Pacers had to finish it there. Because you cant do Hali's celebration and then lose. He wouldn't have lived that down.
Pacers playoffs has been bonkers. What a fun team.

This was exactly like an NCAA tournament game.
I remember folks saying they don't like NCAA because teams are amateurs and give up big leads lol.

I'm so happy the Knicks lost. I'm also happy the refs didn't call "most" of the Brunson bs crap in the 4th and OT. That dude was hoping the refs would bail him out.

How did this happen? I decided to watch tv show 5 minutes left in the game because Knicks were up 15 or something and thought that was a wrap. Wtf is east. Totally unpredictable.

They've been doing this for months. They. Never. Stop.
Ever.
Man, these games have gotta be so exciting as a fan. I’m jealous, there is zero pressure in the Pacers they’re able to play so freely!

Brunson made so many poor decisions down the stretch. This one is gonna eat at him.

If the Knicks lose this series, Game 1 will live on in infamy.
Jokic 31/21/22
Luka & Oscar = 5 x 27/8/8
The Brodie = All-out energy

Imagine saying something like this though after you lose in such fashion. So embarrassing, have some shame lol.
I'm sorry I don't think nesmith will hit 7 3's in 2 minutes along with the luckiest 3 pt bounce since kawhi
it's obvious we are better and the pacers defense can't hold us

That's one of those things I see, and you know you're meant to win.
Like the David Tyree helmet catch. Sometimes in games I see something, and I'm like .... it's just meant to be. That Tyrese shot is one of them.

The difference would be that OKC can score as well but Indiana cannot defend.
