Sorry Indiana. Yall fought hard. The NBA gods are ruthless :mjcry:
Damn you really wanted the pacers to win tonight huh. :mjcry: :to:

As soon as Halliburton got injured it was over for them. His injury was too much to overcome. With him in the floor they might have won game 7.

I hope y'all stop suckin' Rick Carlisle díck.

Sub out Siakam in the 3rd for the likes of players like Ben Sheppard and Tony Bradley in a game 7 of a finals.

Those were some of the worst rotations I have seen in a finals.

He even brought Thomas Bryant in after damn near benching him for a couple games
imma be honest, i don't think much would've mattered without Haliburton being able to direct traffic. I don't even think Carlisle usually calls the plays when Hali's out there. Boys were looking lost and running motion sets with no purpose without their floor general. They got away with it in the 2nd qtr, but once halftime came, it became apparent that for all of their handoffs and shyt, they needed a facilitator to conduct that shyt.

Couple foul calls woulda been nice but the impact of Haliburton on both ends of the court was sorely missed

A little behind but they don't seem as happy as most 1st-time champs.

They celebrating like this is their 3rd or 4th ring. Not sure what to make of it. I think being such a young team, they don't have years and years of pain and frustration behind them. I'm thinking about how Dirk, Shaq, MJ etc, looked when they finally won.

Indiana just kept giving the ball away. Just...odd.
