The Fever and The Pacers: Really Fun to Watch

[thedukeofearl]

Usually don't watch the NBA playoffs if the Warriors are out, but have been watching the Pacers

And they are really fun to watch, Tyrese Halliburton is Really good and despite his Clone history
because of his friendship and loyalty to Caitlin I have been watching the Paces in the playoffs

The first Championship game in Oklahoma was a classic, Pacers were behind by 10/15 points the entire
game

But I kept watching anyway, they were behind 15 points int he 4th Quarter and cut it to 2 points with 27
seconds left in the game

Thunder missed with 9.7 seconds left in the game

BOOM with 3 seconds left Halliburton bounces a three in for the WIN

The thunder fans were completely stunned

Tyrese Haliburton STUNS OKC! Game-Winner with 0.3 Seconds Left in Game 1 2025 NBA Finals

Kinda cool to see them at the games

For sure. It's great team basketball. Halliburton is amazing. So clutch.

I don't watch a ton of Regular Season NBA, but I keep tabs on the playoffs. The Thunder are legit. I am trying to get more into the NBA as I like the parity. But, I maintain that the NBA's biggest problem is not forcing kids to stay in school 3 years so that I get to know these kids through college hoops and then want to follow them in the NBA. With House and NIL, these kids can stay in college and make good money. Build up name recognition, and then make us want to follow them in the NBA. Sure seemed like a good move for CC. I never watched a WNBA game before last year. Now I do regularly.

The Thunder are perhaps the best Team in a while

Their D is relentless are very powerful on offense

The Gorgeous One is the goods

Hope the Pacers can come back at home

This is usually the last sport I watch until Football starts

Olympics and the Men and Women's World Cup if the USA is a contender

The WNBA is worth a watch. They play team basketball and there are a lot of fun personalities. As much as Angel Reece takes a beating online from the CC faithful, she is good for the league. Every story needs a villain. The Fever are run to watch, even without Clark. I try to keep track of Kate Martin too. She is doing well.

I watched Kate last week and she had an outstanding floor game and was
nailing threes and making layups

Looking good

Watched the Fever on Sunday and they looked very good, well coached and outstanding
team play

Gonna make my Summer fun watching the Fever with Caitlin with a very nice supporting
cast

I like watching the Pacers, but the TV ratings are awful. Not that I care....but it is interesting to consider if Indiana's WNBA team makes the finals, will the ratings for that series surpass the NBA finals?

That is absolutely wild to consider.

Well, the last numbers I saw had 8 million or so watching the NBA Finals.

18 million people tuned into the NCAA Finals to watch CC. So, if the Fever make the finals, which the WNBA should absolutely rig and make happen , I think it is a near lock that the WNBA will have more viewers for its finals than the NBA. Yowza.

Shot across the bow, boys. Make some changes to your style of play and create some interesting characters for us to follow!!! The NBA is sleepy.

I've said for years that they play way too many games. No way they cut the schedule at this point, but think of how much better of a product they'd have if they only played 50-60 games?

I watched the second half of game 3 last night, it was interesting.

CC and teammates were, of course, courtside.

Both teams were playing really hard, well coached, young, athletic, the D was outstanding on both sides. Pacers won as they were able to hit the key shots down the stretch.

I personally think the super max contracts are killing the NBA.

As I noted above, my problem with the NBA is that I am not hardcore, and so I don't know the players well. Unless Steph or Lebron or Joker are in the finals, I turn on the game and I don't know a damn guy out there because hardly any of them played college ball in the US.

With the WNBA, and because of CC the last few years, I watched a lot of NCAA WB and saw the LSU and South Carolina and UCONN women's teams and I know a lot of players now in the WNBA.

The NBA is filled with European and one and done or none and done. They are not building their product out in the right way.

Look at the NFL. We know nearly all of the stars getting drafted because we watch them on TV on Saturday for 2-3 years.

The NBA may have too many teams and play too many games.

I think it helps that the WNBA only has 13 (soon to be 16) teams and only plays 44 regular season games and only has 12 players per team. Prracticully anybody who regularly starts for a WNBA team is one of the 50 best players in the world.

I really wish an ISU player wasn't having the run Halliburton is but besides a couple clunkers he's had about as clutch of a playoff run as a players had. Has Indiana in the drivers seat to win this thing. Up 2-1 after flipping home court advantage. Doesn't mean they will as they were pretty big under dogs going into this but hey who knows. They've made it interesting that's for sure.

I'd seen the W has lost 50% of their viewership since Clark got hurt. That's pretty wild. Not of just Fever games but league wide... That's tough to comprehend I'm not sure how to contextualize such a thing. They better hope she comes back soon and stays healthy. She's a one woman economy. Too bad Nike doesn't realize that
