However, it is <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ScottAgness\/status\/2003313368552411338?s=20\" rel=\"nofollow\">a play that occurred<\/a> with 4:30 left in the first quarter that Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle wants the league to take a look at.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t know what the exact rule is,\u201d Carlisle said. \u201cI think it was 4:30 or 4:32 to go in the first quarter. There was a play where Isaiah Jackson gets elbowed by (Neemias) Queta and then simultaneously gets elbowed a second time. Then he has to go out of the game for concussion observation and then was unable to return.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The play <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nba\/story\/_\/id\/47395834\/pacers-want-nba-review-play-injured-isaiah-jackson\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Carlisle was referring to<\/a> was a post play in which the 7-foot Queta was jockeying for position with the much shorter Jackson.<\/p>\n<p>Queta planted on his left foot and spun back toward the hoop before putting the basketball off the glass. <\/p>\n<p class=\"nesn-in-content-ad__copy\">Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<p>He connected with his non-shooting arm as he took the shot, and his follow-through arm after it missed.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Carlisle took offense to the play that looked pretty consistent with many that one would see when watching an NBA game. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI hope the league looks at that,\u201d Carlisle said. \u201cThat was a play that I felt should have been looked at in real time. It did not appear to be accidental, and it\u2019s very dangerous.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"nesn-in-content-ad__copy\">Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately for all parties involved, the physical play in the post resulted in a head injury for the Pacers\u2019 young forward.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t know how long he\u2019s going to be out, but it\u2019s pretty serious,\u201d Carlisle said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe play that happened, it just can\u2019t be missed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"nesn-in-content-ad__copy\">Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Boston Celtics pulled off their most improbable win of the season Monday night against the Indiana Pacers.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":497043,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3774],"tags":[7,113,126,3866,6,4986,114],"class_list":{"0":"post-497042","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-indiana-pacers","8":"tag-basketball","9":"tag-indiana","10":"tag-indiana-pacers","11":"tag-indianapacers","12":"tag-nba","13":"tag-neemias-queta","14":"tag-pacers"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/115786568800284355","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/497042","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=497042"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/497042\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/497043"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=497042"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=497042"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=497042"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
