Turner keeps tackling Celtics, he's gotta sit
 
Brown just picked up a 2nd foul mugging Pacers. These refs are calling ticky tack stuff
 
Al Horford doing damage. Coach Carlisle needs a timeout.
 
Jaylen Brown rampaging. Pacers down double digits.

Agreed. They have been very lucky the last two years with injuries. Especially compared to past years. An injury to Murray and they would have been lottery-bound. Even with Jokic.

They beat us without Murray. They would’ve made the playoffs with Reggie Jackson in his place. Murray isn’t all that good in the first place. Jokic don’t go to lotto.
 
So Boston beats

Heat without Butler
Cavs without Mitchell
Pacers without Halliburton
 
Isaiah Jackson wants to beat up Hauser, refs said no rough stuff, double techs
 
Coach Mazzulla has seen enough crap calls, throws his challenge flag
 
Blazer for a day Jrue Holiday double double, 85% shooting, + good D.
 
Easiest trip to Finals. Warriors didn’t even make the playoffs and they’d make the Finals playing Boston’s field.

Philly NY was a good series - put Philly in Bostons position they make the finals as well. East just fell apart this year.

It's only easy if they win the games. They suck if they don't. I'm thinking they don't mind winning the games no matter what.
 
Myles Turner 8 & 4, he didn't look happy. He played awesome in game 1.

Blazers should squeeze Turner into trade rumors. The Pacers NEED Jerami Grant . .
 
I'm wondering if we see a sweep in the east conference finals? Kind of seems like the Pacers missed their chance game 1.

In the West something tells me Minny comes back and takes game 2. The west series will go 6 or 7 games?

The Pacers are the 2019 Blazers. They had an easy path to the conference finals and now that magical run comes to an end.

Blazers did not have an easy path to the conference finals. Multiple injuries and Lillard was beat. Nursing both a calf injury plus an abdominal strain. Kanter was playing with one arm. 6 game series with OKC was a bloodbath. The Nuggets series was one of a kind.

5 games with OKC. The Nuggets series was certainly something else, especially that 4 OT game.

We pretty much dominated OKC.

The Nuggets were young. We got them before they had the experience and they were full strength. Two years later and we couldn't beat them without Murray.

If Lillard misses that shot they go back to Oklahoma and that series probably goes 7. Kanter was playing hurt. CJ was hurt. Lillard was hurt. No they did not dominate the Thunder and I would have hated that series to go 7 even if game 7 was at home.

I don't think the Bucks are done yet. Just a tough year with some bad luck with injuries. Watch out next year.

Idk, Giannis and Dame didn't seem to play as well together as most of us thought they would. They should probably play better together next year, but Lillard will be a year older, as will Brook Lopez and Middleton looks like he is on a downward trend too.

The unfortunate truth is stars that have spent time on one team going to another for a chance to win doesn't seen to work as well as you'd think when the star is in their downward 30's.

Giannis didn't seem to want to give up the ball, and often Dame was playing off ball. It was just flat out stupid.

Dame is one the best on-ball point guards in the league. Giannis should have been the one to change, not Dame.
