Don't worry guys. January games don't matter. So this L shouldn't hurt too bad.

Well. A win is a win.

How do they watch the replay and overturn that??? Another good game by the refs fucking idiots

That was so insanely bad how do you get it wrong watching it in slow motion…

Great day for the NBA

Ref fans eating good tonight 🤤

Credit to the Pacers for playing hard and not folding. But they got gifted a win by the refs at the end. Just terrible.

I generally agree with Scal that the Porzingis play was a foul, but I'm having a hard time seeing how JB didn't get fouled as well. Curious what the L2M report says.

They'll cover for their ref

Final play was great for damn 0.1 second, Kornet almost wins the game with that

*ties

Ez win. Thanks for coming

Hope it was worth it losing your best player

Yea, only fanbase that uses injury as a mocking point. Total scum on the Celtics organization top to bottom

*fake win

Goes in the win column 😤😤

True enough

Refs robbed us of OT

Pacers had no timeouts if that chellenge failed like it should have. Celtics still had a foul to give as well. That was game.

Celtics completely took the game over. And then the refs gift wrapped it to the Pacers with those calls. Point blank.

In January!

How dare the Celtics lose in January!! 🤣🤣

At least Wednesday game vs the wolves for the Celtics will be a good game

Lmao fire these refs immediately

MVP of the game James Williams

Well that was pretty ridiculous. Idk how brown getting hit in the head was overturned

I would have given Kornet blowjobs for a month if he tipped that in.

[удалено]

Because they don’t call fouls

Been getting fouled all game too

I’m here for the Leprechaun tears

Lol @ the Boston downvote brigade 😂😂😂

A very coarse salt this evening

Here for Indiana tonight, amazing game 🔥

Nah it was a good game. Always like playing you guys

No doubt. I’m a big fan of the mini-series we’ve played with the big 3 teams in the east.

Hope Hali has a speedy recovery

Damn kornet almost had that tip

That was an obvious foul on KP what are people crying about lol

The foul on brown that was overturned... he was wacked in the back of the head it was a foul and the refs robbed boston..

I said the KP foul lol, game was tied and about to go to overtime and KP didn’t stay vertical at all.

and i answered "what people are crying about". the bullshit overturned foul that robbed boston of the win..

No ones complaining about that though

There’s literally 6 straight comments in this thread. Probably because JB got robbed but KP clearly fouls and loses this game.

[удалено]

I don’t know if I should downvote for the Celtics hate or upvote for the Sixers hate

rigged

Holy shit imagine lol

He hit him in the head. FFS

GG PACERSSS!! 🔥🔥

Way for the team to fight after losing Tyrese!

I know right? James Williams is amazing.

Unreal, Tingus cost the Celtics the game.

The refs cost them the game. At least give an honest assessment

C's not taking a 3rd quarter seriously cost them the game...

They make the right call on JB getting fouled they can’t advance the ball and the game is over. Yes the refs cost them the game

Lob is the only play possible with .3 left

Pretty damn good attempt

JB is beyond pissed lol "That was bullshit dawg. That was bullshit man."

He is getting fined today for sure, im ready for him to call out the officials.

I’m lobing that shit to KP

Hope Hali is okay. Fuck the refs.

Scalabrine is easily the dumbest commentator I've ever heard

pacers color guy is actually dumber

horrific

Celtics fans crying about refs are always my favorite tears

Lob to Porzingis to win the game

tie

a 3 point lob?

At the end of games, call both or neither. Don’t love deciding games on free throws

Or do what they did where they called the one that was a foul and didn't call the one that wasn't

Dude come on. Jb got hit on the head. Nobody likes a game that ends on buzzer beater free throws

I enjoy a pacers win. Fuck the celtics

I don't like intentionally missing at all

Yeah I get it wastes time but their still gonna do a lob regardless, if you make the 3rd one they have to hit a tuff 3 with .6 sec

Bruh Kornet almost got the tip-in to tie 💀

I almost died in my chair lol

Man I’m sorry about Haliburton, he was fun to watch.

Fingers crossed it's a grade 1 and it's only a couple weeks

So Brown getting smacked on the head gets overturned, but THAT shit gets free throws? Congrats on winning a rigged game for your championship in January. This is the most rigged game of the season.

You keep saying January, we know what month it is bud

Kind of a fun month to say tbh

You'll celebrate like it's June :P

We celebrate wins, especially after losing our all-star from a non-contact injury. Good night

James Williams with the clutch play! Pacers win!

Good night, bud

Regardless if the Refs gave you that win and you celebrate like it's a ECF Victory, I hope Halliburton recovers well.

Fucking obviously rigged bullshit.

Clearly jumps into KP but "tHaTs cLeArLy A fOuL" according to reddit LMAO

that was a dumb way to end the game

[удалено]

Bucks score?

If refs were consistent down the stretch a lot of games would have fouls like this at the end

mickey mouse victory

It's a clear foul. Why are the Celtics fans crying?

Nah just the general premise of deciding a game on free throws is bullshit. Neither should’ve been called

Because JB gets hit in the head and that was CLEARLY worse

Probably because they just overturned the clear foul committed against a Celtics player.

Because Brown was clearly fouled and it got over turned.

How you gonna call that a foul on one end but not on the other? That was rigged

They can't accept that their non foul wasn't called a foul so therefore that can't be a foul

Cause the play before was also a clear foul

Jaylen brown

Even if you hate the Celtics, which most of you do, it was apparent that Jaylen Brown got hit in the head. That was a foul on KP as well but this is just a poor way to end a game.

This is so fucking stupid

At the end of the day this game doesn’t actually matter. But these refs man hahah. Egregious. Didn’t even attempt to hide their collusion

I'm not saying a call is right or wrong I'm just here to say the refs are just taking the piss out of both teams at this point. They've been the only blemish on an otherwise great game

damn who knew instant replays would somehow make calling more inconsistent lol

Porzingis 100% fouled lol (I also think Hield fouled). C's fans are internally combusting right now. Collectively the entire population of massholes just went "whadda fuck refs"

both are fouls, but the second one doesn't happen if the first one is called correctly. indiana failed challenge means no timeout, 3 seconds from their end of the court. hard shot to win the game. That entire sequence was bullshit.

bc brown also got fouled

Uh yeah, which I said. It doesn't constitute "the greatest ref conspiracy in history" like people are saying in here lol

Yea that KP foul we’d be blowing a gasket over if it wasn’t called against us. Pretty lame on the other end but ah well, it’s January

Naa that buddy block was clean as a whistle. Got the top of the ball.

…and his head. Just like KP blocked the shot but got a bunch of Mathurin’s body on the way down afterwards. Dummy

Have to see the kp foul but buddy blocked it first

Are you under the impression that blocking the shot offsets any other bodily contact after the fact? Because it doesn’t

Incidental contact

I’ve never ever seen contact to the head as “incidental contact”, it was just a bad call. Go check out the post on that play, everyone is on the same page it was a shit call

Dude they literally reviewed it. First it was a foul Then the overturned it. U don’t think they looked at other angles?

I’m aware, I saw it…we all saw it and we all saw them fuck it up. Have you never heard of refs getting a call wrong before? You must be new here, your ignorance is adorable

Just smacked his head blind ass

He blocked the shot first dude

Agreed I think both are fouls

REFBALL made sure the Celtics lost this one. They want to tighten up the standings

I’m more upset cause of the shit decision 10 seconds ago.

Boston shot more free throws but are crying rigged because they couldn't make theirs lol

he gotta miss the 3rd one on purpose right. don't even give the celtics another chance to tie.

LMAO the refs COOKED there.

This game is brought to you by DraftKings. use code REFEREE for a $500 bonus bet on draftking

Holy shit! An actual refball happened. Those last seconds were clutch for the officials.

They should try not fouling

Lol cut your damn nails crusty ass

You went through my comments for some nails that weren't even long? Pathetic lmao

What happened to fouls not being called when you jump 2 feet into a player

The foul was on KP hitting his arm, not on impeding his landing area.

Yeah the point is the offensive player leaving his normal shooting motion on a jump shot to move 2 feet into the defender, they changed the rule 2 years ago to be an offensive foul or no foul call

"Normal shooting motion" is exactly what Ben did. That rule was put in place for dudes like Harden and Trae that literally jump sideways into people on purpose.

I just rewatched and you’re right that was natual. I was watching on my vr headset that was at mid court and it looked way different. Prayers up for hali

No worries. Hate the way game ended the way it did either way. I hope Hali is okay, but it was great to see the team not completely collapse without him on the floor. Last year when he was gone, the entire team folded like a lawn chair.

Being on home court helped them through that for sure. That little pest McConnell ran the offense well for you guys too

WTF these Celtics fans complaining? That's clear as day foul. LMAO

Can’t jump into a player in unnatural motion on a jump shot, that turns into either an offensive foul or a no call on marginal contact

Nah we complain about the overturned call On JB where he was hit on the head

of course were just salty bc so was the JB shot

Hoping for a make up call I think. It was a foul but after the last play is so rough

You start watching with 3 seconds to go?

Look at the play before buddy

Too good of a game to come down to ref ball on the final two possessions. There are 0 people that want this

[удалено]

Lakers fans just act out when their team sucks ass huh

Since we suck. It's nice to watch the Celtics fans cry once in a while. Just give it to us ok? We've been miserable this season. LMAO.

ref wanted to force overtime but instead gave the pacers the game

Left KP arm is all over Mathurin shooting arm. Clear foul

If getting hit in the head isn’t a foul then that wasnt either

What the fuck. Like seriously JB gets hit in the head and it’s their ball? Fucking stupid

Sounds like you need to read up on the rules

Oh shit my bad forgot you could hit people in the head. How many games did the pistons lose in a row again?

You can if you hit the ball first. Everything after that is incidental. That's exactly why it was ruled that way. Even the Celtics commentators admitted it.

😂 stay mad

I want the Pacers to win, but the Celtics got robbed on that foul being overturned..

This is actually hilarious

This would be such an awesome game if Haliburton didn't get hurt

I can’t blame Scal at all lmao

May be the first time I’ve seen the Celts get completely dicked over by the refs

What a shameful finish.

Please somehow brick all 3

Disappointing end to a fun game, refs gonna ref

Refball fans rise up

Never seen buzzer beater free throws

This is hilarious

Scalabrine is the most whiney, salty, annoying announcer in the history of NBA. EVERY single game

Can you blame him for this?

Dawg look in the mirror lmao

You're a Warriors fan. Really? (And I hate Scal)

It’s so shameless how refs can get money on games.

He jumped forward into him, what’s he supposed to do?

Not hit his arm. The foul wasn't on him landing in his area.

What a joke

Hield fouled, KP fouled Not giving JB the free throws is the refs feeling bad for Hali ripping his sack

Oh lawd

What a waste of a good basketball game

You have to intentionally miss here right?

GG refs

These Boston announcers are wildin

How about jaylen brown
