It's now being called the play that changed the game. I disagree. Yes, timeouts can break momentum or create new ones. They're good for 8-10 point runs. But a run of 30 points, or not allowing a bucket for nearly a quarter? That's not just because of one timeout. But I hope the Pacers continue to believe that it was simply that timeout, because that's oversimplification and hopefully distracts them mentally from preparing for the next game.

It was a terrible call that had me lmao before it was overturned. Kidd NEVER had possession of the ball and the lead ref was right to overturn it.

What changed the game was Shump and Kidd playing like Jedi Knights on the defense. Felton also was his usual pit bull self out there along with Kenyon badazz Martin bullying the competition.

the fact that you can't even have an unrelated thread without some tool here bringing him up make me think that rational minds are few and far between. Bunch of emotionally weak, angst riddled people. I mean, how many times can you argue the same shyt

One can only hope Coach Frank does not abandon his Hibbert Zone methodology. I like listening to "Melo pulls up from 18, good!" "Felton around a screen- it's good!" "Shump from 20 feet - he hits it!" "Prigioni from 11 - it's good!"

That's why Sheed would have been perfect for this series since he could punish Hibbert for sagging down low. Which is why the non-use of Camby is still a puzzle, because Camby can hit a midrange jumper better than KMart or Tyson or finish on a lob or clean up the boards if Hibbert reacts to a drive.

Yeah I'd say nobody understands why he did that. It is quite the coincidence that the game literally changed after that point

I hope Vogel does that for the rest of the series!

Whatever adjustments he made with the lead, sure helped us out.
