Siakam Spins & The Cs Grin: Official Pacers (#6) vs. Celtics (#1) Eastern Conference Finals Thread

Horford was getting hunted on defense

This is the perfect series to play Tillman

I don’t want to see Hauser on the court again unless it’s garbage time

Joey Mazz ain’t playing Brissett, he don’t space the floor

I wonder of Mazzulla realizes that since Hauser is playing horrible, he doesn't space the floor either

I believe Tillman's father passed away this week. Hopefully he'll be able to play in Game 2

Their whole playoff run is easy as hell. No Butler, no Giannis, no Embiid, no Brunson. Even the Cavs were hurt. A seasoned team that decimated the Conference should be sweeping to the finals. They won 64 games, 14 games ahead of 2nd place. 11.4 point differential for the season, the 5th highest in league history. Celtics and Thunder only teams in top 5 for offense and defense rating.

Looks like Celtics are 1st in offensive rating and 3rd in defensive rating. Pacers 2nd in offense, bottom 5 for defense.
For playoffs Pacers are 1st, Celtics 2nd for offense. Celtics also 3rd for defense.

They should be well rested for whoever comes out of the gauntlet that is the West.

They deserve this path, They’re 8-3 vs Embiid, Giannis and Jimmy in the playoffs, Beat Brunson 4-5 times this season and Brunson was hurt for about 2 quarters, not their fault they playing the easiest teams as a #1 seed usually does. Leave it to the Coli for the most outrageous casual takes.

Take the L and Jeep it moving. 1-0


“Bad Game” Celtics +20 with Tatum on the floor and -15 when he sat on the bench

you watching the box score or the game? He almost lost yall the game multiple times.

The game was close because of him to begin with. Game is FOUR quarters. +20 with him on the floor and minus 15 with him on the bench with ELITE defense, 10 points in OT, everyone had their bone headed plays. To try to come in and say 36/12/4/3 is a bad game is laughable.


Jayson Tatum is about to catch more slander for 36/12/4/3 and 10 in OT than Anthony Edward’s got for shooting 6/24 in game 7

Just saw a stat. Celtics have the worst pick and roll defense of the teams in the playoffs

Al Horford

Haliburton ain’t got no bag man.
Pace, screen and transition merchant
Straight up averse to contact, relying on nembhard and nesmith midrange self creation down the stretch. What lead guard doing that consistently.
His only move is a step back that you can sit on and take away when it’s obvious he has to score. he actually travels on that too
Celtics play so unserious and probably decides to smoke them next game

The first three players you brought up can’t stay healthy in the regular season or the playoffs.
