Twitter Reacts to the Pacers vs. Wizards Madness

The Indiana Pacers beat the Washington Wizards 99-95 on Tuesday night to keep their eighth seed hopes alive. The game was WILD. George Hill led the way for Indiana with 24 points, 10 assists and nine rebounds. He shot 11-of-25 from the field. Missed the game and want to read a recap a little bit different from the norm? Read a collection of tweets starting from the fourth quarter.

4TH QUARTER

The Pacers trail by 9 with 6:41 to go. If they lose, Brooklyn controls destiny for the 8th seed.

Fieldhouse is begging to erupt. Got a taste after that GHill 3.

CJ MILES WANTS THE PLAYOFFS.

If only they had 5 CJ Mileses (Milesi?).

David West's passing this season has been tremendous

David "Magic" West out here trying to save the Pacers like he did against ATL last season, just with a different weapon.

ROY HIBBERT HAS MADE HIS SECOND SHOT! AND IT'S A BIG ONE!

BELIEVE IN GODNEY. GODNEY SAVES.

Not good from Hill. Not at all. Gotta run the PnR with West until you make the defense make a decision.
— Nilla Nillanovic (@JayNilla) April 15, 2015

Paul George back for the final 25 seconds.
— Scott Agness (@ScottAgness) April 15, 2015

Two missed John Wall shots and a Marcin Gortat tip-in that was well after the buzzer. Overtime.

OVERTIME

Five more minutes in Indy.
— David Aldridge (@davidaldridgedc) April 15, 2015

Can the Pacers switch into the FloJos for overtime like the Mighty Ducks did for D2?
— Dave “Mortgages” Searle (@MillerTimePod) April 15, 2015

Unbelievable hustle back from Stuckey. Caught Wall, forced the turnover.
— Nate Duncan (@NateDuncanNBA) April 15, 2015

Kind of infuriating that Drew Gooden's career has lasted longer than Yao Ming and Jay Williams put together...
— Jon Washburn (@DeanOfMortgages) April 15, 2015

END THIS GAME. RIGHT NOW. CALL IT OFF. NO ONE GETS THE 8TH.
— Hardwood Paroxysm (@HPbasketball) April 15, 2015

IND got amazing looks with the 1/3 PNR with George in the game. Should go back to that.

If you like seeing guys crash into each other, the seats and the floor, Pacers-Wizards is the game for you

CLUTCH HIBBERT SHOOTING!
— Ben Gibson (@CowboyOnPatrol) April 15, 2015

For all of us, out of mercy. RT @AschNBA: If there is a second OT ... sudden death.
— Dan Devine (@YourManDevine) April 15, 2015

We've seen many NBA coaches run the Clogged Toilet offense before, but Randy Wittman is the one that mastered it.

PAUL GEORGE BEEN BACK BUT NOW PAUL GEORGE IS BACK BACK.

In the event that Pacers-Wizards goes to 2OT, this feed will instantly become a crochet tips Twitter feed. We’re out.

DOUBLE OVERTIME

3J Miles hits one from the corner, and he has 25 points tonight. IND 90, WAS 87
— Indiana Pacers (@Pacers) April 15, 2015

I’m all for being competitive, but Randy Wittman is running dudes into the ground a few days before the playoffs.

Very odd… an 8 second backcourt violation called against the #Pacers
— Candace Buckner (@CandaceDBuckner) April 15, 2015

Haven’t gotten to take this out of the bag in a while…

ASSASSIN’S CREED: DAVID WEST.
