That stat about Jaylen not hitting a tying or go ahead 3 in the final 10 seconds is not true. He hit one against the jazz in 2018 and one against the rockets in 2020. Good job Espn.

when there’s a double BANG, you know it’s legendary

I’m a Celtics fan but the funniest part about them not fouling is the fact that if they would’ve foul Jaylen brown on the shot, he would’ve definitely missed one of then free throws lol

Jrue gets my game 1 MVP award

100% my Celtics woulda lost this type game each of the last 5 seasons.

Brown hit a crazy banker against Miami to send it to OT last regular season so that stat abt it being his first 3 to tie or take the lead in the final seconds is objectively wrong lol

First clutch for Brown in playoffs yall forget about his game winner vs Utah in 2018 and tie 3pt shot vs Houston

Holiday is the reason why Boston stole the w back from Indiana........the C's had no business grabbing the victory from the jaws of defeat. But Holiday was the consistent, steady presence that kept Boston right there.

I have to say thanks to Legs for that breakdown, the best explanation I've seen in a long time.

Pacers just played their absolute best game of the entire season and still lost. Morale crusher.

So many parlays were hit tonight!

30 free throws to 10!!!

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="467">7:47</a> "[The Celtics are] a great defensive team." Pacers Guard Tyrese Haliburton Pacers Fans: THE REFS!!!!!!! THE REFS!!! 😭😭😭😭

Complete choke job on behalf of the Pacers, this loss is unacceptable. Not sure how they can mentally come back from this.

Six days off it showed,,, now it's time to get it right and get busy!! Celtic Nation in the house!! 🏀🏀

Pacers scored some crazy shoots and I am not sure they can do that in 4 of 7 games

2 minute report: Yea..we missed that call on Brown

Not good when you have to "steal" game 1 on your own home court as the # 1 seed.

This game was insane🔥🔥

Pacers: Repeat for Game 1 vs Knicks. Had it in the bag and lost it. Can they come back against a loaded Celtics team?

Let’s go Celtics!

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="230">3:50</a> Brown has hit a crazy 3 against the Rockets back in early 2020 to send to overtime

These guys have arrived!!! The next generation of basketball is going to be unbelievable 😮😮😮😮

Pacers 100% gave this game to the Celtics. Hard to watch these Celtics almost lose home court advantage to a team that played so poorly lol.

Them boys was hitting ANYTHING 😂😂😂😂😂

Look at the free throw disparity lol crazy huh

Karl Anthony towns and Haliburton are the most sassy NBA players in the league

This is how playoff games should go!!

The way it ended gave me Miami - Indiana Vibes when Indy let one slip away and then lose the series

Game 2 that's what is important!!

Man they be doing JB dirty yo and I hate it. He is my Jimmy butler since he came into the league not only is he literally the longest on court employee of the Celtics he is the key player to their Offense and Defense all 7-8 years JT is just a stat padder tbh, if feels like JT is just a shorter KD, and JB is the true baller and alpha of the team don't care what anyone says JT is just a KD type player but JB is truly the Man amongst Men

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="230">3:50</a> thats not true, JB has hit a handful of clutch shots in his career

NEVER EVEN THOUGHT OF CELTICS GETTING SWEPT THESE MEN ARE DANGEROUS GOTTA CELTICE GOTTA BRING IT 48 MINS. EVERY GAME/PACERS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL....THE BEST SERIES IN THE PLAYOFF AFTER DENVER/MINN. KNICKS/PACERS AND IT JUST GETTING BETTER/BETTER!!!!

I feel like I've been huffing gas when Mazzulla talks

Great analysis on the in ball..I dont know why he didnt hv McConnell in those last 4mins..at least..he makes smart & quick reads..& can stay in front of guys as he has good defensive ftwk.

Even though Hali complains a lot I agree with his TO thoughts. The pacers beat themselves down the stretch. Early through the 3rd we forced turnovers, but they ended up destroying themselves at the end and in OT. Good game. Cs in 5

THATS why they paid him 300 MILLION

Cry Celtics haters

give us back "inside the nba"

Bang bang celtics gang ☘️

Coach Mazz let's get some rest and get ready for game 2 💤

I had jaylen 25.5 over thank you !!!! Amazing $$$$$$$$$

Myles turner suddenly become prime ray allen when they go against celtics 😂

Ok, Boston good game but you got to keep going and try to stay healthy. LET'S GO BOSTON!!!!!!!!!👍

Jaylen earning that pay day!

First chapter of the script complete.

Best NBA game of the year bro and it’s right after the 2nd best game of the year Wolves Nuggets G7.

Points in the paint: 58 boston to 56 Indiana 25ft boston to 3 Indiana 48 mins. OT Boston 5ft to Indiana 7ft in 5min. How do you go a whole game of 48 mins and only get 3ft. To then go in OT and double it in 5 min? NBA is unwatchable at this point.

That out of bounds call on the inbound pass…. I haven’t heard any one talk about how Siakim touched it after the ball bounced before it went out. I think it was off Pacers anyway but it wasn’t even close if you watch it back. I think the ref standing there saw that and that is why they didn’t replay it. At that point of the game, if they had a doubt they would’ve taken a look at that.

Bro 10.0 left what!!! Give it away is not in my book crazy but I understand.

Great game just wait until indy figures out the celtics 💯

All good lets go Pacers👏🏼

Lets go celtics all the way

Mannnn pacers y’all was that close !!

Made bet on ESPN Bet on Boston -4.5 & lucked out big time first thanks to the game tying 3 then the shenanigans the last 20 seconds of OT.

Nothing on Carlisle about his guys fouling Jaylen on that made 3 huh. Maybe he should send in some tapes about that

@<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="230">3:50</a> i dont believe it cause he had 1 game tying three against Houston Rockets a tip rebound by Marcus Smart to Jaylen Brown and drain the three to tie. So I dont believe it.

Go Celtics!

Impressive JT! I can see your growth and, the greatest thing about the future; is the future hasn’t gotten here yet! Keep going 🎉

Pacers sound like they expect to tie this series in game 2.

Celtics took their souls.

Siakam chokes. You gotta run towards the in bouncer. Reminds me of him running away from Danny Green’s inbound in game 6 in the 2019 finals 😂

Tatum came to play this time yall But he needs to calm down alittle..started getting to rushy anxious at times BUT I can see the hunger in all of them really HORFORD balled on both sides too....Holiday playing like the Holiday he is Jaylen is the man for awhile now too.White finally stepped up..Need more from him GOOD GAME KNOW ITS GONNA GET BETTER/INTERESTING!!!!!!!

Indiana is going to win this series.

Boston is the most marketable team left in the playoffs.

Halliburton using his deep voice cause he messed up

They dodged one 😂

Brown looking like the dude eminem defeated in 8 mile

Still our defense need to be better next game! Go Celtics!.

Known for their intense defense, the Celtics seemingly fell asleep on Indiana. They're lucky they came away with that OT win. This is going to be a long and rough,series if Boston plays around and doesn't make their statement and take care of business like they should. Celtics in six. <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="213">3:33</a> <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="214">3:34</a>

Pacers did almost enough but not quite. Took it to Boston in game 1. Pacers Nation is behind you,regroup, and execute better next game.

Pacers are no po's. But so to the OG celtics.

This is what great teams do. Celtics title #18.

Crazy how everyone who gets traded from the lakers turns into a star in another team

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="538">8:58</a> Even Rick Carlisle is blaming himself over the refs. Yet Pacer fans still blaming the refs. 😂

Not your fault, your coach should have called a time out when up by 3

Knicks really gave up on Obi SMH

With all the TO and FT disparity the Pacers still could have won this game. When you’re the underdog and you have a win in your lap you can’t drop it. What happened to Myles Turner in the 2nd half?

Halliburton speaks well

Celtics in 5

Told ya

Pacers got more turnovers than a bakery.

Where are the Celtics fans that hate on JB

GOOD GAME!!!!!! They both play so much alike on D&OFF. Pacers just play faster thats how they play Celtics got to match their pace or slow the game down BUT no surprize Pacers is no joke yall they got a big three Haliburton/Turner/Siakam anddd goodddd role players These boys are dangerous/very confident I love the way Celtics played as far as moving the ball Didn't give fully to playing one on one offensive game cause when yall did yall started turning it over KEEP moving the ball/play TEAM BALL!!!!!!!!! Keep tight defense tight those boys can shootttt the whole team and yall can pull this out Celtics IT'S gonna be a dog fight all the way PACERS DO NOT QUIT!!!!!! CELTICS CUT DOWN TURNOVERS AND STOP THOSE OFFENSIVE REBOUNDS!!!!!!!!! THEY GETTING GEEESSHHH!!!!! CAN'T PREDICT THESE PLAYOFFS THESE TEAMSSS ARE BALLING/HUNGRY MAY THE BEST/HUNGRIEST TEAM WIN SO MANYYY GOOD AND UPCOMING TEAMS CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE TEAMS THAT MADE THE PLAYOFFS/ESPECIALLY TO THOSE THAT ARE STILL IN IT!!!! IT IS VERY TOUGH/HARD TO GET TO WHERE YALL ARE ALSO TO ALL THE COACHES/GM'S COACHING STAFFS IT TAKES A VILLAGE TO RAISE UP THESE PLAYERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any other 76ers fans that watch Jason Tatum no longer trust the process?...

How are they not a team that doesn't force T.O.s? They forced over twenty this game and he only named 3-4 that were unforced. He might have to rethink that.

Pacers look stronger than I thought it'll go 7

Pacers is going to take the series,what I saw from Celtics was standing around

Fumbling this one may come back to bite them hard !! Terrible job from Tyrese, Spicy P and Carlisle. they litterally gave it away. SMH !! 🤔🤨

Definitely agree Pacers sold this game they were up 3 10 secs in the clock ⏰ but made bone head turnovers but overall I am sure Pacers will bounce back and this was good test for the Celtics

Carlise apologized for his errors. Where was Mazzulla's multiple apologies? Stupid time out toward the end of O/T which gave the Pacers hope to emulate the miracle save that the Celtics pulled out via the Jalen Brown play (1st forcing turnover and then hitting the 3 pt shot) Best bench in the NBA and he had them sit - tiny minutes or outright DNP Celtics got a double digit lead every quarter but starters too tired to keep it. Luckily Pacers hit the fatigue wall and made mistakes at the end.

the definition of how to choke a game away..

Don't lose game 2 Boston!!!

I’m a Celtics fan, but they REALLY benefitted from home court advantage (aka the refs) in this game. Without their help pacers would have won in regulation

ESPN alot of tatum highlights like he's the o ly one on the celtics

You gotta foul JB, he's been throwing up bricks at the free throw line for awhile, for some reason. There's no way he's hitting three free throws in a row, but he can hit 1 three if you put your hands behing your back. 😂

the Celtics will sweep this trash . 4-0. This series is over.

real tough to win against the celtics and the refs, especially when the refs are playing such crazy defence

Pacers were playing hack-a-Celtic all game and people are wondering why the huge FT discrepancy.

JB earned his supermax contract tonight!
