So yeah, with my earlier comments, what I really meant, was when McConnell and whoever were d-cking around with the ball in the late 3rd, should have just been giving it to Nesmith.

Most of the comments and discourse around the Shai fouls are so disingenuous or flat out wrong it’s generally not worth commenting back, but I’ll give my take before I go back into hybernation.

So, Shai does look for fouls. It’s not a secret or anything, but it’s also generally in the flow of the game on basketball plays so I don’t have a huge problem with it. He’s almost always working his way to the basket, so if he beats his man enough to put them at a disadvantage, why not also draw contact while they’re not in legal guarding position and get an and-1? All the comments about him being as bad or worse than Harden are completely off base, especially when it’s the same people who were rooting for Denver in the last round while Jokic was jumping on top of guys 30 feet from the basket looking for fouls that had nothing to do with the flow of the game.

I saw a stat from KOC that Shai drew 13 fouls on 28 drives, and Ant drew 7 fouls on 7 drives. But somehow due to the final volume numbers, Shai is a foul merchant while all these guys who avoid contact and chuck 3s are not? It’s ridiculous. It’s honestly sad that due to social media algorithms and cherry picked 5 second clips, so many people will have their opinions formed and feel compelled to spread negativity and misinformation. At the end of the day though everyone will get their comments in and a year from now they won’t remember and be on to the next thing
This is a conversation I really want to get into. Right now.

So now my heart wants the Pacers to tie on a Nesmith 3 and then win.

But my head wants the Pacers to give the Knicks their one game. So they don't hate Nesmith eternally.

Nesmith has the records for most 3s in the 4th in a playoff game.

I'm sorry for not listening to you earlier Nomad.

Someone within the Pacers organization had to have made a deal with Satan. There is no other explanation

That bounce made Kawhi's look amateur.

Can't help but think this is a multi-generational curse with no end in sight.

Knicks deserve to lose this in overtime. Even with the miracle brick Halliburton got to go in.

Pacers got away with obvious goaltending there.

Yeah they almost always make the call when it’s that close, surprised they didn’t. Clearly a goaltend on the replay.
