Knicks look exhausted, Pacers cant miss anything, & OG hasnt came back after playing the first 5 mins
Alec Burks is looking like the Burks we're used to seeing play against us though

I wonder if Indiana will be similar to the Atlanta situation from a few years ago. Make the ECF real early, believe the team is set, then end up regressing.

TJ would very easily be the starting point guard on this team.

Same thoughts as me. They need a quality backup big for starters.
Thr big boys of the East like PHI MIL ORL can punish their big men not to mention the West.
They really are lucky facing a depleted MIL and NY

Umm yea standing pat this off season could seriously backfire! If you don’t think that Philly, Miami, and now New York aren’t going to retool and/or try to add some serious piece you’re kidding yourself.

Its gonna be an arms race in the ECF!!!!
With what we just saw wherein injuries decimated contenders and enabled dark horses like IND and ORL to over achieve, the ECF is gonna reload hard.
We better arm up as well. Cant rely on internal growth alone.

Naz Reid might’ve just given Minnesota the game with a 5 point swing to put them up 10, 3 minutes to go. He just had a block on Jokic, a huge putback dunk, then an assist to Ant for 3. Huge!

Re: NBA Playoffs Thread (non-Magic games discussion)
First time since 1977 that we won't have an MVP or finals MVP in the finals. Is that true?
