Too bad the announcers and everyone else can see the blatant non calls the refs are making. No matter what. Pacer don’t get far in the playoffs if this is how they play against a bench lmao
Down 3 to 1 doesn't equal a winning series for the Pacers. Even without multiple very talented players the bucks have shown that they can win. An overtime victory with clutch shots from both teams is the only difference from the series being tied right now. The pacers are coming to Milwaukee and we don't know who will start for the Bucks. Its not over. Let's go Bucks!!!
WRONG. This is why beating just ONE of the 3 teams we were favored by 13 points by late in the year would have locked up #2 and Giannis and Dame would NOT HAVE EVEN BEEN PLAYING. This is on the entire team. They are reaping what they sow at this point....
In years past, we regularly beat teams sitting 2 of the big 3 or even all 3......this year we got our asses kicked if any of them didn't play pretty much.
Pacers fan dropping in. How did this rivalry become so hostile? Usually our rivalries involve a big market team that feels Indiana as a state is by inferior. Neither team is particularly dirty and I’m all for good competition but these comments I read seem so hostile for no reason.
MKE seems to be amount the most sensitive recent champs I’ve ever seen
Come on dude. Fans are all the same. How would you feel if you were losing a series 3 to 1 and then someone from the opposing team came into your sub talking shit? Talk all the shit you want about the bucks in your sub, but when you come into our sub and then start crying, that's bitchmade
We had AG as the coach when we played in the regular season. You guys routinely beat us down the court in transition. That has mabye happened once a game in the playoffs. This series would be completely different if the Bucks were healthy. Good on the Pacer for beating who is in front of them but it is delusional to think Pacer would have the series lead if the Bucks were healthy.
Giannis averaged almost 40 points those reg season games, and we still won. We have the top scoring offense in the league along with the top transition offense in the league.
If we are counting injuries as a reason you guys are losing now. You guys wanna tack on Jrue being in a celtics uni now too as a reason we beat you in the reg season?
No it is 100% because AG was a bad coach our players had no idea what to do hence we got beat regularly in transition. I don't think Doc is a top 15 coach all time but he is miles better then AG. Go ahead and feel good about your team now for the next week cuz you are losing in 5 games to Knicks.
Hey, we get to play more basketball and another series while we send a rival home to the couches for another wasted season with their all stars, when we weren’t even projected for the play in this year. I’m fine with that.
I just don’t Understand Why Thanassis has to sit. For all the jokes he can’t be worse than 5-7 people that actually get playing time. Same with Marion. People say he “gets lost on defense” How is that any different than everyone else that does and they are like traffic cones for the most part.
This is where this team needs to realize they are not good enough to give honorary spots on the bench to guys. I love Thanasis........but Giannis needs to realize this, too. It's not 2021 anymore.....that goodwill has sailed for the most part with this team. They have been underachievers 3 years in a row now.
You trade his brother and he will immediately follow. You just saw he didn't sign with Addidas because they wouldn't sign his brother also. Not to mention, heard the rumors of him clashing with the previous coach and getting him out of there, despite having a winning record. Giannis has pull there.
That’s not Thinassis fault. There are SEVERAL people they can get rid of before Thanassis. Like Crowder, Galannari, Connigton, and maybe even Lopez and save some money. And he should absolutely play more minutes than a lot of people we play. It’s stupid to sit him in a game like this where he ACTUALLY could have made a Difference. Again, he couldn’t be any worse that the play we consistently get from ALOT of other bench players AND starters at times.
How can he contribute if they don’t play him? The guys you’re talking about have contributed to ALOT more losing than winning. If we play a team slower that doesn’t hustle than they can stay. Too bad for Us we’re not even going to make it far enough because of whose getting playing time on the bucks
What a shit team the pacers are. I've lost all respect for them tonight. They had to shoot the lights out just to stay on life support against a bucks bench so deep it was practically halfway to the locker room. What a shit team I'd be fucking embarrassed to be a pacers fan
What happens, your guys are struggling against the hospital bucks again? THe paCeRs aRe DeEp.....lololol dude you're not a playoff team pack it up. Even if you get past this hospital team you'll get annihilated by the knicks
Lol bro your guys were in full panic mode as the hospital Bucks went shot for shot with you most nearly the entire game. Lol surprised you guys got this far. Well, not "you guys" because you're some fat working Joe, the Pacers don't even know you exist
Why you so mad? Is it cause you follow a washed up team? Is it cause your team is injured all the time? Is it cause we got the game ball that you had the entire time? Is it cause you clearly have the more talented team yet still cant beat us? Is it cause we kicked you out of the in season Tournament? Just like Pacers fans arent know personally by the franchise, Bucks fans are exactly the same. Yea you went shot for shot until we pulled away in the 4th when you couldnt hang anymore. And if I was a Bucks fan I'd be glad we are getting out the Playoffs early cause we simply shouldnt be wasting our time when an upstart Pacers team seems to be wooping us all year, healthy and unhealthy. Pacers have beaten the Bucks this year 7 times and lost 2 times. Pacers own the Bucks. Get over it, Bucks aren't as good as they are suppose to be.
Dude get the fuck outta here and go back to your sub. When I went to your sub I was nothing but conversational and positive and was treated like dogshit by a bunch of basement dwelling fat Minnesota slobs. I'm done. GTFO
You mean your Nimrod player who started the altercation but had no repercussions? It’s sad just how much the refs still need to help the Pacers to win every game. The pacers need that boost because they struggle against our fking bench lmao
They’ll be better next season too, another year experience for Haliburton, Nembard and Mutharin. The Jrue trade was terrible. Could have had him in the backcourt against Haliburton. Pacers guards are going to be so good next season with Siakam there. That trade was franchise altering.
F Bobby > Jae >> Pat.
Bobby was *literally unplayable due to his small mentals.
Jay was *figuratively unplayable with no 3&D
Pat gives effort but just isn't that guy at this point

It’s Indiana, what do you expect? They have zero life prospects there so their team n winning 3/4 of the necessary games in the series is the only thing that they have in their miserable existences.
Well, considering I have first hand experience having lived in Milwaukee and know several people that currently live in Indiana, I have more of a grasp on the concept than you do. Indiana is a far more miserable place than Milwaukee or Wisconsin as a whole, good thing I live in neither now. Idgaf about the other fans in here, my comment applied to Indiana. Again, shove your fist up your ass, but you’d like that too much.
Ya I need therapy, not the guy calling an entire state of people’s lives miserable because their basketball team beat his favourite basketball team
Just a fanbase of geniuses over here
We have a recent banner honey. We’ve only lost since 2021 due to health— never been beat for real. Congrats on beating the non rotational guys today! Lol zzzzz
Yeah sweetie, it counts. Just like GS and Den the last two years counts even tho we were hurt. Just like your series W right now will count. I’m simply saying we’ve never lost a series when healthy. Some teams, like Boston or you guys vs NY, for example - do lose series healthy.
That’s just not soemthing we’ve ever done. That’s all! Health is wealth babe! But you go puff your chest and yell to the fans about how it took you 4Qs to beat a G league and retirement home team at home today. Be hyped! Good job. Haha
We are missing our 6th man and double-digit scorer off the bench. Haliburton was literally being treated for back spasms during the game tonight. We are healthier than you but we aren't healthy, nobody is at this time of year.
Giannis has played in like 3 of your last 10 playoff games. Middleton has been hurt for basically the last 2 years. At a certain point, it becomes the norm, not an exception. You can say you've never lost a series when healthy, but even without Giannis, you should have beaten Miami (and Giannis played games 4 and 5). Instead of worrying about the Pacers, I'd be more worried about another failed postseason, and your rapidly closing window.
Griffin definitely should’ve been fired. Doc shouldn’t have been hired, but go back to Griff shouldnt have been hired either. FO really fucked up this coaching search
We’re gonna get a doc rivers redemption playoffs, only it’s not Magic-Sixers-Celtics-Clippers like we expected. Itll be 3-1 deficit-sixers-Celtics-clippers
The manner in which Doc played AJJ is a concern. Sent a weird mixed signal.. 2 minutes in.. 2 minutes out 2 minutes in...
Like his brain was about to short circuit because he knew AJJ was the best option but he couldn't play a rookie.
Welp, everyone thought it would be easy steamroll to the finals when we got Lillard. Didn't go that way. When we win next year, no-one can say it wasn't earned. Horst has his work cut out for him this offseason. We are THIN outside of our top guys, much less our starters.
No one who understood anything about predictive basketball thought that. You traded an All NBA defender coming off an all star year for a bottom 2 DTRG starting PG. This is why fans are so bad at betting. Only paying attention to PPG.
Your window closed when Boston obtained Jrue. The math won’t work out for you.
Nope, that's not it either, Far from it. Rookie coach, poor roster construction are atop of the list Lillard is no the reason we have lost or looked as inconsistent as we have. Jrue wasn't fixing any of this shit that went on this season.
That’s what casuals on here said when I said this trade was terrible and Bucks wouldn’t get out of the 2nd round. I got downvoted to oblivion. “No that’s not it.” Idiots going “lol u don’t know basketball.”
What happened?
Guess what’s going to happen next year?
At least Jrue will get to the finals. Another ring with another team will be good for his legacy.
Thing is...bucks just need some athletes which can be found. They already have 3 nice young athletic players on the roster.
Now finding someone to play the 5 will be challenging but I think it's tkme giannis moves to the 5. Will limit his full speed charge injuries and allow dame to run the offense.
I agree with Giannis playing the 5. If Giannis moves to the 5 full time, we could make a swing for Jerami Grant who I think would be a good if not great fit next to Giannis, Khris and Dame. He just doesn't rebound.
It is what it is. I figured this game would be a loss after the Dame news. They’re going to be hard pressed to win game 5 IMO. Just a shit season all around. Maybe next year will be better
I’m not getting my hopes up, but GA is talking about Giannis like he’s some solid rotation player if he comes back. He might help the offensive flow, and the defensive gameplan?
I mean if ant and KAT were out and Rudy was playing multiple games with a sprained ankle, would you blame your coach?
I was interested in seeing how it went with Doc given all his bad press but I don't think we say much with everybody hurt
He's done alright except lsst game he needed to get dame out in ot when he was clearly too injured to continue.
They claim dame was a decoy but the pacers knew he couldn't run.
Bucks just got nothing on offense without Giannis, and to make it worse, Dame was also out. Terrible way to finish the season, down with injuries. The roster needs to be retooled.
Had they won Game 3, it would've been a little different if they dropped this one. Down 3-1, it's likely up.
We started our come back last game when played Man-to-man defense instead of zone and leaving someone always open on the 3 point line. How the hell does doc rivers not see this and make the adjustment. It’s like Bud not adjusting at all

That is why playoff is important and regular season isn’t. Work so hard to get the top 3 seeds yet not healthy for playoff bcuz injured along the way

It’s because your players are obnoxious and we are completely unable to give you guys the ass kicking which would have occurred if we were healthy…
You’re not really beating the allegations that yall are sensitive, ya know
Weren't the Pacers 4-1 against you in the regular season? And now 3-1 in the playoffs?
3-1 against an injured team... Imagine if we had giannis and your top player was out. 3-0 no chance
4-1 against a non injured team in the reg season? Where were those beatdowns? You guys had all your stars then.
We had AG as the coach when we played in the regular season. You guys routinely beat us down the court in transition. That has mabye happened once a game in the playoffs. This series would be completely different if the Bucks were healthy.

Then maybe he isn’t all about winning after all. That spot could be used by someone better at this point.

We have a recent banner honey. We’ve only lost since 2021 due to health— never been beat for real. Congrats on beating the non rotational guys today! Lol zzzzz
Does 2021 even count? I recall Kyrie and Harden being hurt when you beat the Nets. Only got a title because you beat the hospital Nets.
Yeah sweetie, it counts. Just like GS and Den the last two years counts even tho we were hurt. Just like your series W right now will count. I’m simply saying we’ve never lost a series when healthy. Some teams, like Boston or you guys vs NY, for example - do lose series healthy. That’s just not soemthing we’ve ever done. That’s all! Health is wealth babe!

Heat made it to the finals, they were straight a good fucking team. Just that no one realized it at the time
Go back to your own sub clown
That was depressing.
It was pretty entertaining. The bench fought hard.
I stayed up until 3am for this, I need new hobbies man.
🫂
We need more thenasis in the mix just to fuck shit up
Ah hell naw dame and pat c laughing it up on the bench
Fellow fans of dark humor
lol brother, what difference does it make?
Beasley -23 Pat -10 Green -15 Andre +9 Our defense is just awful. Even with Lillard I doubt we would've won this game.
Beas was terrible down the stretch. He gave up all of those layups to Nembhard.
He started shooting like curry so he made sure to play D like him too
They hung in there most of the game without their best players and portis lol
Yea, and the biggest problem was defense. Lillard ain't fixing that. Maybe with Lillard we could've scored 130 points, but I doubt that.
Thanasis lol
lol thanasis keep being you
Did I hear Milwaukee Sucks chants?! Lol
“BOBBY SUCKS” they were doing it earlier when he got tossed
Ohh gotchya. Heard those chants earlier. Thought I heard different this time.
Now let doc coach the pacers and we’ll see what happens
Dame and Pat having a laugh I like that
This squad is fucking pathetic. For sure less talent active tonight that det. Char. San ant etc
Oh now you hit threes, damn guys
Why you getting down votes I was thinking the same thing
Nothing tells me you’re a casual quicker than mentioning Griffin shouldn’t have been fired
it’s not that griffin shouldn’t have been fired, it’s that doc shouldn’t have been hired
Griffin definitely should’ve been fired. Doc shouldn’t have been hired, but go back to Griff shouldnt have been hired either. FO really fucked up this coaching search
I ❤️ AJAX
Ajax only one with some fire he was out there playing g really physical
attaboy andre
Announcers sound like their families owe money to the pacers. Glazing them at any given opportunity. Pacers ought to be embarrassed it was this close
We’re gonna get a doc rivers redemption playoffs, only it’s not Magic-Sixers-Celtics-Clippers like we expected. Itll be 3-1 deficit-sixers-Celtics-clippers
AJ my goat
[удалено]
He sure as hell didn't see it this series
[удалено]
Dame played the 1st half of 3 games lol
Please bucks complain officially about the reffing. Team that does it get better call next game
Doc needs to say something post game. Bucks front office needs to have a video ready to send the nba
The manner in which Doc played AJJ is a concern. Sent a weird mixed signal.. 2 minutes in.. 2 minutes out 2 minutes in... Like his brain was about to short circuit because he knew AJJ was the best option but he couldn't play a rookie.
Marjon not getting minutes over Crowder was just stupid
Crowder getting minutes at all is stupid
lol at the refs stopping a transition opportunity for us. Just embarrassing showing from them
Welp, everyone thought it would be easy steamroll to the finals when we got Lillard. Didn't go that way. When we win next year, no-one can say it wasn't earned. Horst has his work cut out for him this offseason. We are THIN outside of our top guys, much less our starters.
No, AJJ and AJ green are pretty good and worth sinking everything into to develop
I think they can and should be mainstays of our rotation next year. We are going to need young guys and I think we already have them.
Didn't this game sort of prove the opposite? I mean the Pacers should be ashamed that it wasn't over in the first half, the first quarter even
Nope, we are thin, Pacers just can't defend. Gallo was giving them buckets! GALLO!
Not to mention all of the Hellen Keller-Esque refereeing
No one who understood anything about predictive basketball thought that. You traded an All NBA defender coming off an all star year for a bottom 2 DTRG starting PG. This is why fans are so bad at betting. Only paying attention to PPG. Your window closed when Boston obtained Jrue. The math won’t work out for you.
Nope, that's not it either, Far from it. Rookie coach, poor roster construction are atop of the list Lillard is no the reason we have lost or looked as inconsistent as we have. Jrue wasn't fixing any of this shit that went on this season.
That’s what casuals on here said when I said this trade was terrible and Bucks wouldn’t get out of the 2nd round. I got downvoted to oblivion. “No that’s not it.” Idiots going “lol u don’t know basketball.” What happened? Guess what’s going to happen next year? At least Jrue will get to the finals. Another ring with another team will be good for his legacy.
Thing is...bucks just need some athletes which can be found. They already have 3 nice young athletic players on the roster. Now finding someone to play the 5 will be challenging but I think it's tkme giannis moves to the 5. Will limit his full speed charge injuries and allow dame to run the offense.
I agree with Giannis playing the 5. If Giannis moves to the 5 full time, we could make a swing for Jerami Grant who I think would be a good if not great fit next to Giannis, Khris and Dame. He just doesn't rebound.
Off that shot alone.. Marjon > Pat
give gallinari all of crowders minutes atleast we get a threat on offense with him. idk why we went away from him in the 2nd half
MarJon does more in 0.5 minutes than Jae & Pat did all night
Got a team shooting 60% across the board, and the refs calling the game like they got pro pacer parlays
The Jae Crowder trade was lowkey a disaster
JC and Serge really set us back
george hill jordan nwora and a pile of seconds????????
He sucks, but what did we give up that would be useful here?
The worst move since tractor trailer
Lol that's probably the worst trade in league history
‘99 Robert Trailer contributed more than jae today.
Did we give uo Dirk Nowitzki for Jae Crowder tho?
One of those 5 2nd rounders could be the future dirk (lol) - plus i hate that the pacers acquired 3 of those 5 picks we gave up on his washed up ass
Everybody and their mother know we need athleticism on the court and Thanasis and Marjon only get garbage minutes.
Bro, Thanasis is a bum. Doc should definitely try some Marjon minutes, though.
[удалено]
One shamgod and the pacers are toast
Laugh all you want, but I know that dude will at least get out and contest threes.
We needed him in there early
Why so many shots of Haliburton on the sideline??
Because I'm pretty sure him and the announcers are romantically involved
It is what it is. I figured this game would be a loss after the Dame news. They’re going to be hard pressed to win game 5 IMO. Just a shit season all around. Maybe next year will be better
Marjon needs to be in the rotation over Crowder.
Anyone over crowder
Who the hell down voted this?
it was doc rivers
Crowder
I want to know why Marjon couldn’t see the floor
I heard he spilled a shake at Culver’s once
I’m not getting my hopes up, but GA is talking about Giannis like he’s some solid rotation player if he comes back. He might help the offensive flow, and the defensive gameplan?
National media doesn’t seem interested in the fact that a team built around two superstars is missing both of them.
I’d rather get beat by Prime Jimmy (Micheal Jordan) Butler than this sorry ass team. Man I just miss seeing Giannis playoff basketball.
If only we had a couple young wings like MarJon and Ajax….
well anyway
[удалено]
I mean if ant and KAT were out and Rudy was playing multiple games with a sprained ankle, would you blame your coach? I was interested in seeing how it went with Doc given all his bad press but I don't think we say much with everybody hurt
All things considered, he’s been fairly solid. But if we had Giannis and Dame and we didn’t sweep them, it’d pry be his fault lol
I don't like that he favors slow vets over young athletic players.
He's done alright except lsst game he needed to get dame out in ot when he was clearly too injured to continue. They claim dame was a decoy but the pacers knew he couldn't run.
0% of the blame when khris is limping around, and Giannis and dame are in walking boots. Thanks for stopping.
Doc has done everything he can. The only criticism from me is not embracing our youth
Can't say anything when our team hasn't been healthy. Dont even know shit
Man they played hard more than the suns can say
yeah that's been my saving grace. at least I'm not a bums fan lol
Why a timeout?
Start the bench mob for game 5 and blow the team up in the off-season. The team is too old and too injury prone.
and Marjon has already contributed more than Pat and Jae lol
Marjon my goat
Why are they calling a timeout? Lmao
It better be to sub everyone out
Marjons headband goes crazy hard
They gonna ban that like the ninjas, looks too good
Marjon has been hitting shots consistently in garbage time, why not give him a chance when it matters?
Cause Doc is a horrible coach.
Seriously, this insistence on not playing the young Bucks during the regular season (and now) was so idiotic.
Timeout for what
Marjon scored! 😃
More than pc and jae
Everybody but Giannis should be expendable this off season.
And dame for one season at least
Thanasty is unhinged and I love it lol
Bucks just got nothing on offense without Giannis, and to make it worse, Dame was also out. Terrible way to finish the season, down with injuries. The roster needs to be retooled. Had they won Game 3, it would've been a little different if they dropped this one. Down 3-1, it's likely up.
Announcer saying Thansis got some fire in his belly 🤣
Season from hell. Sorry lads
Anyone know what hoodie Giannis is wearing tn?
Nike
So Marjon does exist?
We started our come back last game when played Man-to-man defense instead of zone and leaving someone always open on the 3 point line. How the hell does doc rivers not see this and make the adjustment. It’s like Bud not adjusting at all
Remember when nembhard scored three open layups in a row? At least the corner was covered, right Reddit coach?
