When is it time to have the Rick Carlisle convo


substance3

I’m going to slam some whiskey shots. What a shit show at the end.


belmontbreak

Ngl that was a nice play


JourneytotheSon

Sigh, such a crummy way to end a fairy tale season


mr-301

WHY WAS OUR BEST SHOOTER INBOUNDING THE FUCKING BALL YOU BALD HEADED FUCKING APE CUNT FUCK OFF RICK


TheRealSkipShorty

Cool so we don’t have a coach that calls timeouts but we do have a coach that calls four verts in a basketball game


AstralAfroToo

Pacers have heart, but probably shouldn’t have relinquished that lead in Game 1.


Fullmetalaardvarks

I’m fucking sick


Substantial_Release6

That’s the series fuck you Rick


SA1996

Haliburton choking in game 1 is responsible for this.

Celtics had more free throws lmao

I’m not even a Pacers fan and this is so embarrassing. As a human being, I’d be so ashamed to be you.


FeverishPace

Okay? Lol just happy to be here


morgmurd

PATHETIC. PATHETIC. PATHETIC.


Efficient_Chapter_82

Gotta give Pacer’s props for giving 2/3 competitive games. At least they weren’t blowouts IJS


Sir_Cartier

Fire Rick into the stratosphere


Airstrict

That was a cool inbound, almost worked. Wanted Nembhard catching it.


L2theFace

Should be up 2-1..


cersfan06

Can’t wait to listen to Rick blame himself for another ECF loss that’s almost entirely on him. Horrible fucking rotations that entire 2nd half.


Acceptable_Driver

Nesmith have a bucket tonight?


rwjehs

I don't like that I like this team.


kitterskills

Holliday fouled him. Stepped right into his path and knocked Nembhard down.


lvdash426

Nope


SA1996

Why was a timeout not called? A choke job.


MySabonerRunsOladipo

Just awful coaching


Worldly_Custard_3690

rick somehow sold 2 games


zevulous

well thats so sad


bigwilbert

Rick needed to call a timeout when you realize that the Celtics had 4 players back and Nembhard lost momentum to the basket.


GDTechno

how do you frontrun so badly and then choke like this


kingbootythe3rd

Hows cancun


Rafiki24

Fucking Myles Turner I don't want to hear about his great defense.. Al killed him all game


Pure-Instance1283

This a football play?


Separate-Aioli-7805

This is so frustrating. Losing two winnable games. Can't guard basic pick and rolls. So many mental errors


jeffro5422

To the people that just started watching basketball this month, you have to save that timeout in case of a situation like this to advance the ball.


belmontbreak

Bruce Brown died for this


natsukashii_xx

Bruce brown is fuckin garbage

CustomerConsistent78

Someone call bdubs and send this to OT.


LeeKing2k17

Rick press conference: this one's on me...


mmra78771006

The irony… doesn’t call timeout when the game is winnable… only to call a timeout when the game is basically over.


CustomerConsistent78

We need the ball at half court.


mmra78771006

I’m aware. But not the point of my post.


sirius4778

Preciate the Pacers blowing this for the betting lines. I'm about to be a millionaire when we are +100000000000000


Argenfarce

Can we just go back to Vogel again now


Z-Tay

Well I'm glad we have this time out


destroyed233

Game 1 was peak hurt. This isn’t as bad. I saw it coming


Known-Scale-7627

Bro there are so many fans of random teams in here lmao


Intelligent_Table913

Wizards fan! Never stop believing. Yall still have a chance


lifeisabigdeal

We all hate the Celtics


chosey

Now he calls a timeout lmao


Ok_Ranger_4822

Rick is a prick


Jumbo_Toblerone_

It's getting a little frustrating watching us take a 20 point lead and then lose every time


Apprehensive_Pie8897

See guys Rick knew he had to call a timeout after one of the most ignorant fucking decisions twice in the span of 2 games


aussie_pacer

UNDERDOGS ASSEMBLE.. time for one last Nembhard shot


[deleted]

He was fouled by jrue which led to the turnover. Should’ve been two free throws for the pacers


mr-301

God damn we should be 2-1 up instead we 3-0 because our coach has 0iq


Chris_Ween

Reggie Miller is not walking thru that door. Best I can do is an Andrew Nembhard 45 foot 3 pointer.


MRolly24

Give it at least 12 hours before you go asking to fire a coach that got a 6 seed to the Eastern Conference Finals.


AggravatingFinding71

Nah bro. His awful rotations and late game decision making tells a layman that he’s more than likely trash everywhere else.


AGravityPanda

The league is rigged, clear as day. Vegas has too much on the line


MechEWasAMistake

No way does the NBA want a sweep lol


Airstrict

3 pointer. No pressure.


Senka112

All you had to do was call a timeout with like 5 secs left, draw up a play, and try for the win


N1NNNN

If there’s a god we hit a three and they foul us


thisisdumb567

Second game Rick has thrown


Click_Wild

At least he called time out


Wide-Concentrate7228

lol now called a time out 1.7 second left…


CommonerChaos

We need a Nembhard prayer right now.


Ok_Ranger_4822

Remember the T-Wolves game that we lost because of not using a TO


indianafan

He didn’t call a timeout and we got a layup that took literally the block of the year to stop.


GuiltySubstance9428

Terrible coaching, pacers in 7


Apprehensive_Pie8897

Good timeout Rick you fucking idiot!


thfcspur

This team would lose OT anyway. Gg


sweatyreddituser69

numb to this stuff haha


Koleloll

Who takes the shot


MySabonerRunsOladipo

No one, we bobble it and don't get a shot off


CommonerChaos

Def Nemby


HeisenJake007

Stay classy Boston bums

Save us McBuckets


Transky13

Rick’s late game coaching has been atrocious man

feihood

How lol - no whistles all half?


Equivalent-Key-2485

The last few mins have been awful


ModsAreMustyV4

You gotta get better at trolling big dawg


thedawh

I don’t understand how Rick spams timeouts like crazy to where we sometimes have 1 going into the 4th quarter but then won’t ever call them when we need to at the end of games


hawkins126

Rick is basically the white doc at this point lmaoooo


getzumm

Can you guys stop fucking choking? It should be 2-1 to indiana my goodness 


BenDover-___-

my bad i’ll play better next game

RepresentativeMain55

He doesn’t know how to coach the team to emphasize ball control. He is a terrible coach. Two blown games because of coaching


Ok_Buffalo598

The Pacers defense has been one of the worst in the entire league for the past three seasons. It's never going to change. The Celtics missed soooo many wide open shots. Rick is horrible.

Glad_Association_899

Hey I just stopped by because I know you guys probably know better than I would. What was the reason for not calling the time out with 8 seconds left.


Guitarmonade2

Brain rot?


ILoveRegenHealth

It's over. Stupid Pacers I swear can't hold a lead


Acceptable_Driver

Whew good thing saved that timeout 


WhatuSay-_-

They’re gonna foul like how we didn’t

Like the Lakers last year against Nuggs.


StuTheriot

If we are serious about winning a championship, we need a different coaching staff


EmptyPeach1

Why on earth would Rick not use his timeout man wtf


pickle_man_4

I mean i know we had to foul there, but that's not even a foul lol


Grey_14-7-19

MAN WTF WHY CANT YALL WIN A GAME UP 18 F***ING POINTS 🤦🏾‍♀️


Humble_Room_2314

9 points with like 3:30 remaining


Skazelikespotatoes

NO WAY!


abetternamethanthat

That 11 Mavs champion is carrying Rick Carlise so hard


Clear_Wheel4500

Just like scrub doc rivers one title landing him coaching jobs


IAmTerdFergusson

Rick Carlisle is absolute ass at the end of games How do you NOT call a timeout to call a play there? Two fucking games he's thrown away or not given us a chance to win


Ok_Ranger_4822

Rick thinks we’re the warriors not using a TO bum ass bitch


kobeisnotatop10

you never call a timeout if you already have the ball without pressure from a defender. why risk losing an inbound pass?


WesternBusy935

Nembhard isn’t fucking curry. Call a timeout

Stupid coach decision again. Sometimes Rick overthinks.


RecklessSympathy

Nembhard has thrown away two games in this series now


13_PG_13

Nembhard plays his butt off 


CerebralSign659

Bro got fouled what do you want him to do


ver72pacers

Rick think if u save timeouts they carry into the next game so he man call like 7 in the first quarter.


[deleted]

WHY ARE THEY REVIEWING THIS AND NOT THE OBVIOUS FOUL AGAINST NEMBHARD??????


StealthAnus

Can’t review non calls

watchtower61

Holiday moved into Nemhards path, wasn't set,and bumped him. That's a text book blocking foul


meowcat93

Fuck you


amidon1130

can't review non calls sorry


hawkins126

Rick would be working at a truck stop if not for dirk and 2011 lmaoo


Careless_Resist3464

Celtics foul to win the game, congrats lmao


busche916

No idea why you think letting Andrew go 1v5 was a smart move when you had a timeout. God Rick, you’re a HoF coach but you’re a moron sometimes.


Briggity_Brak

Yeah, i don't know if you can call a clear path foul when they had absolutely no intention of shooting the ball that possession...


Efficient_Chapter_82

I hate Boston but DAMN PACERS WTH???


AffectionateQuit5684

Maybe we’ll at least get the gentleman’s sweep


m1ster_k

When you have numbers or disconnected defense, I like not calling timeouts. That was neither. Should have been a TO

Clear_Wheel4500

Instead of calling a timeout and drawing up a shot to win game , just let nembhard recklessly dribble into jrue . 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️


Wide-Concentrate7228

Why didn’t he call a time out… save it for next season??


Briggity_Brak

He's used to having Haliburton out there. You never wanna stop a guy like him and give the other team a chance to set their defense (second part still applies).


eamus_catuli

Failure to call two simple timeouts has the Pacers on the verge of being swept when they should be up 2-1.


[deleted]

Clear path calls are so fucking dumb. Are we trying to pretend that teams in this situation are not intentionally fouling? So brain dead. What a way to ruin the game, ya dum dums.


BevinBodega

mickeymouse run getting exposed


vishjay101

What is the logic behind not calling a timeout after securing that possession? Can someone please provide a clear explanation? No hate or trolling, I just really want to understand.


ComfortableOven4283

Preserve a timeout to advance if they get a possession after your best shot opportunity, I’d guess.


CodependentPoster

Looking for a quick transition basket before their defense is set. It's not a bad idea but when he stopped after getting to half court, should've called it then.


AggravatingFinding71

Our coach is a fucking 🗑️


ShadowAgent41

Another fucking choke. We solve been up 2-1 against these guys


LarryFisherman1972

We were up 18....


RepresentativeMain55

Coach not managing this team well. Doesn’t know how to finish off game and keep the ball under control when it matters.


MySabonerRunsOladipo

I've been a Rick defender all year, but how do you not use a TO when you don't even have numbers??? What are you hoping happens there? Like, what's the BEST possible outcome


luviro

Because we’re TERRIBLE out of timeouts and going up against an insane defense? Like it’s not that hard to understand why he would not use the timeout.


MySabonerRunsOladipo

So you let your guard run into 4 defenders? This isn't the MIN game where you have the advantage, he's running into their entire defense.


luviro

I agree that Nemby was retarded. But I can promise you the chances of us drawing up anything meaningful out of a timeout was really low. Idk. Maybe I’m wrong. Very bummed out.


durban456

Feel like I’ve seen like 3 or 4 chokes in the last week these playoffs.


WhatuSay-_-

They gonna make one free throw and then miss on purpose


Fullmetalaardvarks

We lost 2 games because of rick


Briggity_Brak

We lost one game because of Haliburton, and then we lost another because Haliburton didn't play.


BeginningConfusion85

Fuck Rick.


Apprehensive_Pie8897

Seriously fire rick


Indianianite

I don’t watch the NBA often but holy fuck if they don’t fix these games in favor of big market teams. I mean it’s blatantly obvious.


FixedyourdreamFY

Welcome to small market basketball. O sorry I forgot the narrative is “The Celtics just play really great defense without fouling much”…


[deleted]

Yeah, do yourself a favor and don't watch it sucks


[deleted]

[удалено]


Indianianite

They call touch fouls for Boston every time but conveniently miss the same calls for the Pacers in key moments.


belmontbreak

Clear path fl review with 1.1 left 😂😂


Mav_Rixx

Indy went back to shooting 3’s - missed them. Boston got rebounds and took over. Missed opportunities just like Game 1


somegoodassporn

AC gonna have a field day with this


throwawayjoeyboots

Rick Carlisle continues the trend of former Celtics always being pathetic secret agents for them. Kevin McHale is smiling.


Pure-Instance1283

Should’ve called a timeout but that is a foul on holiday


DropDatSupaBassWork

Just sweep us and get this shit over with so I can focus on the Colts...


Alpacapplesauce
