NBA In-Game Thread

What a stat from ESPN Research: Since 1997-98, teams are 3-1,640 when trailing by 7+ in the final minute of the 4th quarter/OT.

The Pacers, this postseason, have 2 of those wins.
Just like the Pats‘ big comeback vs the Falcons, they involved a crucial turnover from the defense
 
My German friend keeps spoiling the ending of games with his whatsapp messages. I turned off whatsapp notifications, which makes me feel bad, but I mean he‘s done it twice.
 
Feels like all these games are going the same lol…top seed returns in G2 with big first quarter, leads in 3Q by like 15…
 
Does Tatum shave? 2 horrible turnovers on fast breaks. Up 20 should have been 22. Immediately leads to 8-0 run.
 
It was 75-55 and Tatum just carelessly gives Brown a bad bounce pass on a 2 on 1. Knicks were ready to pack it in.

Then a minute later he had a wide open 8 footer and throws a bad lob to Zinger.

For the last two and a half mins they don’t get one shot on goal to end the third quarter.

This is pathetic stuff.
 
Pacers weren’t great. Miami was missing everyone and they’re a 30 win team now. Mavs are a 9/10 seed. They played the worst strength of opponent I think in history?
Are you equating Luka and Kyrie Mavs to current Mavs without either? You‘re clearly smart you just get emotional and make these heat-of-the-moment knee-jerk comments that lack logic

That team got very hot but they literally blew it up because they knew it wasn’t a legit contender. That team was treading .500 even when both of them played this year.

The Celtics had the easiest path to a finals of all time I believe. You can try to argue that by simply finding out if it’s true or not.
 
They played an 8, a 4, a 6, and a 5. I don’t think anyone has ever played a combined 23 seeds. I could be wrong.

Why run the same play twice ? Why just tatum...horseshit u can't draw anything else up

Tatum has no 3rd gear. It’s either so slow and annoying and when he goes fast he’s out of control and is unable to see and find open guys. Been that way forever.
 
Can someone do the math, i'm a complete idiot with numbers? 78 points with 2:51 left in the 1H. Is that 170 pace?
 
They could win the next 5 rings
Crazy that they are doing what Memphis should be doing. Both were postured, one took advantage. Memphis have plenty of time and assets to make it up still but those are the two teams in the West that make up the future.
 
I toyed with taking -21.5 live, but having dallied over taking -13.5 live before passing on it (OKC led by 9 or 10 when that was offered iirc) I decided losing 8 points in value was too much to accept. Silly me. When teams quit under the new offensive rules, boy do they quit.
