You'll Need a Pace(r) Maker For Two Harts This Time | Official Pacers (#4) vs. Knicks (#3) Eastern Conference Finals Thread

He’s legitimately a great person. Bro is just himself. Social media and people in general are corny, broke losers.

U gotta be trolling

This was his worst game of the season arguably

And he STILL hit maybe the toughest shot of the night in the clutch

fukking retarded confirmation bias bullshyt

Get out your feelings. Knicks are up 2-1 if Brunson is benched 4th quarter of game 1. Best they looked all series is with him playing less

Terry Crews courtside in Indy is nasty celebrity row

Jeff Teague said this before game 3

Hali is a very skilled player, but he seems to lack that killer instinct to take over a game when the team needs them to. Even Jokic suffers from this on occasion, but he usually grabs the bull by the horns and assumes full responsibility. HaliBurton instead will stay in the passive role, will waste precious ball possession time on the shotclock and will just keep deferring to his other teammates until the game is lost. It's frustrating to watch as a neutral fan, I can’t imagine how actual pacers fans feel when they see him shrinking from duty and not seizing the opportunity. He would be so much more effective if he went for it, initiated plays and looked for their own shot more.

This is why his peers called him overrated, and the fans call him a front running clown.

So you’re saying the Knicks are a better team without Brunson

We don’t deserve nice things

Still think the Pacers handled that weird. Let the media cycle do its thing and sweep that shyt under the rug. Coulda just moved him up to the suite after the incident. Saw numerous cacs with “Free John Haliburton” shirts last night, which I found hilarious

No, but they are a better team clearly when the ball is moving, that is also antithetical to what Jalen Brunson has become. Instead of relying on switches to get favorable match ups, move the ball and if the ball happens to come back to Jalen, cool. If not, it's OK too. KAT has averaged over 20ppg before, Bridges was when he was on Brooklyn. The best version of the Knicks would be Jalen Brunson averaging 19-20 ppg with Mikel and OG picking up the difference. That would help with the offensive load so that he isn't doing it so much and that he'd also have energy on defense because the Pacers are targeting him as the weak link on the Knicks defense.

Both of Yall been emotional over Thibs and Brunson. “B-but we are in the ecf!” All season long Knicks have been pulling wins out their ass when they could actually be playing better.

It’s like Yall are okay with underachieving because the Knicks are deep in the playoffs.

It’s okay to want more as a fan brehs. It’s okay to criticize brehs. It’s weird energy.

What fukking more could you want that making the finals and/or winning the title

Y'all talk like its year five of underachieving

They had a damned good chance last year if not for health. And what a fukking surprise, they are 3 wins away this year

Stop assuming failure in the eyes of success

We're going to the Finals. But we could be so much better

Why can't Thibs coach the way I want him to coach

This is exactly what I’m talking about. Knicks looking at getting swept if Brunson didn’t pick up that foul. It’s okay to say your best player isn’t playing well and that the team looks better this series with him playing staggered minutes. It’s wide open this year. This is the year to make shyt happen so when you ain’t doing your job…yea you getting work from fans. Stop crying bro

KAT is either shooting a 30 footer or driving to the cup. If he gets it in the high post he’ll throw a wrap around to a cutter. He sometimes whips the ball around the floor recklessly. He was horrendous all game until he started making those same ill-advised shots which opened up his driving game.

For you to say this shyt when Brunson has been our rock all season. Clutch player of the year with an elite assist to turnover ratio is ridiculous.

Y’all constantly have recency and confirmation biases and constantly read too deep into every little thing

Your shtick is really annoying. I’ve said the team looks better playing through KAT since the fall. Cut it out.
