Props to Paul George and Myles Turner, they played a hell of a game.

Y'all so confident we're gonna sweep Indiana when we're actually about to drop Game 1.

If we can't steamroll these guys we're not sniffing the Finals.

It's the playoffs man....Win by 1, lose by 50.....doesn't matter till you get those 4 losses...

They are straight disrespecting Lance's offense, lol

I agree with Van Gundy. I was not a fan of the timeout with 20 seconds left especially since Paul George already had the ball.

Great decision doubling George there at the end. He would have made everything in that situation, so this was their only chance still winning this game.

That was a good start to theses playoffs.

Especially when that's what they did out of the timeout.

But Bird wanted McMillan.

I'll never not be the most nervous dude ever in the playoffs. I didn't even see Kyrie's 3 until a half hour after Game 7 because I got so nervous.

I watched the 4th quarter and overtimes of their last regular season matchup and I had similar thoughts on McMillan timeouts in that one. They waste a timeout to do nothing special.

FWIW: I was a big fan of Vogel.

Great game to start though...hopefully they are all this good- that game 1 is the best opportunity to steal..

When they doubled PG, he missed Lance wide open under the basket...

Not happy I missed the game, hopefully this will be the only one.

Saw some highlights, realistically how much longer can LeBron be a freak in the open court like this? Malone, Barkley, Pippen, all those guys slowed down quite a bit at some point. LeBron is 32, he keeps beating people up the court and slamming it home. Closest comparison might be Nique in terms of doing it into his mid 30's. But LeBron has quite a bit of size, weight, and mileage on him in comparison.
