So basically it would be tied if the correct calls were made.

Cool.

 

[Red Blaster]

Lost their starting point guard, have a 20 rebound deficit and are playing 8 on 5. Possibly everything possible could go wrong for the Pacers tonight and the Bulls are still struggling to take them out.

 

[captmcblack]

Those FTs were cold blooded.

 

[Gigglepoo]

There is no conspiracy, just terrible incompetent reffing.

Exactly. Still sucks when it goes against my team. The Pacers need all the help they can get. It's crazy that they're this close without their PG

 

[Doc Holliday]

"Pacers suck"

Really? You guys are struggling to beat a 37-win team that's predominantly made of first and second year players. Congrats?

It's the playoffs, it's almost never a blowout.

 

[reggieandTFE]

This series is gonna get way uglier in Indiana.

Have you been to Indy? You can't get much uglier than their women...

 

[KingGondo]

What call was that awful? Noah had a clean block for foul. Offsetting the Hibbert offensive foul, that should have been a travel. And the Pacers just grabbed Rose's arm - ok no they didn't haha.

Either way, I don't want to hear the refs stole it every game. It's getting sad.

Hibbert didn't travel, didn't foul Noah, Boozer shoved Foster out of bounds, and the Bulls deserve to lose because Noah and Boozer are arrogant loudmouth douches.

"Pacers suck." Winning with class. Hey dumbasses, the 8 seed is supposed to suck, your team is the one making them look like they belong in the playoffs.

 

[J2 Cool]

This series is gonna get way uglier in Indiana.

I'd put money on the Bulls getting it together in Indiana. Unless Collison gets back, I don't see Indiana taking one.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

We need some Klutch from Kutcher.

Ashton Clutcher. Believe.

 

[Sanjuro]

I wonder if the Pacers could borrow Ray Ray?

 

[Gigglepoo]

It's the playoffs, it's almost never a blowout.

It almost always is in 1/8 match ups.

 

[StickSoldier]

Deng isn't very clutch at Fts is he?

 

[Grimm Fandango]

Jesus the refs just letting the clock run. This fucking game sucks balls.

 

[J2 Cool]

and the Bulls deserve to lose because Noah and Boozer are arrogant loudmouth douches.

Boozer can't be blamed, he has tourettes. If Indiana could rebound, they would win this game.

 

[iamvin22]

and....thats the game

 

[Dreams-Visions]

GG, Indiana.

 

[Red Blaster]

Bulls are an even worse 1 seed than the Spuds.

 

[aznpxdd]

What's up with all these lame ass incorrect calls in the last minute?

Celtics, Thunder and now this.

 

[lawlohwhat]

It's not a troll, I've watched it 3 times in slo mo on tivo the ref was right on the call it was a wipeout.

now this is a little better... keep going!

 

[snack]

GG, Indiana.

GG.

 

[masud]

I wonder if the Pacers could borrow Ray Ray?

Wouldn’t they need to borrow KG for a passionate screen too?

 

[Ephemeris]

this game more than made up for the previous game of the day.

 

[Vestal]

It's the playoffs, it's almost never a blowout.

MJ bulls used to blow out every single first round team.. Just toyed with them.

 

[soujiro_seta]

Twas a good game. GG Pacers, y'all did good!

 

[reilo]

By the end of the chapter, Allen is advocating for a more level playing field between small market and big market teams. "We're doing just about everything right, but we're still losing money," Allen writes. And, due to contract extensions for Brandon Roy and LaMarcus Aldridge, the Blazers "won't be turning a profit anytime soon, a fact that speaks volumes about the plight of smaller-market franchises in the NBA." He points out that the NBA has yet to address the "big market / small market discrepancy" and says that in his "perfect world" the NBA playing field would be more level.

Perhaps most interestingly, Allen says that he met with NBA commissioner David Stern in New York City when the Rose Garden was in bankruptcy to discuss his options. Stern's response: "Well, you can always sell your team."

Uhm, for real?

 

[Herpes Reasons]

Refs -1
Gaf - zero

 

[Iron E Man]

GG Indiana once again.

Still embarrassing.

 

[xxxstylzxxx]

that's game. Pacers with a valiant effort once again.

 

[iamvin22]

Geez dat hair line

 

[Vestal]

Pacers are winning game 3.

 

[Gigglepoo]

Can't wait to go back home for a couple games. Should be two great games.

 

[reggieandTFE]

Comcast went out on the South Side of Chicago as Deng shot the 1st free throw.

 

[J2 Cool]

I appreciate Indiana's hustle, but they don't "deserve" a game if they couldn't beat the Bulls the way they played tonight. They're allowing the Bulls to hang in, who are just beating them at the end.

 

[dream]

What an unbelievably humble win for Rose.

 

[LyleLanley]

I appreciate Indiana's hustle, but they don't "deserve" a game if they couldn't beat the Bulls the way they played tonight. They're allowing the Bulls to hang in, who are just beating them at the end.

The pacers were robbed by the refs tonight.

 

[Grimm Fandango]

Thank god this game is over. Honestly a loss might have been better for the Bulls. A win only encourages more of this garbage.

And yeah just beyond horrible officiating.

 

[Ickman3400]

I'm happy we won but I couldn't be more disgusted with this team.

 

[Vestal]

This series is atleast going 6... Something about Pacer effort.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

LOL Noah

 

[Seda]

What a fucked up game.

 

[zychi]

Comcast went out on the South Side of Chicago as Deng shot the 1st free throw.

False. Just yours. I watched the whole thing, same area.

 

[Iron E Man]

Needs more Asik playing time.

 

[Owzers]

thanks refs for another illegitimate playoff game

That's basically how i feel. 3 great games i've watched with horrendous calls at the very end ruining it.

 

[Red Blaster]

lololololol

The Pacers had AJ Price running their offense in the 2nd half. Do you even know who AJ Price is.

 

[J2 Cool]

The pacers were robbed by the refs tonight.

At best, they deserve overtime then. jesus.

lololololol

The Pacers had AJ Price running their offense in the 2nd half. Do you even know who AJ Price is.

I don't get why TJ Ford wasn't playing instead.

 

[Sanjuro]

Wouldn’t they need to borrow KG for a passionate screen too?

Most importantly, they would need to borrow a Knicks team which can be handed a free game in the final seconds and blow it in epic proportions.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

the nba is like a drug that I know is bad for me but I can't stop using it.. these fucking calls have to be cleaned up, I hope the lockout really shakes some shit up.

 

[punkypine]

so many chicago fans

#tradeiggyfor is trending on twitter

 

[diehard]

Ive never been less impressed by back to back 39 and 36 point games.

 

[SoulPlaya]

Stacey King is out of his mind. Rose played terribly tonight, and so did Deng. Boozer played well.

Boozer played well. Yeah, I had to say it twice, because it might be the last time I say it for a long while.
