Well that was brutal. Pacers shooting was just too much for a pretty anemic thunder offense tonight. They'll put it together though. Thunder in 5.

Blame me. I was stupid enough to tune in the last 5 minutes. My teams typically blow it in the end, so I apologize.

Haliburton is remarkable.

Clean up the turnovers and the Pacers could roll.

LOL, they blew it in first half not taking advantage of all the turnovers.

Also kept SGA on bench too long starting 4th.

And bad use of timeouts.

Chet was a no show.

No excuses though, Indy cane in and stole the game. Rick is one of the best coaches in NBA too.

The Pacers doing this to so many teams in the postseason has been amazing. OKC got too comfortable and you could tell they figured they had this one in the bag up 8 late in the 4th.

I guess they hadn't watched any Pacers games since the playoffs started.

This postgame is pure trash.


We are being robbed.


Stupid fricking NBA.

We should be listening to Ernie, Kenny, Chuck, and Shaq discuss this.


Not losers and dumb bitches.

The Pacers didn't lead the entire game until less than a second left. I'm glad I'm not an OKC fan. That has to suck.

I really don’t see how anyone could feel good about OKC coming out of that game with how things went down the stretch.


SGA choked the last few possessions whereas haliburton just pulled an alpha move of being irrelevant all game and still not even thinking twice and draining the midrange 2 to win.

Just kinda feels like one of those series changing games that shakes up one team and elevates the other

Pacers may sweep

Having this game being called by Doris Burke is a travesty against mankind


Doris Burke is a fine analyst. She is not an NBA Finals caliber analyst. Neither is Richard Jefferson. They can call regular season games and it’s fine. Breen is a pro’s pro though.

What an amazing game. OKC was so beautiful in keeping Indy from going off until the inevitable happened. Indy is psychotic mentally. Their role players carried Haliburton to that moment tonight.

Agreed about Jefferson too. He’s milquetoast personified. Breen is solid as is tradition.

Larry Legend needs to school up Hali.

You don’t leave 0.3 left.

Let’s not get carried away. I just want the Pacers to win four games. Do not care how many OKC wins as long as they win <4. If my Pacers can get another in OKC……

Because we didn’t start watching the playoffs for the first time tonight and saw this happen against Denver a couple weeks ago

It’s basketball dude. Young team got tight and a little cold at the end of the game, and choked against an opponent on a historically great run of clutch wins. Still got to play at least three more.

Tough way to lose but I’m not worried. Chet and JDub disappeared offensively in the 4th or we would have cruised. They were missing so much easy stuff at the rim.

Oh well, on to the next one. Looks like it’s gonna be a long series.
