NBA: *** 2024 NBA thread ***

These announcers…since Indy isn’t allowed national tv…are just realizing Tyrese scores his big shots late because if he gets the whole team rolling Indy’s offense is so good there aren’t any big shots late.

Cavs also fouled Tyrese twice after he got the board.

Both games were horrifically one sided officiating. Indy had the benefit of that one blocked shot bad call game one but otherwise massive help from refs.

Mitchell was just straight up wrestling and fighting down stretch and they let him.

The elbow to the head not being flagrant is mind boggling.

Careers can end over that foul on Indy’s putback bucket they didn’t call. Two possessions prior he bearhugged a pacer with no call. There will be a riot if they officiate Mitchell that way in game 3 or 4.
 
At some point the national media is going to figure out the Pacers are for real. They are relentless and never give up with their depth. And Tyrese is the alpha dog.
 
Basketball staff giving the football staff some hell for this series? lol

They were as good as anybody since All Star break and made ECF last year.

Rewatching the game winner and celebration…you can tell the Pacers are restrained GENTLE celebrating with Tyrese like “do not break this guy we need his magic!”.

They’re jumping around like crazy going nuts then when they get to him it’s like they just bring it down a few notches.

That was some of the most physical stuff I’ve seen in some time.

The crazy thing is it mostly was the “smaller” players.
