Nesmith, Turner, Toppin, Mathurin, Bradley: these are all players with below average bbiq playing in the NBA final. Hard to win this way.

That Nembhard play is why Haliburton needs to get in the weight room. He can't do that stuff like that against physical D.

Honestly, Nembhard has been prime Chris Paul in this game. It's already over without him.

Hali's leg was obviously bothering him, he was getting stuck when he was out there

These days? Why did it change? Lol
Players take care of their bodies better so their prime tends to be closer to 30.
But it was really just a throw away post so I’ll stop litigating it lol

This Indiana first half is just pure comedy. Not sure what I'm watching here.

Nembhard seems like a nightmare to play against. A ton of the aura around this Pacers team is because of his energy.

Feels like Pacers should be down way more than this

Blaming Mathurin here makes no sense. Haliburton has no points. And 2 assists. Horrendous game from him.
