    For those that have been stat-watching Hali for the last few months, have you noticed how wide open his teammate’s shots are? It’s not a coincidence

  2. Bucks really showing their age and it’s only the first round. Yikes…

  3. honestly still a mid game from Haliburton. I think Bucks can still win without Giannis or at least push it to game 7 if Haliburton doesn’t step it up.

  4. ShichikaYasuri18

    Damn if this is a washed Dame how good was he in his prime?

  5. joebos617

    that dead cat bounce game 1 W followed by this is a 2019 Celtics master class

  6. HeyItsChase

    Dear lower seed teams,

    We broke the streak. Your welcome.

    Signed, Pacers.

    Ps:
    Eat shit and die haters. Let’s fucking go Pacers.

  7. Pacers really understood the assignment on offense this year

  8. notaninterestinguser

    Insane watching it go from a 4 point game to the pacers just draining the life out of them over the course of like 60 seconds.

  9. SoSmooth32

    Not that the Pacers give af nor should they but their bench celebrating might spark the wrong kind of smoke. Feels like it angers the basketball gods sometimes when it’s overboard. I say this as someone rooting for the Pacers

  10. Funyarinpa-13

    Wtf, Pacers’ regressing to the mean means they’ll be hitting more 3s.

  11. EvertEaglPhilliKnick

    Being a bench player on a good team must be fun as hell. Get free gear, free meals, free travel, and a nice paycheck. Plus you get the hoes the starters don’t want.

  12. iPlayGamesOK

    Would I love to see Hali get some points? Sure. But the dude plays selfless ball and passes to guys that are open.

  13. “This is what you brought me here for…” proceeds to get blown out at home game 2

  14. Living_LaVida_Koloko

    It’s always funny when a team hires Doc Rivers and fans of his former teams laugh at his hiring while the Bucks fan base were trying to rationalize it as a solid choice.

    Saw the same happen with Philly and it’s happening again. Like watching a bike crash in slow motion

  15. Superb_Succotash_907

    Bucks and the returning Giannis on Friday about to find out what kind of energy the crowd gives the Pacers.

  16. c_u_in_da_ballpit20

    Neither of these playoff games have been great from a neutral fan standpoint but I like the rivalry developing between these teams. I see this going to a hot Game 7.

  17. quasithomas

    Siakam would average 100 per game with Dame’s whistle.

  18. Its time for the Bucks to light up the batsign in the Sky and if Giannis doesnt show up they are in trouble.

  19. Sirius443

    Hiring doc rivers mid season is probably one of the most stupid decisions any gm made. Milwaukee had a winning record before they fired him and doc is under .500 coaching the bucks

  20. Bucks defense was rough, Pacers diced them up. Both games pretty one sided

  21. Worth-Development684

    Only Adrian Griffin can save the Bucks at this point if they get on their hands and knees and apologize

  22. Siakim is unbelievable, it’s effortless when he’s on

  23. _I_hate__myself__

    The only explanation for the haliburton slander has to be degenerate gamblers who took his points prop.

  24. fuccabicc

    Taking out your starters that early in a playoff game feels crazy to me, no matter the point differential

  25. Sigerlion

    Doc waved the white flag at 5 min mark basically. Heart of a champion right there.
