    imagine scoring 152 points and your points differential getting worse

  2. NBA fans in the early 2000s would internally combust if they watched Hali versus Trae, no defense just vibes, 157-152

  3. Convulsed

    When did they move the All Star Game to November?

  4. There are some old heads rolling in their graves at the defense that was on display today, especially near the end.

  5. I would like to apologize to Kings/Pacers fans

    I didn’t believe the Halliburton hype. I thought he’d be a good player, quality starter, maybe an all-star one or two years

    i was fucking wrong. Tyrese is Him as far as I am concerned today, what a fucking game

  6. traebucketsfor3

    Brutal ending to such a great offensive game

  7. KingREX_24

    I was wrong about the In-Season Tournament, this has been amazing basketball.

  8. nutsygenius

    Just a standard Pacers game score (The Carlisle special) lol

  9. Brady331

    309 points scored without OT gotta be a record, or close to one, right?

  10. that decision by murray at the end there certainly was a…. decision

  11. Jnbjgjbb

    Absolute madness, teams were shooting like 90% the last 5 minutes

  12. Solid-Confidence-966

    No Trae or Haliburton slander tonight

  13. tiger32kw

    What the fuck did I just watch 😆

    See y’all in the in-season tournament

  14. DjLionOrder

    Easily the most entertaining game I’ve seen in years.

    Hali is a star but the Pacers desperately need to find some semblance of a defense.

  15. Queasy_Idea_3599

    Now that’s a basketball game. So fun.

  16. 2ndCatch

    As a neutral, I appreciate both teams coming out today and deciding defense is overrated.

  17. americanbeaver

    “A shot clock violation in this game would be the biggest upset of the tournament”-Hawks broadcast. They said this right at the start and that was a pretty good summary of the game lmao

  18. what a fucking 4th quarter. After every insane make the announcers kept going “this is incredible” lol

    DJ really fucked up in the clutch (twice), but he and Trae had great games

  19. KyleRaynerGotSweg

    On one hand, we have no defense. On the other hand, Haliburton.

  20. theduckhaslanded

    The Pacers have the (in season tournament) MVP and are the (spread PnR, no defense) kings of the east!!

  21. AshenUndeadCurse

    That was a fun game to watch Indi has a good team. Trae actually had good defense on that last play too but can’t win them all

  22. I picked a great day to buy League Pass, that was fun as hell.

  23. childishgames

    Man Haliburton and Buddy are so unfair. 15-21 from 3 dude it’s impossible

  24. This Pacers team might put up 200 against Detroit, lol

  25. nutsygenius

    Tyrese had 37 at the end of 3rd and didn’t score any in the 4th and they won?! Damn

  26. FeminismIsTheBestIsm

    ## East Group A Standings

    |Team|GP|W|L|PF|PA|PD|
    :–|:–|:–|:–|:–|:–|:–|
    |Indiana Pacers|3|3|0|410|394|16|
    |Philadelphia 76ers|3|2|1|366|354|12
    |Cleveland Cavaliers|2|1|1|224|221|3|
    |Atlanta Hawks|3|1|2|394|403|-9|
    |Detroit Pistons|3|0|3|326|348|-22|

    The Indiana Pacers become the **first team to secure a spot in the knockout round.**.

  27. muzumuzu

    This was the most fun game I’ve watched in a while. Not just the shot-making (both teams shot 60%!), but what a relief not to have crunch time ruined by endless timeouts and challenges.

    The last 3 minutes actually felt kinda like 3-4 minutes! What a concept!

  28. DiscussionEvery1840

    I was watching this game and the Tennessee vs Purdue game at the same time, and it felt like I was literally watching two completely different sports

  29. FlyingSMonster

    Had to double check to confirm this wasn’t some kind of double OT game and nope, both teams scoring 150+ in regulation wtf? Pacers shooting 48% from 3 on fucking 45 attempts? Insane.

  30. miiblord

    One of the best regular seasons I’ve ever seen.

    A joke the Pacers only have one national TV game

  31. Arrelecq

    This really makes me appreciate the Magic defense even more. They’re built to suffocate teams like the Pacers

  32. VersacePencil

    One of the best games I have ever seen.

    It was like watching two super saiyans duking it out

  33. sgeswein

    Nate McMillan is in an easy chair somewhere sitting in shock, mumbling “309? They scored 309?”
