Brunson is the worst flipper in the league. It’s the main reason he js so hard to guard. Dude just flops constantly

Dante DiVencenzo is a freaking awesome player to watch.

Damn I wish the Hoosiers had that kind of player. A stone cold winner.

He would also be freaking awesome to watch take a haymaker to the pie hole as he's talking trash while backing up.

But maybe that's just me.

Maybe I'm missing something,  but I don’t understand the arrogance and smugness from Knicks players and fans. The league and media has tried to prop them up as some historical, great franchise , when in fact , they've only won 2 championships in their history.  And the last one was over a half a century ago. After being in NYC  not long ago I realized one thing, the city and NBA are not what they once were. 

I have no dog in this fight, but it feels like there's not much difference in watching the NBA and WWE. Both seem overly scripted, and hard to watch.

Almost wish this series was best of 9 so the Pacers could embarrass the Knicks at home one more time.

Now can they flip the script and win in NY? Man I can’t say I’m optimistic the way the series has been playing out, but very nice balanced, dominant game from the P’s tn. I lost track of how many guys played, really nice balance

This is where the Pacers have to prove they can be killers and the Knicks have to prove they can gut it out.

We have the legs. We have the bench. We have the pace.

They have a tired Jalen Brunson and one random player that gets hot every game. 

1 day rest before battle.

A win tomorrow means an epic weekend in Indy next weekend. Saturday game 3, Sunday Indy 500, Monday game 4. 

[Hovadipo]

So far, this is THOROUGH. 

[TheWatShot]

Always impressed with how NBA refs can see a travel when they really want to.

Tough performance today.  Robbed in game 1

[Brass Cannon]

I don’t think I have ever seen a team dominate like this in a game 7 when their first playoff win was a few weeks ago. 

[HoosierHoopster]

Haliburton is a star. What a great showing and on the road in hostile NY, seriously outstanding showing and it starts with Carlisle and then is run by Haliburton.

Pacers won’t beat the C’s (but damn I’d love it if they did), but they’re still young and have a chance to develop into a contender. Great to see

I believe they set a game 7 1st quarter scoring record. They were on fire. NBA leading offense in full effect

Of course they were on fire, I took the under.
