This is going to be an epic series. Just great basketball with little drama. Man I love this game 🏀 ❤🖤

[@nothanksbro69]

Lol

[@ButchBrown7]

Steven A flip flops alot😂 he said Boston was gonna take it all before the game started

[@kaysheye7784]

I mean they did in the end

[@danhoskins2359]

Yeah Steven A could be replaced by literally any random dude off the street. He’s just always completely in the moment and flip flops day to day. Literally anyone could the job he does 😂

[@ButchBrown7]

@@danhoskins2359 I know he's on TV but sometimes he gets too emotional 😂

[@danhoskins2359]

@@ButchBrown7 He has 0 credibility and he’s insufferable to listen to. He thinks he’s funny too and he’s just annoying. I can’t get through more than 30 seconds of listening to him talk lol.

Yo bro... everytime u pick somebody they lose

[@Sam-db4mr]

Well Malika got her curiosity satisfied tonight - we got to see the Cs in a close game and watched them grind out a tough win!

[@cornfed4732]

I miss when play-off games ended with the score 93-87

[@curtisminor803]

Sky cam is not how we want to watch the game....am i alone?

[@curtisminor803]

So im not alone!!!

[@willread8376]

They need to stop making predictions amd just talk stats.

[@fundamentalbear8347]

Pacers just seemed gassed in the 3rd. They just finished a 7 games series in New York Sunday evening and had to be in Boston for game 1 Tuesday night, just gotta win their home games and steal game 5 or 7

[@popeye3305]

The Pacers have been the deepest bench of any team in the league. The Pacers don't get gassed. They average about 24 years of age and they've played fast all season.

[@epicgamer5520]

Or take game 2

[@SPFW21]

I'm hearing excuses. But since we're doing that, imagine if Porzingis was playing? Absolute blowout.

[@SPFW21]

@@epicgamer5520 Celtics always lose game two Boston 4-1. maybe 4-2 if they get lazy/too relaxed

[@TRSTkills]

Excuses. Ya just buns

[@USERNAME7419]

This didn't age well. Stephen gonna flip flop to the Celtics now.

[@AKSBSU]

Weird how I was told I was high on crack saying this is probably going to be a competitive series yet here were are, pretty much as dead even as it gets.

[@Sam-db4mr]

You forget Porzingis might be back after game 2. It won’t be so “dead even” then! Also what do you consider a competitive series? The Lakers lost to the Nuggets in a gentleman’s sweep but led for the vast majority of that series. Was that competitive? Nobody expected the Cs to blow out or sweep the Pacers. I predicted Cs in 6 or 5 (depending on KP), and I’m sticking to that.

[@AKSBSU]

@@Sam-db4mr The first game came down to OT and then the final few seconds. I'd say that is quite competitive.

[@abpajotte-1]

It’s hot in Boston right now. Go Boston.

[@obone1957]

As a fan of basketball, I need some help. I need the referee to pay more attention to Halliburton because he be doing a lot of walking before he takes his shot. Help me to get the referee to make that call

[@user-pu2vw7mt8n]

Stop it we know the refs are going to cheat/favor Boston at home 🙅

[@vietnam1978]

Lol no they’re not

[@thelostandprofound5683]

That was a tragic display of mental weakness for the pacers

[@erniejr.58]

People and analysts were talking crap about the knicks yet Boston has 2 players making $600 million and can’t close out at home. At least the knicks took it to 7 games with half a team. Celtics should be winning by a lot but are struggling and dont get the same criticism

[@mequelseymour4044]

Thats a lie boston get the worse criticism in the nba

[@Sam-db4mr]

Did you even watch or follow the game tonight?? They closed out at home and WON!!! Smh these clowns

[@pg13pacernation30]

And pacers sold the game 😢

[@itsallgood8206]

How much? $1.33?

[@chrisparson4542]

The refs won the game for the celtics. I guess the nba doesn't want the pacers in the finals. It's a shame when the refs call bull chit calls for one team.🤨

[@Sam-db4mr]

😂😂😂😂😂 The refs?? So the Pacers’ 20+ turnovers had nothing to do with them losing? 😂😂😂😂

[@itsallgood8206]

The better team won the game...😮😅😅
