“Considering no one has experience this far into the playoffs” ??? Pascal Siakam 2019 Champion babyyy

[@philipjanabad1211]

Exactly.

[@BennyGeserit]

How could someone miss something like that. Paskal Siakam, 2019, round 1 Orlando 5 games. Round 2 Philadelphia (the shot) 7 games. Round 3 ECF Giannis Milwaukee 6 games. Round 4 NBA Finals Golden State Warriors 6 games. Pascal Siakam averaged 19.0 points, 7.1 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 24 games in the 2019 playoffs. He won his first NBA championship.

As a Mavericks fan, let me tell you that it brings me great joy to not have to see us do stuff like this late in games constantly anymore. Rick Carlisle is my favorite coach ever for winning us a ring but the way he mishandles the ends of games with using/not using timeouts appropriately and not having his players understand what to do in any given situation is really bad lol.

1:25 ain't even a travel, that's a business trip, and refs don't seems to be reffing these almost ever, gather step abuses at all times

[@Casortulfo23]

How can you defend that move

[@maartenvz]

Its mind boggling how much travelling is allowed, especially on Dribble starts. Some players bring the ball to shoulder height when they start their Dribble and have already set two steps before the ball hits the ground. Perhaps i missed a rule change here ;)

[@lilducha]

@@Casortulfo23 sorry if unclear, wasn't defending it, more making fun of it, it's basically a super travel if you ask me

[@lilducha]

@@maartenvz those also give a major advantage to attacking player, cause you can get past half the body of the defender without him actually having time to react or recognising if you intend to dribble further. but these pre shot ones give an enormous advantage, I mean anyone can shoot over someone KD's size with an extra step, don't need to fadeaway or actually take a tough shot, just carry the ball past the 3 point line and have your shot my bro. and coach nick fairly says in this one on an uncalled obvious foul, refs can only call what they see, my question is, 4 pro refs and none of them catching a guy literally having an extra step, c'mon

The story if Pacers win the game is the Celtics choked the game as well. They had the 10 point lead in the third quarter.

[@asanoayaki]

10 points mean nothing in this league

[@julianfoddrell9370]

Pacers can score 10 points in 2 minutes. Hell pacers were down 0 to 12 in first few minutes.

[@retrocny5625]

Not even a comparison bro. The Pacers had the ball up 3 with 10 seconds left. They literally just had to not do something stupid long enough to get fouled and go get your free win at the foul line. Being up 10 in the 3rd is literally nothing. The only way the Celtics could've won this game is the kind of choke job Indiana somehow pulled off.

[@yuffiel413]

[@atomickrispies]

I gotta say I've been subscribed for years and I don't know why as a Celtics fan. Like genuinely I can barely count on 2 hands the amount of just genuine positive videos you've done on the Celtics. It's always about how the other team is bad or when the Celtics are doing bad. I'm saying this as a long time subscriber, it just hurts man idk if you'll ever see this but truly I wish you'd cover them more. You've done exactly 6 videos on the Celtics this season. One of them is positive but only for JB and KP (pick & roll duos), with another being an analysis on just Jrue Holiday. In that time frame you've done 11 Videos on the Lakers 7 Videos on the Nuggets 10 Videos on the Mavs Not to mention in your 2024 playoff playlist you have 19 videos and not one on the 1st seed in the East with the best record in the league? Like it just doesn't make sense to me. You're truly great to listen to and I have acquired a lot of my deeper strategic basketball knowledge from your channel, but this is just getting annoying.

[@Chef_Boberto]

I would like to say I'm kinda upset that Rick Carlisle was not complaining about this disparity but had a problem with the Knicks getting more free throws

[@LogjammerDbaggagecling-qr5ds]

The easiest way to fix the problem is to tell his team to stop fouling so much. The NBA doesn't want a repeat of the Knicks injury debacle, so they're telling the pacers that they can't get away with that shit anymore.

[@tigerhoods7927]

lol he is a joke of a coach , he lucky he had dirk

[@supune]

That was good focus on the pacers lack of focus. but you didn't really mention how bad the Celtics played. The mistakes on both sides made for a fun game. I also thought there were a lot of no calls that went the Boston's way. In a close game 3 calls or non calls compounding on each other gives an advantage even when unintentional and by this point Tony Brothers crews need their own KZbin channel. It wasn't as bad as the first 2 games in Madison Square Garden but the leprechauns might have been tripping up the refs like it was the old Boston Garden haha

[@theheebs100]

not a surprise that a young and inexperienced team had some trouble in this situation, but I think this game shows the pacers have a real chance to win the series, and i'm sure after this one the pacers are not feeling afraid of the Celtics.

[@karlomagnoguadalupe4843]

Agree, thought it was gonna be blowout loss tbh

[@lightfeather9953]

Not sure how representative the examples Nick gave were but seems like Boston had a lot of missed open shots, particularly threes. Not a good sign for Indiana

Coach - you didn't answer your own question, as put in the title of this video. Did his coaching cost them this game? Of all the mistakes at the end of the 4th, what I don't understand, is why no one on the Pacers called time-out when they couldn't get the ball in at 10 seconds to go. They had one to burn - with 10 seconds and up 3, you want the ball inbounded, make a free throw and the game is almost always over.

Celtics need to put Horford on Nesmith, sag off of him and let him dribble the ball off his leg multiple times. That guy is a complete joke. If the refs called him for every foul he actually committed, he wouldn't last 5 mins in any game. The guy is just a walking disaster on the court, and he should be playing Slamball or something where he can't hurt real basketball players.

[@urbaindelva7869]

First of all, Coach, Siakam does have experience this far into the playoffs. Secondly, how was it legal for Haliburton to pick up his pivot foot, but illegal for him to put it down before he took the shot? In other words, either he shouldn't have picked it up, or he should've shot the ball off of one foot. Finally, is it not true that a player's dribble only ends when both hands touch the ball?

[@bballbreakdown]

He would’ve had to shoot off one foot. The rule is that you can lift the pivot so long as u shoot or pass before it comes back down. And yeah, Siakam has experience but it didn’t look like it for most of the game 😳
