2025 NBA Playoffs

The league also insists that the orginal Charlotte Hornets are part of the Charlotte Bobcats/Charlotte Hornets franchise rather than the New Orleans Hornets/New Orleans Pelicans despite 70 years of precedent (See Cincinnati Royals/Kansas City Kings and Buffalo Braves/San Diego Clippers for examples).

Which bugs me as an historian, but, oh well....

Well, I'm no historian myself, but that is damn weird to me nonetheless.

We're seeing something similar here with the Coyotes, which the NHL consider to be "dormant". If another franchise appears here in the near future it will probably be considered a continuation of the Coyotes.

It feels like the Pacers blew the title by losing Game 4 at home. OKC is up 59-45 here at the half in Game 5.

Yep. It looks over, especially with Haliburton dealing with a calf knock.

[Split T]

What an awesome Jalen Williams game…looking like prime Kawhi out there

[Mori Chu]

OKC now up 3-2. The Pacers almost came back despite Haliburton clearly not being 100%, but OKC held them off. I hope Indy can win Game 6 on their home floor to force it to 7; this Finals has been really fun to watch.

Good thing his ribs weren't bruised...

[Flagrant Fowl]

This great series will be ruined by Scott Foster's whistle in Game 7.

[Furlanfufi]

Is he confirmed?

[Mori Chu]

What a great win for the Pacers. Pushing this OKC team to a Game 7 is a real accomplishment. It will be hard for them to win it on the road on Sunday, but this is really all you can ask of them, giving themselves a real chance. In one game anything can happen.

Man Chet sucked,
If they had KD they would've won the trophy tonight. They should seriously consider KD for Chet

Is he confirmed?

Yes.
