Hibbert will get fined, and A LOT. He also said something about "homos" so he just created an unnecessary stupid distraction. Do you still think this year's playoffs Hibbert = last year's playoffs Hibbert? Do you take him over Bosh? LOL. Do you take West (playing with 103 fever) over Battier/Haslem?
Ouch, owned as ****. But as a Pacer fan, it makes sense to pick Pacers in 6 because even this guy knows, in the back of his mind, the Pacers have no shot in hell at winning game 7 in Miami. Come on.
Sure, it's a poll and I thought there was a 51% chance they'd win this series and that a game 7 road win would be the harder way to go. But I have never guaranteed or even predicted any one game until tonight's. I have said, repeatedly, that the series was a toss-up, while the conversation in this thread often ridiculously veered off into discussing the Heat-Spurs finals matchup that y'all thought was a shoo-in.
But it is a shoo in. The Pacers never had a chance to win this series. It's just like when the Rockets played the Lakers a few years ago. Yeah, it went 7, but everyone knew they had no chance and it's the same thing here. It's just hard for you not to live in the moment. I understand.
Very entertaining game. Kinda perplexed at the offensive foul on LeBron, should have been a no-call. No different than most of LeBron's drives. Doesn't really matter though, Heat were still going to lose at that point. I think the Heat will probably win game 7, but if they play as bad as they did tonight, who knows.
But you do realize that you over value the pacers because you're a homer, right? Like, you give the Pacers credit for shutting down Bosh and Wade, when in reality that's not what is happening out there.

Hibbert seems a little bit too excited in the post game and cocky. Did the Pacers already win the series?
I think it's incredible that the Pacers are playing so well in these playoffs. I love to watch a good defensive team. Remember guys, the Pacers were a 49 win team this year. They are stepping up big time.
From reading some of the other posts, the Pacers aren't really that good and they pushed the Heat to 7 games on sheer dumb luck.
I mean... I guess the context of this could fit here in this series???? <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/FVca1DOskEw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Why don't you look at the stats for the home team in a game 7. Then look at the stats when that team is the overwhelming favorite heading into the series. Caling it a "coin flip" is a joke. It barely ever happens.
this phrase is through around quite a bit, but they are better team than their record. they started the season expecting Granger to play and their first 20ish games were rough trying to adjust to his absence. I remember hearing one of these NBA analyst say for their first 20ish games they actually had a losing record, but ended up playing much better after that especially after the all star break.
Give them some ****ing credit, for real. :grin: Thanks Phil! And you tilis for posting this. Give Indiana some ****ing credit, for real.
Mr. Stern, if you're going to rig a game, please choose this game 7. I don't want to see a Pacers-Spurs finals
