I remember when Thibs was coaching the Bulls and was treated eerily similar. He guided them to their first ECF in 13 years. Not only that but those ...

Indiana has done this several times in the postseason. Now let's see if OKC can adjust accordingly

Got OKC in 6 or 7

I've been waiting for this thread. Why would you fire a coach that guided a team to its first ECF appearance in 25 years?

We're probably headed toward an OKC-Ind matchup. It's difficult to see Indy losing Games 6 and 7.

New York played its best game of the series, leading wire-to-wire. However, I think Indy closes it out tonight.

Indiana has led a good chunk of this series. And if not for the bad stretch in the latter stages of G3, this series is over already.

I remember hearing rumors about him not wanting to go to Chucago prior to the draft.

I was genuinely surprised with this deal.

@keith We will see if the defending champs can replicate their level of play and stave off elimination again.

I'm no medical expert, but those Achilles injuries seem to be difficult to return from. Since he's young, there's more than enough time to rediscover ...

Man. This sucks for Boston. It's one thing to get beaten in a series at full strength. But it's another thing when you don't have a chance to defend y...
