[EC FINALS] (1) Boston Vs. (6) Indiana

Indiana shoots 52% from the field, scores 110 points and is blown out. Tatum scores 23 on 20 shots (1 for 7 from 3) but Brown with 40 (only 4-10 from 3).

Overall Indiana is
--outscored by 12 at the 3-point line
--5 missed FTs
--5 more TOs

126-110. It could have been worse.

I guess that guard play + role player thing is real in the NBA. Overall, the players not named Brown and Tatum were deadly when the ball found them.

 

Gonna be a swift series.

 

Does anyone else find Doris Burke's comments annoying? Her tone always sounds like she is sharing the wisdom of the ages. Doris, it is just basketball, not world philosophy.

 

pacers has the bostons just where the want them to be. all part of their strategy

 

Edit. Wrong thread.

 

So Celtics and Mavs both easy path to the Finals.

 

Nah, Mavs beating healthy teams at least.

Celtics path so far might have been the easiest path to a finals in some time.

 

Win or lose, proud of the fight!

Mavs are earning their way beating good and healthy teams. Celtics may have a top 3 easiest road in the least few decades. They are not only playing the worst teams, but without their best players. Jimmy Butler, Tyler Herro, Donovan Mitchell, Jarrett Allen, now Tyrese Haliburton.

 

Celtics will come back I'm sure of it. Got to give it to the Pacers for hanging in there though.

 

The Pacers remind me of a worse Celtics version to be fair lol and they play better in some games without Hali.

TJ McConnell is a pest on Offense and Defense.

 

This is not championship basketball from the Celtics.

Live and die by the 3

I just tuned in for the last 2 min, and is Indiana really about to blow another game?
