Mathurin started the back and forth shoving...but to eject him and only offsetting techs for the other players.

Pretty massive gift for Cavs both from Mathurin and the refs giving drastically more serious punishment to Pacers. Cavs better be absolute perfect choir boys the rest of the game or that's horrific.

Strus literally hit Tyrese just like that on a replay. Absolute clown show by the refs this series.

They generally can't stop shots from going in, you have to outshoot the refs when it's clear they have an agenda like they have in all four of these games.

For the series on the whole the Cavs are basically a free throw based team and the Pacers are a make actual baskets team.

Tyrese with a triple double like 1st quarter. 6, 4 and 3.

But hey, +5 for Cavs in free throw attempts already and that's the goal of the sport it seems.

The sun is going down on Mother’s Day 2025, thank ******* god. What have I missed so far? Looks like the Indy starters are outscoring Cav starters, which is very different than game 3.

Indy would be up by 30 if the refs weren't jerking themselves off for Cavs FTs. Cavs literally can't make a basket and Indy barely missing.

Cavs on pace for 56 fts despite looking like absolute garbage.

Do you think the NBA is rooting for the Cavs or rooting for games 6 and 7 being a thing?

Cavs shoved Tyrese in the back for the half court heave.
