terrible sight.

Yeah sad they had such an effect on the postseason.

Yep looks that way.

So, OKC can foul all they want with ZERO calls?....SMH at this crooked league.

These injuries have really messed up these playoffs. Crazy

Fierce1 · Post #1879 » by **Fierce1** » Mon Jun 23, 2025 2:26 am

I'll take Mazzulla-Ball and the 2024 Championship over this overachieving Pacers team.

With Hali out the entire 2026 season, if it's an achilles injury, this Pacers team might not return to championship form because of the uncertainty of the roster.

The Pacers will most likely be an apron team next season.

So this could be the only Finals appearance for Indy in the foreseeable future.

Congratulations to OKC!
They're going to be huge favorites to win it again next season and they are stacked with talent, depth and Draft Picks. May be the start of a Dynasty...
