Crazy 4th quarter (and OT) with Knicks and Pacers yesterday. Nesmith just destroyed them with the 3 pointers.

He may be annoying but the stats in these vids are pretty impressive from a Jokic standpoint

I grew up in Indiana as a Pacers fan and was watching the game. At about that 3-minute left mark, I was thinking they'd probably lose but decided to watch the rest anyway. I couldn't believe the bounce on that shot from Haliburton at the end of the 4th!
Maybe because they beat us in game 7, but I am hating on OKC. They flop and draw fouls like crazy.
Not looking good for the Timberwolves...
Agreed, but unfortunately OKC is likely the "best" team of anyone remaining (even if they do it ugly).

By far OKC has the most depth and talent of any team.
The T wolves think they can win with the 3 ball, it's not going to happen.
I didn't get to see any of it, but the T Wolves came back with a vengeance against OKC. At this point I'm rooting for a Timberwolves/Pacers championship
We were at dinner and couldnt listen to it, but i was happy to see the gap keep getting larger every few minutes

Can’t stand Edwards so I’m still rooting against them. I doubt they keep that up.

Agree 100%, rarely disagree with Barkley. I've seen too many teams down a few points, start chucking 3's and then get in such a hole that they can't recover. It should be a last resort, not something they try with plenty of time on the shot clock.

The three is definitely hurting the already damaged basketball product. I'd like to see our kids leagues abandon counting threes as anything more than two points.
You include basketball but not ice hockey*....absolutely shameful...
With that said, my interest in watching our US football has waned over the years, some due to the players (same reason I lost interest in basketball), some due to the league and some due to the game itself (I actually find rugby football more interesting nowadays, and it's brutal!). Regardless, if you like football and physics, you might just like this...
I recommend a sub to Veritasium if you like this kind of thing, it's good for those times when you feel the need to suckle up the nerd teat for a while and expand your mind...
*The Panther's look determined, but here's hoping the Oilers send the cats home with their tails clipped this year. I'll be surprised if it isn't a good series, regardless of the outcome.

That’s because hockey is almost as boring as soccer. Neither count.
Funny, that's about where I'm at with football and baseball at this point.
I would submit that if you think ice hockey is boring, you've either never seen it (or haven't seen it in a very long time, many decades) or have no idea what was happening if you did, which is fine. But it certainly isn't boring. Probably the fastest and most violent professional sport out there, and the skills, talent and speed of the younger players is nothing short of impressive.
But no worries, I've been shown the door, this is not my place. I'll let you boys get back to playing with your balls.
For the record, I think pro soccer players are pussies and amazing actors, but probably some of the fittest pro athletes out there. Basketball players are up there as well for all around fitness.
Also there's no 'ball' in hockey. So the thread title would have to be changed.
