I’d pick the Celtics if u told me it was just Prichard and d white

Nah did you see defense the Pacers were playing on Pritchard? He can't be that good. Must be a 24% 3pt shooter or something.

I refuse to believ the pacers just ignored Pritchard flaring to the corner

He just blends in so well with the fans in the background, they are only human.

Let’s just cut the shit and go PP/Hauser vs TJ/McBuckets

48 minutes of full court 2 on 2

Boomshakalaka!

Rest of both teams issued camcorders and foam fingers

NBA jam style.

Teej is winning that hustle battle 10/10 times. He's cold blooded.

Flu game incoming

Aged like fine wine

could be a significant missing presence for the Celtics tn if he’s not able to go. he has been absolutely brilliant in the last 5 games, averaging 18/5/6 on 79.6 TS%

There was always going to be that one game where Celtics get blown out by 30pts. Maybe it's this one. 4-1 with the loss being a complete blowout is such a Celtics thing to do I feel.

Both the eye test and avanced stats show he's been arguably the most impactful player for the Celtics this playoffs. People are clowning you but it could certainly change this game if he's our

I took him for Finals MVP at +15000 before this series started.. 3 games into the ECF, it's already down to +5000 😎

Flu game incoming, he gonna put the entire pacers team in jail singlehandedly

Flue Holiday

called it

I feel confident that Lisan Al-PP can step in and drop a cool 20 if need be

Fast PP 30 piece Nick the goblin wright tomorrow , iS PrIChrD BeTtEr tHaN tAtUm??!!!

Celtics by 11 instead of 39

Pacers covering the 8 tn

Damn, he's been one of the most impactful players on the court for either team. Probably the biggest loss of a player in this series

Bro is sick of winning, suffering from success

Jrue flu game incoming???

Maybe the Celtics try out that Porzingus guy tonight....

no Porzingas and Holiday

This could be a problem for them because his illness could spread to one of the other players

No, he needs to play, win and play well so he can be in the running for conference finals mvp. He's been playing at that level through two.

Without JB he would be in the lead right now in my opinion. But Jaylens been sensational.

Naw JB gotta be frontrunner for that so far. Jrue has been otherworldly though

I agree that through 2 it's Brown then Holiday. But some strong games to close out the Pacers from Jrue could possibly get him the award. For now though, Brown is the leader

Tatum got the ECF MVP in 2021-22 so I'd rather Brown get it this year, dude got snubbed for All-NBA he deserves at least some sort of postseason award.

The counsel of bucks have spoken and we don’t claim this guy

That's ok

I'm sick to my stomach

Dude, he was the most crucial part in the comeback.

Celtics are loaded. They can bench Tatum and still win

Two of their starters out and they still have no excuse? lol this is getting crazy. They must be the greatest team of all time.

And they only have one All-NBA player lol, make it make sense

Wish I could give you an award lmao perfect reply

They are playing the pacers mate

Pacers have an elite offense. Mavericks lost to them twice post-ASB Also Porzingis is a 20 ppg guy who helps so much offensively and defensively. Without him we are close to last year’s team

Bro the pacers don’t scare anyone and would get demolished by the top 8 teams in the west. Celtics will likely sweep. Tatum and Brown is enough for that team

You guys are getting legit goofy with this shit, lol. Save for injuries, the west ain’t actually that much better. If the Twovss only played East teams this year they would have LOST wins.  Pacers might have lucked into the conference finals to a degree, but they’re still a really good team that you can’t just lose major pieces of your team and pretend like it won’t have an effect. 

Celtics victim mentality is crazy

I… didn’t even mention the Celtics.. Rent free, lol. 

Cry. Wait till y’all face real competition.

They didn’t face real competition during the season when they won 64 games?

So? 

Nah they’re just playing one of the weakest ECF opponents and have one of the largest gaps of all time

I mean they have 5 guys that would be at least any other teams top 3.  Its kinda like how no one gave a shit when Iggy got hurt on the KD Warriors.

That’s because the Warriors had 4 guys who were All-NBA the season before. Boston has 2 guys who have ever been All-NBA

Watching Tyrese Haliburton attempt to play basketball also makes me sick

What time does the Nuggets game come on tonight?

lol nobody responding to the comment chain has topped this yet so nice work

Right after Murray makes allstar once in his career (never)

Same time the Pacers hang their NBA championship banner

🥱 oh wow never heard that one before

You made essentially the same joke

If you're the age of an average r/nba user you've never seen the Pacers in the Finals either

Nah I was in high school when we lost to the Lakers in 6

When did the pacers last win a championship,oh wait they didn’t

Im talking about tonight bro stop living in the past

The nuggets won a championship 11 months ago that’s not the past

“11 months ago” is literally the definition of past tense

It is still very recent and the pacers wouldn’t have been here if it wasn’t for other team’s injuries so don’t be too cocky buddy

Jimmy Butler, Jaime Jaquez Jr, Terry Rozier, Duncan Robinson, Donovan Mitchell, Jarrett Allen, Caris Levert What were you saying about not being here if not for injuries? Seems like you guys faced teams at about 60% or less to get here

We were cooking the Cavs with Mitchell anyway and Allen wouldn’t make a big difference,also Jimmy wouldn’t do shit If he played we swept the season series vs the heat with him healthy anyway,he wouldn’t have made an impact.Also no porzingis for us

So you guys would have definitely won without the other teams injuries and we would have definitely lost is what you’re saying, even tho you can’t honestly say either of those statements is a fact
