Almost Dirk-like shooting from Siakam and Turner. Interesting to see that RC is letting them face up in the same spots as Dirk. FT line instead of the ellbow. Spreads out the defense even more and doesn't allow help from the weak side.

PJ won't ever be the midrange face up guy Siakam is, but he does have that runner, and he CAN read the defense and make the correct pass (on time and on target, no less). I would love to see him screen and get the ball on the short roll the way Carlisle gets it to Siakam.

I've been watching IND a lot these playoffs. Siakam has been INSANE on those midrange isos. Way better than I'd have imagined. He's capable of making 7 more of those in this quarter, if Boston lets him get the ball in those spots.

I so hope the Pacers can win this. I didn't realize it until I started watching this game, but I really loathe Boston.

Boston is really missing KP.

Oof. Bad rotation from Halliburton. Let Horford shoot!

Sucks that Brown got hit in the head, but he got away with a hook to reach the paint.

This series (game) is like watching a pillow fight compared to the Mavs two series. Neither of these teams are very physical.

Not sure it will get overturned (probably won't) but that's a weak ass call that can't be made in this situation.

Yeah, especially the LAC series. And, the Mavs are about to be in the most physical series yet.

Pacers really can't afford to let this one slip away. Time to be great!
RE: IND @ BOS, Easter Conference Finals, Game 1 Game Thread - KillerLeft - 05-21-2024
Neither team knows how to win this one. Geez.

OMG, what an incredibly horrible turnover.
RE: IND @ BOS, Easter Conference Finals, Game 1 Game Thread - KillerLeft - 05-21-2024
Call the timeout and get the effing ball in!!!!!
RE: IND @ BOS, Easter Conference Finals, Game 1 Game Thread - KillerLeft - 05-21-2024
I can't believe it. I am in disbelief...of it.
RE: IND @ BOS, Easter Conference Finals, Game 1 Game Thread - KillerLeft - 05-21-2024
Two horrible turnovers turned a sure victory into an overtime game that Boston will probably use to decisively save their own butts.
