Cleveland Cavaliers vs Indiana Pacers Full Highlights 4th Qtr | May 11 | 2025 NBA Highlights
has first player Kenny Atkinson goes a little bit deeper into his bench as Isaac Ooro begins the fourth quarter with a driving layup. So a 30point game. Cleveland has been down by as many as 44 points. They were down by 41 at halftime and what was the biggest halftime lead in Indiana. CJ McConnell off target from beat. Now what’s going to happen if you’re Kenny Atkinson is you got to figure out a way to make sure your guys understand you’re going to get a travel there in a seven game series after losing that first game at home. You were going to have to win two games in Indianapolis. Obviously you would have preferred to win game four but you get another opportunity in game six. So, you got to take care of your business back in Cleveland as they continue to put on a show here for the home crowd. And I’ve been in this situation, Frell, a few times. And you can’t get ahead of yourself. You just got to be focused on game five. If you’re Cleveland, somehow get it back here. But they better figure out a way to how to contain TJ McConnell who continues to be a problem. How hard is that psychological hurdle to come back from a game like this GA in a seven game series for for a team that believes you can do it? They’re going to get an offensive foul there. If you He has done it all season long here for the Pacers. And boy, an Indiana crowd that left this building with a bad taste in their mouths after game three. They have been venomous with the volume and the noise tonight with 18,000 strong bearing down on Cleveland. Here comes Jaylen Tyson taking a little buck in a position where they’re going to have to save their season on Tuesday night. And then you throw in the the questionable status of Donovan Mitchell who left this game with an ankle injury. Came out to warm up at halftime. felt something in that ankle area and quickly went back into the Cavs locker room and we have not seen him since. Tyson Albertton taking some heat now talking to the media Greg at the end of that game three Sheepard to the basket and they just keep on coming. Fred Porter Jr. out of Tyson as we hit the 9minute mark. Tristan Thompson up with a leaning baby hook shot. And and I’ll tell you what also is impressive after that finish by Thompson. The guys on the floor now, the Pacers still playing with great energy and intensity. Thompson right at the rim corner three o and Rick Carile is going to take a timeout with a left ankle injury. So again, a left ankle injury is what rules him doubtful. And we’ll keep our eye on that ankle and find out as much as we can after the game on what his status may or may not be with about 47 hours from the start of tonight’s game to the start of game five on Tuesday. Five games that Mitchell missed with the ankle that Jared just mentioned to close the regular season. More from a a precautionary approach wasn’t anything serious. Five of the 11 games that Mitchell missed to injury this season with Cleveland having that one seed pretty much locked up over the final couple of weeks of the season. Ended up winning the East by three games over Boston. Shepard misses the layup and Javvante Green comes out of the play. And I will tell you obviously everyone’s going to be concerned about the status of Donovan Mitchell, but TJ referred to James Johnson as his big brother on this roster. He’s playing with his 10th NBA team as Jarus Walker misses the little flick. And boy, we asked Rick Carile about Johnson and you can sense the respect that Carile has for his longtime veteran as Johnson gets the block at the rim. He said that he will approach Johnson late in lopsided games as FY misses a corner three and he’ll ask Johnson if he wants to go into the game as Jarus Walker took a shot. We’re going to get an offensive foul. So you’re going to at least ask them if they have interest. But he said, “Hey, he has been in this league a long time. He’s a leader on this team, as Jared talked about, and he’s deserved an opportunity to play in front of his family and friends like the rest of their crew.” And he came in immediately and gave a nice hard foul back in game three as well. Porter Jr. misses on a three and Indiana just keeps their foot on the gas pedal. It has been unbelievable to watch Shephard. Craig Porter Jr. able to sneak underneath that Indiana defense. Porter Jr. undrafted. Second NBA season out of Witchah State. actually from Terode, Indiana, about 80 miles southwest of where we are here in Indianapolis. Shepard hanging and Ben Shepard’s got 11 points off the bench. Bon Tyson dribbled himself into trouble underneath. Offensive rebound Johnny Purple and they’re going to reset to Johnson. Shot clock at two. Shepard just banked in a three from the corner. They have just got everything going their way here. Devonte Green, Ben Shepard, one of seven Pacer drafties on this current roster. Just tells you how Kevin Pritchard has built this thing organically through the draft. And and Spir, I’m glad you mentioned that too because that’s you think of the modern NBA, player development is critical. You’ve got to be able to get guys that fit your style and your seel tonight after a 22point loss on this floor in game three. Whistle blown underneath. Tristan Thompson working and penalty situation will put Thompson at the free throw line. I got to tell you, I’m really excited to see how this Cavs team’s going to respond in game five.

Death, Taxes and Cavs choking in playoffs
DM watching from the locker room getting his mind right for game 5
Hmm bitter pill for the Cavs, should be up 3-1 rather than down by that count.
Kudos to the Pacers, more inspired, and without any hyped up Super Star.
Indiana played sooooo much harder than the Cavs.
This series is over pacers won
Cavs Introvoys
Cavs is finished
nab bench payers are actually horrible. They all missed from point blank and can barely catch or dribble. wtf is that?
