@co2metal I know I didn't realize how badly I spelled it until after I posted it and I'm lame and couldn't figure out how to edit it. I'm an idiot.

Every loss all he does is complain. Be a man and admit your failures

3:21 Most Indy fans gonna dislike my comment, but I like the no foul call. Let them play. 7:54 NO DIDDY

[@hunter_756]

on that last play if nemhart does a cross over to his left he leaves jrue holiday behind but when he decided to go right he met the entire body of jrue holidy in his path and that gave jrue all the advantage, huge play.

Availability is an ability. Coulda shoulda.

pacers are frauds

[@Dbo_Sports]

@@chemicalhapPhilly did knock out two of their players in Robinson and Bogdanovic personally. Just Bogdanovic being available beats the Pacers.

bring in darvin ham as a next head coach

​@@joelreyes978just to get fired mid-season

[@MuscularMario2300]

Rick is not getting fired. He just got his team to the ECF. You dont fired some who is OVERACHEIVING

[@elefana7700]

Indy is dumb if fired him, he is indeed overachieved even when they got swept in this ECF

[@user-cj1tc8zi4e]

No way he gets fired Pacers were probably not even expected to be a playoff team. Will probably get swept or lose in 5 but could be up 2-1 if they could finish.

Come on ESPN no Al Horford interview show that man some respect!

[@angelatanurdzic7508]

An amazing comeback by the Celtics.

[@DadBodTheGod]

I know everyone is getting hype about this comeback, but youre playing a team without their #1 player and trailed by 18. Whoever yall face in the finals, you dont want to be in this situation. Youd much rather play the pacers than minnesota or dallas.

[@petepistol6403]

Dallas just did that to the Wolves...What's yur point?

East has been so awful it is celtics obligation to win it.
