Cool story, "worst poster on here" bunch of jokes on here that aren't even pacer fans lol, got a Celtic fan that's still hurting


Why don't you bring up the post where I told you the pacers were gonna mop the Knicks and what you had to say about that.

You wanna be the forum troll and treat people like **** when things are going your way then you gonna eat your comeuppance like the rest of us.

Treat people how you wanna be treated. Something you weren't taught apparently.

But at least you have that mega rich super successful New York City business to get back to Monday morning :lol:


Again, we lost, sh*t happens, just like we sent you home, have your laugh worry about your Celtics, tatums recovery, if brown is back, KP being a v@gina, worry about Boston.

Correct. But tonight isn't about that. Tonight is about laughing at all the dumb knicks takes.

At least I had last year's championship to satiate me when the Celtics blew it.

You wouldn't believe how little it matters when your team loses when you already won the big one.

That said. Celtics will still be better than the Knicks no matter who they put on the floor next year.

One of these teams is about to win a championship for the first time. That is pretty cool.

Didn't the Thunder get to keep the Supersonics records, or did I completely misremember that? I remember that being a sore spot for some Sonics fans at one time.


Ahh you're right. 1979 as the Sonics.

I assume most of these commentators are gonna make their way to NBC. Maybe even Amazon. They both need to fill out their roster.

what is going to happen with the post game crew (Ernie, Jet, Charles, Shaq)? I thought they were going to espn or something?

The show is going to be done in the same studio, with the same crew, just produced FOR espn. So they managed to keep their team in Atlanta employed and home.

Which seemed like their ultimate goal. When they talked about moving on everyone was going on about getting massive paydays as free agents but Ernie refused to leave TNT. So they managed to use that to negotiate the same situation as McAfee.

Year one of Kat, and I think I have had enough.

Thanks to Thibs, but the team needs to explore new coaching options and viable trades for Kat.

This team needs to add a secondary play maker and add depth at center and wing.

Careful bud, this is how you end up with an often injured Embiid or something.

Congrats Pacers!

Excited to see you in the NBA Finals— i think you can give them some trouble both on offense (Haliburton is versatile enough as is the team to adjust to OKC’s defensive schemes) and defense (that scrappy, aggressive ball pressure should consistent though and you have lots of guys to throw at SGA and Williams).

I don’t understand your post. You’re insinuating the draft is rigged, but you also say Silver is upset about the rating of the finals like he couldn’t just rig that too if he has those capabilities


KyRo23 is right to demand of the conspiracy theorists intellectual coherence but sadly they can explain anything as fitting the NBA is fixed.


Star players implied it.
Shaq has
LeBron has
Numerous guys have given interviews saying this.

Most people believe it done to further the Goals of the League.

Keeping LA relevant
AD situation
LUKA A star is traded without auctioning him off to the highest bidder.

In both situations the League paid them back by the team lucking into the No 1 pick.

Dude believe it is legit but I believe there is only so much of it they fix. I believe the games are normally won by the team that played best.

She also does the NCAA tournament and NFL football on Sundays. She'll still be around for Turner sports. Maybe she will end up on Amazon like many others.
