Toppin had 17 points and closed out the 4th. Hit some big shots in our series too.

Why was he traded?
Same with Donte.

I think that is why Rose really let Tibs go. Seeing guys like that have success on other teams, we could have used that off the bench.
donte was for towns
thats different.
and replaced him with bridges and gave deuce more of a role.
we traded Obi for no reason and never replaced him to this day

dumb move all around

I really don't want the Pacers to win a chip but honestly...

That is a solid, true team oriented basketball team. Hali talks shyt but he has a vendetta because of Wally being the first person calling him overrated and a "fake allstar."

I have to give credit. I hate it but I have to give credit.

Secondly, listening to NY sports radio and hearing radio jockeys proudly stating they'd trade Brunson for Giannis just... Sigh.

I almost want that shyt to happen so I can completely abandon this burden of fandom. That or a KD trade would be depressing to another level for me. And I am not a fair weather fan so I could careless if one or both of those trades happen and the Knicks win a chip or a few. I'm good.

If the Pacers beat them... I don't want to hear shyt about how our team wasn't good enough...

Thibs ain’t the GM.

Donte was traded to get KAT.

Also, funny to hear people want Toppin when many were shytting on him when he was here.

I fell asleep with 3 minutes left. Thank god. :unimpressed:
I didn't watch most of the game (because I'm not interested).

I checked the score and saw that the Thunder were up with a few minutes left. So I decided to take a peak at the game, and then the typical Pacers BS happened.

I knew that Nembhard 3 against SGA was going in before he even shot the ball.

I knew the Hali shot was going in as soon as SGA missed and the Pacers got the rebound.

:dry:

They let him walk basically for salary relief - 2 seconds that have yet to transfer.

Hard to believe that you can't get more than that for a guy who is playing big rotational minutes for a Finals team.

OKC's coach out thought himself. Should have stayed big. Being -17 on rebounds is killer. Especially against the Pacers.

What could you possibly get he was just seen as an energy big and is an older prospect. You weren’t getting much more than two seconds, a first, or a swap for a marginal prospect.

And he’s only averaging 17 minutes per game in the playoffs. Him being in the Finals doesn’t matter.
