Malice at the palace is up there but I think Reggie not dunking it the year before was the killer 

That was such a bad move by Reggie, and Reggie is to this day my favorite NBA player. Hate, hate, hate Tayshaun Prince.

WAIT just saw that the always Brilliant Knicks just fired Thibodeau!! 

LOL at the Knicks, what a joke of a franchise 

... do wonder though, if they have a line on getting Malone, it would be a good move

Never interrupt your enemy when they are making a mistake

Yeah. Rule of thumb if you can dunk it. Dunk it.  But yes I hate tayshaun prince

This Pacers team is really fun to watch. So glad I got out to see them a few times this season. OKC will be tough but I said the same about the Knicks and Cavs.

Thibs fired in NY. Hoping Hurley gets it and maybe new staff wants a shot at Mullins.

Both parts? Because even if we had no shot at Mullins it would be nice to see Hurley leave.

Really fun Pacers article. Strictly gushy, but it’s incredibly fun to be rooting for a team that deserves being gushed over.

I don't see the Knicks taking a chance on a college coach. Their window is right now to get to the Finals so they'll probably go for a proven commodity like Malone or someone like that.

Have you considered it’s James Dolan?

Anybody looking for some 1st rate Pacers  X’s & O’s geekery before tonight needs to check out the great Caitlin Cooper with Zach Lowe previewing the series yesterday. Starts at about 29:00. Lowe is a really good basketball guy, I’m a fan, but Caitlin makes pretty much everyone sound like a basketball Neanderthal.

Today, for the first time that I've worked for this company (8 years), I'm wearing a Pacers hat, not my trusty  IU one. Guys in the shop are a little thrown off lol

[HoosierHoopster 8,496]

Let's Go Pacers!

[Brass Cannon 25,487]

Refs certainly don’t want to run the risk of the players deciding this game 

Blatant travels/fouls ignored on OKC

Unwatchable product.

Been a huge Pacers fan since the ABA days but this Thunder defense is amazingly good. Pacers lucky to be only down 12.

Thunders are definitely the better team.  I just can't stand to watch NBA ball right now.....they could literally call a foul every possession.
