I don't understand not playing McConnell and sticking with Nemhard.

Carlisle did the same thing in Gm 1. Killed them then too.

Lol now the refs just changing their call.

Ha, just making up rules as they go. So  ridiculous.

Agree with SVG. McConnell is their best defender on Brunson. He has the quickness and strength to matchup with him. Brunson can muscle the taller Nembhard or Haliburton. McConnel causes Brunson more issues.

Pacers are just terrible on the glass. Standing around

DiVincenzo should have bled the clock.

I'm rooting for the Pacers, but man this is a frustrating ending for them. You can tell how young and unpoised they are. Making every mistake in the book - missing free throws, turnovers, not boxing out and giving up offensive boards, etc.

My estimation of Myles Turner as a player has plummeted.

None of the teams left in the east should not win more than a game on the Celtics

They're all very different teams, but is Cleveland really any different than either of these two teams? They all feel fairly similar in overall level to me, especially with New York's injuries.

Agreed. I thought Cleveland were the best of them if Jarrett Allen were healthy. The toughest obstacle remaining for BOS.

I actually thought ORL were better than NY and IND as well. Just how they matched up with BOS more than anything. Multiple big defensively able forwards.

This Knicks team is so impressive. With all of the injuries they have/had in this game to be able to pull this out is something. They just play so much harder and smarter than everyone else. And Brunson is just insane. I'd be lying if I said this team doesn't scare me a bit.

It’s up to Boston to end the Knicks hype train

Don’t scare me at all. Too small to handle the Celtics.

With the additional injury to Anunoby, if the Pacers could just string together enough good plays to win ONE game, they might end up winning by attrition & injuries
