[QUOTE=GOBB;15012685]ESPN might not be bringing Doris Burke back btw. Might be her last finals[/QUOTE]
I would hope she won't come back.
Never thought I would see the day where I would miss Mark Jackson as a commentator. ESPN made a huge mistake letting go of Jeff Van Gundy, he was the MVP of that broadcasting team.

Maybe they can get someone from the TNT crew to take her place since Inside the NBA is coming over.

I don't know about you but I dislike Stan, but I like Jeff. Not sure why.

I don't dislike Stan, but Jeff is funnier. Both grew up in the town where I was born btw. Jeff would shout out the town from time to time while he was calling games.

Good to hear them call Haliburton out...
[QUOTE=Hey Yo;15012704]Good to hear them call Haliburton out...[/QUOTE]
He has been pretty quiet in this series minus the game winner.
just as expected. OKC showing up, while pacers struggle to not be blown out. i would be very surprised if this series goes beyond 5 games.
Hali has been horrific tonight.
Hali with same amount of pts as turnovers...5
The pacers suck whenever haliburton is awful on offense.
Comes awake at garbage time
The amount of fouls in this game from both team is f'ckin ridiculous. What am I watching.

Is it? Game 1 was a phenomenal basketball game. Just because you care less about the teams doesn’t actually mean the product is lacking
[QUOTE=highwhey;15012717]the most boring finals of this century[/QUOTE]
Sounds like a single-game hot take. The Pacers' Game 1 comeback alone makes it more memorable to me than the previous-two Finals.
[QUOTE=highwhey;15012717]the most boring finals of this century[/QUOTE]
Maybe just slightly better than the '23 finals in which the nuggets felt a bit boring.

You can tell who the Bronie fluffers are. This series, and OKC's playoffs as a whole, have been phenomenal.

you mean, the late portion of the 4th quarter? because the okc had a bad night offensively and the pacers still struggled to keep up...until late in the 4th.
[QUOTE=ShawkFactory;15012720]Is it? Game 1 was a phenomenal basketball game. Just because you care less about the teams doesn’t actually mean the product is lacking[/QUOTE]
i am fully invested in the pacers winning, and game 1 - for the most part - was not a "phenomenal" game. the ending was phenomenal, sure, the rest just showed me why OKC will win.
[QUOTE=Meticode;15012651]I think you're right, OKC by 10-15. My prediction was the Pacers would win only one of the first two Thunder home games.[/QUOTE]
Close, 16 points.

^BITCH FIT.
Hilarious how SGA triggers the stinky boy. Over here just fuming knowing that he's probably going to win FMVP while his hero choked and got bounced in the first round.

Well, they did it against a near 70-win team that is stacked more or less[url=https://i.ibb.co/gDsySW3/IMG-20230603-203842.jpg].[/url]
Game 3 will be in 2 days? Yall gonna be alright until that day?

Just think, this idiot^ didn't even think that OKC would end up 4th-6th seed last year. That's how dumb he is. :roll:
But I assume everyone already knows that, which is why he was voted dumbest poster in ISH history.

I've never seen anything like this Finals. No-one is talking about it, no-one cares, everyone's already looking at the draft/next season/other sports.
Absolutely crazy. The RS saw an explosion of interest with the Luka trade then the Knicks having a good run and now it's just completely flamed out into nothing.
I don't even have a point, I'm just saying what I see or rather what I don't see.

Well look at the page count for this thread. A first round first game of the series LeBron game would have more interest than this and we're 2 games into the Finals lol.
SGA isn't a star, Haliburton isn't a star and the league is driven by stars.

The big market teams run the league. The league would've rather seen the Knicks play the T Wolves.

I'm glad two the Knicks didn't make it. I was rooting for them up until the ECF. I'd rather have some smaller market teams in there.
Has anyone bet money on the finals? From individual game, series player parlays player props etc
I don’t gamble. I like my money. But always curious what side gamblers have been leaning on these finals.

Yeah I stopped at the ECF with the Knicks. I don’t like the Knicks and their fanbase is obnoxious. And yes some of the Philly fanbase can wear their crown as well.
Any time lakers Celtics Knicks fail I smile. I can admit I do like how the Celtics have been their franchise over the years. I too don’t mind the small market matchup myself.

Both are star players. Did you mean superstars? That’s a big difference and has everything to do with casual fans who don’t even follow the sport much to tune in. Normally superstar vs superstar finals draw more interest.
