    Take what you can get at this point, he's probably the best American plater right now.

    They’re gonna win/advance but why are the Celtics always playing with their meat?

    Mavs look like the best team.

    Boston out here struggling with an injured 6th seed…

    smh…Mavs in 6 at the most

    Mavs: 3 Finals appearances and 2 titles the past 18 years

    Rockets: no Finals appearances in almost 30 years

    this can’t be life

    Keep playing with your meat and you get Nembhard

    What the hell did the Pacers organizaton do to the NBA league office? Celtics have been getting the favorable whistle every single game. Jalen Brown just almost drove TJ Mcconells nosebone into his brain and they didn't even call a flagrant.

    Nembhard is going to be a star. I’d trade Jalen Green straight up for him.

    Nobody wants to win this game. It's this or the Astros though.

    Pacers just aren't smart enough and weren't coached well enough to win any of these close games. Give them credit for playing well enough for 46 mins but the last 2 mins show they don't belong here. How do you not score in the final 3 1/2 mins like that?

    Choking isn't a strong enough word.

    The Pacers:

    • Had a 97.4% chance to win Game 1, with 10 seconds left in regulation.

    • Had an 18-point lead midway through the 3rd quarter of game 3, with a 95.3% chance to win the game.

    • Had a 90% chance to win game 4, with under 6 minutes left.

    • Shot 53% from the floor in Game 1, 52% in Game 2, 50.5% in Game 3 and 46% in Game 4. Lost all of them

    Conferences should be mixed. Celtics advancing so easily is not fair. You hardly ever see this many mistakes in western conference playoffs.

    It's so frustrating to root for the underdogs. The Wolves and the Pacers both have the propensity to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory :mad::(

    Celtics won’t win more than 1 or 2 games against Dallas. And I’m sad because f*** Dallas I don’t want them to win another title before Rockets do.

    UGHHHHH.

    Is Joe Mazzula really their head coach?

    Bird must feel twisted inside. The Pacers are his hometown team that he's coached and GM'd for yet he's won three chips for the Celtics. Who was he rooting for?

    Maybe it’s time to give Boston credit for making plays at the end of games to win them, even when they play poorly.
