Refs called a tight game all night. The officiating is becoming a little inconsistent between games but I thought pretty consistent throughout this one. Refs clearly weren't going to deal with any shenanigans on inbounds plays.
I thought Indiana played the better game. Knicks just know how to win.

I'm guessing if we lost you would say that was on Thibs too.
I’m picturing a comic book thought balloon above Hart’s head. It says “fuck it… we ain’t losin’”.
And inside his skull is a cuckoo clock.
Those refs kept putting us in 5 pt holes, too. Knicks took this game, nothing to do with the refs. NOVA KNICKS.

+1. Fair is fair and the refs bailed us out on this one.
46-3 benches and we still won. Unreal.

Awful screen call. Miracle we got that one.
Is Brunson the best player in the NBA right now?!
If we can get Deuce to show up, I can stop getting ulcers.
It should be a foul, they just rarely call it right. You can't do a moving pick, he was clearly moving and not set. Flop or not, it is a foul.

I think Nurse was right last series and it still applies—- doesn’t matter who does what on either side it’s coming down to last minutes.seconds.

Disagree. Right now, aside from Deuce we don't have any scorers on the bench. The rest are scrubs or non scoring bigs
Refuse to lose!!
Im in the minority. I think the call was right. I suspect the players had been in refs ear all night that turner places his outside leg very late all of the time.
There might have been some “makeup” call playing a role as well.
We’re very mentally tough right now. Hit clutch shots. Make the right plays. It’s crazy to think how tired these guys must be from minutes and still deliver in the clutch.
Yay for the good guys
Weird pivot. By a guy named Turner. I think it was actually a good call!
Its the right call - we would be livid if they called it on Hartenstein, but the call is confirmed on replay bc textbook wise its correct. It was called right away too like they were looking for it.
But Pacers shot themselves in the foot by fouling on the inbounds and getting a technical. Game didn't need to be over there.
Anyone remembering the miracle half court three to end the half?

It’s gonna be that kind of series tbh. We don’t have bench scorers unless we tap Burks. Brunson outscored Hali by 40 tonight and made up for it. This team will find a way.

Lol great call. Huge points
Lame call but I’ll take it. We stole that one and must play better.
But what Jordan Brunson does down the stretch of playoff games is otherworldly.
Pacers post game have taken the high road. Props to them. Much different then the Philly whiners.
This fucking team has made me a weekday drinker., 🤣
