Pacers (0-0) at Celtics (0-0) Eastern Conference Finals Game 1 5/21/24

[Atzar]

Hell of a start.  Offense is singing.  Defense is good too, though Nesmith missed an easy one and Siakam probably should have hit one of the two turnarounds.

LOL I love seeing Big Papa Horford just vibing on the side!

This game has the Pacers feeling the pressure all over it. We're by far the best defense (and offense) they've seen in the playoffs thus far not even considering the injuries, and it's showing.

knock them out

Pacers get down big they struggle to get back. Let’s see if that happens

[A Future of Stevens]

The Celtics length has been suffocating them. They are used to playing a team with 3 starters 6'4 or under. Shoot the Knicks were using Hart at PF and he's like 6'5

[blink]

keep up the intensity on def!!!

12-0!!

Couldn’t ask for a better start

Great start, Love the defensive intensity.

I know Al's block was a good one, but that was stupid of Joe to use a challenge 35 seconds in.

[Big333223]

That's a good way to start a basketball game.

Looks like game 7 magic for the pacers not translating so far

If you mean by Pacers magic is players dropping like flies, not gonna happen. Not unless they are also into "heat culture"

[celticinorlando]

I’m letting Nesmith shoot as much as possible

Siakim always turns into the lane on that midrange post up
