He really is. Idk why people didn’t think that was a tougher victory than it was. Pacers got no credit for knocking Giannis out. Giannis is sincerely unstoppable

pk-starstorm | Bucks

Giannis was the best player in that series, without a doubt.

Unfortunately for the Bucks, the next like 7 guys on that list were Pacers lol

ZwtD | Pacers

True that but he was seriously worth 3 players. He is an unbelievable talent.

Funpop73

People have been throwing the terms star vs superstar in the league. I don’t know about the other guys, but Giannis is a true superstar, no question.

Sikkly290 | Suns

28 | 3 months ago

Its baffling when I see OKC and Houston fans say they wouldn’t trade for Giannis. OKC in particular, its like motherfuckers you do realize SGA+Giannis+the 7 other contributors you’d keep after the trade would go 16-1 in the post season?

AzureAhai

439 | 4 months ago

The only reason why Giannis isn’t a serious MVP contender every year is cause his team has below average players in every other role.

Abyss333333 | Toronto Huskies

144 | 4 months ago

I honestly think if Bucks had decent enough players to be a top 5 team, he would easily be labeled the best player in the game and would already be in top 10 of all time talks

Huffjenk

77 | 4 months ago

I mean the reason Jokic is considered the best is because he elevates the team around him, even though they’re higher quality than the Bucks roster. That’s what I understood as why he consistently gets the nod over Giannis

When they’re both that good those things will separate them, although maybe team success would make Giannis undeniable like how it is with Jordan

capogravity | Knicks

Giannis doesn’t get enough credit for how much better he makes his teammates, especially on the defensive end. Man been holding on to Bobby Portis and the corpse of Brook Lopez as his front court mates for years now

Hali is their #1 guy, no question, but he had some bad games this series. Siakam carried them in a lot of these games.

Siakam seems to operate almost independently of everyone else sometimes. He can get it going even when the rest of the team is struggling. Extremely valuable.

It’s honestly kind of amazing how determined people are to still pretend y’all are not a great team. Before this series, I felt like I was one of the only Knicks fans who saw you as favorites to win this series. I knew we were in trouble the moment I realized the Cavs didn’t have a prayer in the semis.

I’d still slightly favor OKC to win in the Finals, but I don’t think there’s another team in the league who’s as well poised to stop them as the Pacers are.

As well as all the other hassling he was doing, every time Brunson got to the half way line, Nembhard was banging him trying for the over and back turnover. And he even got a turnover or two from it, eg Hali snuck up on the side as Brunson was trying to avoid the bump, and they ended with a turnover and bucket.

Relentless.

They’re just a machine, man. Everything came in so easy for the Pacers, and the exact opposite for the Knicks. You simply cannot will yourself to a win with offensive rebounding and barreling to the rim if you don’t have a solid foundation to fall back onto. In a win or go home game 6, the Pacers fell back to their identity of break neck speed while Knicks were left searching for one.

Pacers did a great job of keeping the lead between 10-16 points throughout the second half. Didn’t let the lead get to 20 (which as we all know activates the Knicks’ Fuego mode) until it was too late to matter.

Enormous bench frontcourt minutes from both Obi Toppin and Thomas Bryant won this game for the Pacers. Turner was in foul trouble throughout and Bryant and Toppin hit enough shots to keep the Knicks at arm’s length and KAT and Brunson weren’t able to make them pay. Siakam and the defense carried for three quarters and Hali took em home in the fourth.

Haliburton takeover in the 4th quarter to send them to the Finals was special while having Reggie Miller on the call, also Knicks got blown out in a Game 6 elimination game despite being fully healthy this season against this Pacers team and this STILL isn’t the most embarrassing New York sports loss from today

Thibs got out coached bad (again) but honestly the Pacers just out worked the Knicks at literally everything tonight. Definition of wanting it more

Gregg Doyel: “How is it possible that the Pacers are going to the NBA finals when the Knicks played harder in games 3 and 5? And the Cavs and Bucks played harder in game 3??! Can you make sense of it for those of us who don’t play the game at this level??? How is that possible? How?”

Gregg Doyle should retroactively get Mr. Halliburton’s indefinite ban. And the the indefinite needs to last FOR LIFE.

Good thing Knicks fans didn’t celebrate like idiots on video this postseason after winning games, because they would be looking like a bunch of stupid loser assholes right now if they did.

With all due, we haven’t made a conference finals in 25 years. Should teams never celebrate any success? Should all 29 non-champion teams not celebrate a successful season? Beating Boston is an accomplishment worth celebrating while also recognizing we fucked ourselves in the ECF

Welp, that does it for us.

Despite us getting past the defending champs after losing four straight to them in embarrassing losses in the regular season, despite us making our first ECF in 25 years, despite us actually getting to Game fucking 6 instead of getting swept, despite being in the final three of this NBA season this year, despite all of this, I fully expect the LOLKnicks to come out in full force tonight because like the Jets and Mets, people will laugh at us when we suck and then both hate and laugh at us when we’re great.

But I’m not letting those morons take away from the fact that we’d improved on last year’s season and we just ran out of gas against a great Pacers team that has a world of depth. And yes, our star players did what almost every star player in NYC had done since 2012 (besides the Liberty): shit their pants in the most important games under the brightest of lights. So yeah, congrats to the Pacers.

As for us? Unfortunately, our “can’t win a playoff series where we lose Game 1 at home” curse continues and of course our title drought will now reach 52 fucking years. But in the offseason hopefully we get some depth and can make a true run to finally reach our first NBA Finals appearance since 1999.

The cherry on top of Indiana winning is that we avoided a finals filled with ESPN sucking up the celebrities at MSG.

Thibs lost the Knicks this series, in several crucial ways:

1.first and foremost, he lost them game 1. Yes Nesmith got historically hot from 3, but a well coached team never lets that happen.

He didn’t utilize his bench until too late in the series. Against a generationally high paced team, that’s just suicide.
He never adjusted to Indiana’s cherry picker outlet pass off every missed or made Knicks shot. Carlisle was happy to trade a few lost ORebs for the highest percentage buckets possible. It was wild to watch them get exploited like that repeatedly with no counter from their coach.

Knicks fans, the ride might have been your first fun in a generation, but I’d be concerned that your all in moves won’t ever be enough.

Knicks fans gotta be hating the Pacers man, 4th straight playoff series theyve lost to them. Last time they won was in 1999. Talk about an achilles heel

I know all the fanfare will be for Pascal, Hali and Nembhard (with good reason) but Obi Toppin played amazing in the 4th. 8 points and 2 blocks is a nice quarter of work, not to mention the energy he brought

Honestly happy for the Pacers. Had to listen to all the talking heads act like the Knicks were the only team in this series and completely ignored talking about the Pacers, but they forgot this Pacers team has been ROLLING since January. I think it will be a better than expected Finals and I’m rooting for Indiana.

PASCAL MVP SO SO DESERVING

The Indiana Pacers win the East 4-2 over the New York Knicks, 125-108. The Pacers make their first Finals trip since 2000, Pascal Siakam sizzles with 31/5/3, Tyrese Haliburton has 21/6/14
