2024 NBA Season and Playoffs

[CelticSooner]

Does it feel weird watching and waiting while other teams play? I’m so used to the Celtics having to play 7 games that waiting for the next round feels strange. Is it just me?

It feels like old times.

Would be huge if this goes 7. Because then neither team has any rest until the ECF where it is an "every other day" schedule too. Some team will be gassed.

Brunson looks absolutely out of gas

[Neurotic Guy]

So many guys for the Knicks playing way above their level. So annoying

The anti-Brunson playing this half. Missing  everything.

[Who]

Brunson having a nightmare.

You can tell it is getting to him too. He needs this halftime break to calm himself down.

[celticinorlando]

Knicks go 7 and then have to get Boston on Tuesday….that’s gonna be a tough turnaround

[CelticSooner]

Don't trust either one of these teams in a Game 7.

[Who]

NY were ahead 46-44 with 6+min remaining.

Half ends with Indy ahead 61-51. 12pt turnaround.

[celticinorlando]

Nembhard just cost his team 4 points with terrible close out defense and a technical

[hpantazo]

Pacers finally open up a double digit lead with Brunson having a brutal half, and they manage to give up 3 points and a technical foul in the last few seconds of the half.

[Neurotic Guy]

Nesmith is a nice player to have.

[Who]

Nembhard looks terrified to shoot a 3. Avoiding it every time. Overpassing to avoid taking the shot himself. Overdriving to get a long two, midrange 2, or driving layup even if they are harder and more contested in order to avoid taking the 3.

Indy need another 3 point shooter. Neither McConnell and Nembhard are comfortable shooting 3s.

[celticinorlando]

Lead cut from 14 to 5 just like that.

Pacers are just so bad defensively

[Phantom255x]

Lead cut from 14 to 5 just like that.

Pacers are just so bad defensively

And back to back 3s. Up to 11 again

[Who]

Siakam 17pts 6reb 4ast
M Turner 15pts

Haliburton 11pts 8ast
Nembhard 9pts
