2025 EASTERN CONFERENCE FINALS: #3 New York Knicks vs #4 Indiana Pacers (IND leads 2-1)

[Nuntius]

Cry about it, pacers suck

Just as I said before the series begun when you thought that you were going to dogwalk us in 4 or 5, I would advise some caution there

You're going to get dog walked don't worry, front running joke roster, haliburton is trash, turner is trash, Carlisle is trash, Reggie sucks at commentating like he sucked at basketball, Indy 500 also sucks

Your initial prediction of Knicks in 4 or 5 was proven wrong, wasn't it?

Remind me, didn't we place a bet on it that you ended up losing?

[cgf]

You guys think Indi or NY have a better shot vs OKC (or minny) and why?

Either one will have the better coach, closer, mental toughness, and offense.

[cgf]

If you lose the first two games at home you’re a fraud. It is what it is. In the conference finals, teams that lost their first two home games have a 0-11 record.

so what happens when you lose games 3-4 at home after winning 1-2 on the road in the CF? does that make said team a fraud? asking for a friend...

Yes, they’re both frauds and neither team will win the championship.

Luckily everyone’s a fraud this year!

You said it was a sweep then it was 5 and now it’s 6

[SlimShady83]

Bet you all OKC wins this game

I know that we have all seen unbelievable things happen in this year's playoffs but if OKC manages to win a game in a series that they aren't even competing in, well, that would be a shocker

Get back to this at the end of the game , normally wouldn't be watching as I'd be at work, but week off and just chilling

Spicy, what was the bet?

Am I the only one who really doesn't like Tony Bradley's minutes for the Pacers? I think it was an overreaction to insert him to match Robinson. I'd refer Bryant just simply for continuity sake but really I like Toppin at 5' behind Turner and you can stagger his minutes to play next to Siakam or even insert Jarace Walker to play 3' and 4' off the bench too. Pacers can get back to their identity of playing 5 out offensively + pushing the pace.

Wow, what a well thought out post to add to the discussion. You're such an obnoxious .

Cry about it, pacers suck

Seriously, are you 12? No more interactions with you. Teams win teams lose, you'll always be a loser.

He admitted earlier that he’s over 40.

I’m a big Walker fan, but Bryant was an absolute disaster.

Isn't Bradley playing because Bryant hurt himself? I remember him holding his arm and never saw the floor since, the Bradley guy has absolutely no business playing in playoff games

Im accepting bribes to watch ( nyk fans ) or not watch ( ind fans) game 4.

Seems i have some magical juju that affects the outcome. Lol

Seriously, each game had 1 player that clearly went supernova for their team. Wonder which one will supersaiyan in game 4.

Yeah, I recognized that very early on, before the series even started. I'm surprised anyone even responds, I responded once after the series started and I was like oh yeah, I forgot. Now as soon as I see the name, I just skip over it and don't even read it. It's like arguing with a toddler, they're just gonna kick, scream and cry.

It's kinda wild, I didn't have to skip many posts after games 1 and 2. As soon as the Knicks won a game, magically is here again. Can't imagine why. Ultimately, I just treat them like the toddler they act like, when you put them to bed just ignore them and they'll cry themselves to sleep eventually.

Wouldn't it be great if this series goes 7 games and none of the home teams win a single game? Let's make history happen!!! lol

No, it would not

That would definitely be miserable for fans of either team

But for the rest of the world, FUN!!!

[xBulletproof]

Pacers just can't have periods where they play iso ball. That's what the Knicks got the Celtics to do.

The Nesmith injury changed the vibe, and the rotation to start the 4th. That didn't help either. Oh well, we saw all their changes, and will adjust. Same thing happened in the Cavs series. Cavs changes won them game 3, and the Pacers came equipped to attack it in game 4.

I wouldn't be so quick to assume you saw all of Thibs changes. This season has been very much one of showing as much as we are forced to, of what this team's full potential is. You've forced Thibs to use the double bigs more, replace Payne with Wright, and bring Shamet into the rotation, but there are other adjustments he can make to counter some of the adjustments Carlisle still has available to him.

This should continue to be a fascinating series since we're not soft & injured like the cavs were by game 4. Both teams are really well coached, have fantastic closers, and zero quit. You'll come back with a haymaker in the next round, but we might just slip it and catch you again.

I don't assume that's all of them, but you're not gonna stray too far from your strategy from the last game. You're gonna make a team beat that strategy before you move on to the next. Otherwise you risk outsmarting yourself.

So as is, it's on the Pacers to prove it won't work again first. Granted, not shooting 20% from 3 would be a good start.

so what happens when you lose games 3-4 at home after winning 1-2 on the road in the CF? does that make said team a fraud? asking for a friend...

Yes, they’re both frauds and neither team will win the championship.

Luckily everyone’s a fraud this year!

There will be no championship. Only an investigation.
