Injury to Hali makes you think about Brunson possibly being out for an extended period, and who would fill in? If Kolek doesnt look like the answer (jury is still out) then the FO has to find someone. We need a McConnell type of backup.

An expert is saying Haliburton first injured his leg during his miracle shot against NY in game 1.

Good game so far. Pacers have to be one of the most resilient teams we've seen in a while.

Im wondering what Leon is thinking about all this? And what moves he's going to make in the offseason.

Pacers are showing that depth matters, and adjustments. We might be close to contending, but still a lot of work to be done.

Watching OKC’s offense with SGA pounding the rock reminds me of watching JB and Knicks.

SGA is the MVP and scoring champion. Does a better job of scoring in the flow of the offense.

Of course.
Point was that both teams have same basic offense where PG creates off a pick.
Difference as you said is they have the MVP.
Although, Pacers showing that an offense needs more than that.

TJ needs to have a better 4th than that 3rd.

Just wish that Brunson would create more for others off a pick, instead of calling his own number so much at times.

I dont have the numbers handy, but I read that there was a steep drop in P&Rs between JB and KAT by the second half of the season.

Im hoping a new coach will encourage Brunson to do a better job of picking his moments during the first 3 quarters. Clutch time Brunson is expected to have the ball.

With Hali out, its ova.

If I’m a Pacers fan, I’m pretty miserable right now.

Basically worst case scenario.

I’m petty.

They can all choke on it

Pacers hung around decently for a while - OKC turned it up and now Indy can't make a shot.

They had a heckuva run

"0"Bi Toppin so far

Helped get them to a Finals game 7. Obi proved his value to a contender. Happy he got the chance.

Pacers trying to come back the Mathurin gets a whistle everytime he drives to the basket offense
VDesai @ 6/22/2025 10:42 PM
Interesting that they called fouls on Nesmith in the Finals

I give the Pacers a lot of credit for grinding this one till the bitter end
