Time for the few NBA fans here to have their own thread.

The Pacers should have won game 1 in Boston. Those late mistakes did them in. Boston may sweep.

Now for my T Wolves, with how they were playing they should have lost by more. The barrage of 3 pointers in the first half put them in a good spot but as soon as they couldn't hit as many they didn't have many other solutions. Dallas had a better game plan and they executed it well. Feeling good the game was that close considering Dallas was the better team. Friday night should be a fun game.

Holy crap Luka is annoyingly good. He doesn't look fast.....he doesn't look like he should be that good. I don't get how he does what he does.

Boston has not played up to their regular season dominance so far in these playoffs. Are they really just waiting for Porzingus to come back? They've had it pretty easy so far.....East is decimated by injuries. Bucks, Knicks, Cavs, Heat all missing vital players. We'll see how Pacers respond in Game 2.
Really thought Minn would take their series in 6 or less. Very impressed the way they beat the Nuggets. Their vaunted defense didin't really show up in Game 1.
