00:00The Pacers win and cover, 123-115, 2-0 series lead for the Pacers,
00:07the team, of course, that played in the Eastern Conference Finals a season ago.
00:11Maybe we should be putting some more respect on the Pacers' name.
00:17Yeah, at least over the Bucs at this point, right?
00:19You take a look at Giannis, played his 40 minutes last night, 14 of 20 from the floor,
00:22ended up with 34 points.
00:24Bobby Portis comes off the bench, 11 of 19 from the floor,
00:27which included 6 of 11 from three-point range.
00:3012 rebounds and 28 points, and you still got beat.
00:32And you might look at that final score, it was in the A,
00:34and yes, the game was a little bit closer in the fourth quarter,
00:36but the Pacers were the better team all the way through game number one
00:39and all the way through game number two.
00:40Now, Damian Lillard's going to work his way back in the form,
00:43but what is that going to matter if they're down, let's just say, 3-1,
00:46heading back to Indianapolis at that point?
00:48I don't think it's going to help them all that much.
00:49I'm impressed with the way the Pacers are coming at, handling their business,
00:53and talking the trash behind it, because it looks like it's a great rivalry so far.
00:56The one thing I always get a kick out of, too,
00:58and sometimes, like the NFL will point it out, like the optics of the game,
01:02where they don't like it to be embarrassing.
01:03And the reason I bring that up is we talk about, like, the tush-push,
01:06where Frankie Louvoo was jumping over the pile in the NFC Championship game.
01:09The NFL's like, look, this play could work,
01:10but we don't want this play to become a mockery,
01:12and maybe we have to change some rules, which you're going to talk about now.
01:15The reason I bring this up is the NBA can't like that Giannis goes to the free-throw line,
01:19and in the playoffs, respectively, everybody's going to count.
01:22And he's over the count every single time,
01:25and there's never a foul occurrence on Giannis to take away the free-throw at this point.
01:30I do get a kick out of that, but again, Giannis at the free-throw line, 6-10,
01:33you'll probably take that.
01:34Put it this way, the Bucs just aren't as good as what they should be on paper,
01:38and it hasn't translated at all this season,
01:40and it's showing up again in the playoffs.
01:42The Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the Bucs just aren't as good as the
