This is becoming uncomfortable for Okc and we have seen this time and time again. If they aren't careful, they can definitely lose this.

Run the offense and have faith in the next pass.

If Pacers come back and win this game...that would be the weirdest postseason run ever

I was thinking zero was a type of shoe design and was confused because I thought they all had different show deals

That was a clear foul on Nembhard. He didn't give SGA any space to land at all. If that's what you're referring to.

Also I don't think that was a foul on SGA after Mathurin traveled. And I'm rooting for Indy for some reason.

Everything else he's done is part of the game.

I think part of it is evening out luck. Went from the luckiest team in the league to being cursed in the biggest game of the year.


Exactly. Go back and revisit some of the Pacer wins during these playoffs. Some of the most crazed stuff ever.

SGA would have gotten that call on the other end. You have to get your hands up.

Yep, game 1 of ECF, Hali's shot went like 10 feet in the air off the rim.

The subtle slow zoom in on sad Reggie was kind of funny.

I think people routinely forget that JW is 24 and Chet is 22.

No timeouts left against this Pacers squad for 4 minutes. Hold on to your butts.

Crazy how Hali, Tatum, and Dame all went down with Achilles in the same postseason. You knew right away for each too. I’m going to be terrified every time Giannis plays through a calf thing. Idc what the data says about calf’s injuries not being related to tears, Dame and Hali both was enough for me.

McConnell benched in the 4th again is odd. Only 28 minutes.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.
