I had Pacers in 6 before the series. I’m feeling really good about that. This team is simply relentless. They do not stop. Their offense is also just utterly potent. The Knicks are far too Brunson reliant.

I think Pacers/Thunder will be more electric than people think. The basketball should be so fun to watch.

The last 7 WCF results: 2025 — 5 game series 2024 — 5 game series 2023 — 4 game series 2022 — 5 game series 2021 — 6 game series 2020 — 5 game series 2019 — 4 game series A WHOLE BUNCH OF CONFERENCE FINAL DUDS 😪

LeBron is better than at least 10 of these guys LMFAOOOOOOOO

Took way longer than expected, but we arrived.

Year 22 Age 40 only played 5 games and is there TWICE 😭😭😭

Why does Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves just keep handing teams Conference Finals byes?

The KAT/Randle trade has given both teams all the GOOD and all the BAD in the same playoff run. Remarkable.

The only players in NBA history to ever record 70 PTS, 15 REB, 15 AST over any two-game span in the Conference Finals: 4x — LeBron James 3x — Everybody else COMBINED (Jordan, Kobe, Shai) (via Real Sports)

It’s been pretty clear if you watch the series.

Haliburton toggles between Jason Kidd and Corey Joseph on a game-to-game basis.

Stan Van Gundy is right. NBA is entertainment at the end of the day. We’re not trying to watch an NBA player who can’t shoot free throws. Great basketball strategy, but bad for the product.

LeBron James: — 50,473 career points — 21 All-NBA selections Magic Johnson & Larry Bird COMBINED: — 47,096 career points — 20 All-NBA selections INSANITY... 🤯

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: 2017 LeBron was sandwiched in between the 2016 3-1 comeback and the 2018 Playoff LeBron, so it gets forgotten. After this stretch, he averaged a triple-double in the Finals. 2017 LeBron has an argument to being as good as any version.

LeBron was the best basketball player on the planet from this day until the night Solomon Hill dived into his ankle. 14 years holding the throne. 2007-2021. We’ll NEVER see that again. 🐐

Witness King James 🎯

7 years ago today, LeBron put up 51-8-8 in Game 1 of the 2018 Finals. The GREATEST player ever at the PEAK of his basketball powers. 🐐

Eastern Conference 🏆 the last 15 years: ‘11: LeBron ‘12: LeBron ‘13: LeBron ‘14: LeBron ‘15: LeBron ‘16: LeBron ‘17: LeBron ‘18: LeBron ‘19: Raptors ‘20: Heat ‘21: Bucks ‘22: Celtics ‘23: Heat ‘24: Celtics ‘25: Pacers 8 straight Finals for LeBron. Since he left the East, no

Year 22 Age 40 GAMED an NBA Finals team? Hang it in the louvre. 🐐

Luka on something that stands out about LeBron: “Well first of all, he shows up like 10 hours before the game… I came to the arena and he was already done working out. I was like, ‘What?’” 🤣 (via Mind the Game)
