NBA playoffs— anyone else watching?

What I wouldn’t give (nothing of course, no one ever does when they say that) to see the Knicks beat the Pacers, now more so because of that spotlight w hore McAfee, not that it’d have any effect on him. I think OKC crushes either of them, so if the Pacers make it I can wait for my pettiness to be assuaged.

I am mostly rooting for the Pacers because their fans are true bball fans. But I agree— there is no chance either or the East teams can beat OKC. I actually think OKC might sweep the Finals.

Pacers blow out the Knicks in game 6 and are NBA East Champs. Final courtesy of @ExiledInIllinois is the battle of the hicks in the sticks OKC vs Indiana

Unfortunately they don’t go hand in hand, but I’ll be glad for Johnny Cougar should the Pacers prevail.

Pacers really locked it up in the 3rd quarter..... You know things are going good when Thomas Bryant is hitting 3 three pointers in a quarter.

 

Love the "battle of the hicks in the sticks"😂

This Indiana team is a team of destiny.

These Pacers are special. Even if they don't win the series, this would still be a heck of a playoff run. These comebacks are insane. Never seen anything like this.

I can’t believe these comebacks. Just so clutch.  Really loving this Indiana team.

 

conversely, this OKC team drives me nuts. Lot of reaching that they get away with. And lots of flopping.

Forgot to set the DVR for tonight, so I didn’t see it, but read that Carlisle subbed out all five on the floor when they were down 15 in the 4th and went on a 15-4 run. Pacers spread it all around well, but that move is all the more impressive considering the foe and the moment.

Nope......this team just has the "comeback" gene.......down double digits in the 4th quarter, and they're thinking we've got 'em right where we want 'em!!

Haliburton is earning himself a spot as one of the all-time great clutch shooters in NBA history with this playoff run

As a Knicks fan, I wouldnt mind liking Haliuburton but that choke thing he did was over the line. I hate the fact that the Knicks have such a terrible home court, despite how much the organision thinks they dont becuase a lot of celebs go to games.

As a Knicks fan I could see how you would be pissed about that, but I took it as him clearly paying homage to Reggie Miller and the history of the Knicks-Pacers rivalry so I thought it was kinda cool and I think the modern sports era is missing stuff like this.  With that said it almost blew up in his face if they would have lost in OT

Check this out re Halliburton:

 

“This season he has hit an astounding 13-for-15 game-tying or game-winning shots in the final two minutes of the fourth quarter or overtime -- the best field goal percentage in a single season since play-by-play was first tracked in 1996-97, per ESPN Research.”

Great decision by Carlisle not to take a timeout at the end.....they knew who the ball was going to, why give the Thunder a chance at setting up their D.
