Haha, McConnell looks so afraid when he has to take an open corner three. It goes in! Nervy looking shot. Rimmed in.

The Pacers are getting a ton of open looks, just not knocking them down well

What’s the story with Benedict Mathurin? I thought he was going to be a major piece for them and he’s not even playing..

The contrast between these jersey colors is amazing. I forgot how awesome it looked back in 2013 too (feels like ages ago lol)

It'll be nice when the Pacers are in white/yellow and the Knicks are blue/orange later in series too

Nice defense by McConnell on Brunson. His defense & physicality holding up well against Brunon's muscular drives.

I like this Pacers team. They run and move the ball like crazy. Too bad for them that Haliburton looks like he’s only playing at 60%

Btw. Mitchell Robinson looks like he only at about 5%..

New York is the huge favorite if you ask the media, but I think the Pacers have a decent shot of knocking them off. The Knicks are favorites, but it’s not as clear cut as the media would have you believe. I think a lot of that is the New York hype machine.

My God, Brunson. I can’t stand your flopping/foul-baiting.

Haliburton is beautiful to watch.

He reminds me of Jason Kidd. Great passing, creativity, but not ball dominant like most PGs.

Gobert out for Game 2 due to the birth of his son.

Big blow for Minny.

The Knicks aren't good defensively. The problem with Philly is that Tobias Harris blows and Embiid and Maxey were their only threats. The Pacers and Celtics have shooters all over the floor, so it'll be tougher for them.
