PG: Small market deserves their ref help to a win

kNicksGmen · Post #141 » by **kNicksGmen** » Sat May 11, 2024 2:07 am

lot of bad breaks/bounces in the 4th and a miracle step back goes in for them.

questionable officiating to say the least but hey it's the playoffs and they are home let them have it.

i felt like hart forcing it on the 1 on 2 was a momentum killer even though it could have been a goaltend.

missed free throws hurt us again. gave up offensive rebounds/loose balls...

it sucks because we had this game and could have essentially iced the series at 3-0. we still are in position to win regardless but have to hope brunson's foot gets better and not worse. he missed so many shots around the rim he normally makes.

Positives were definitely Burks, Previous and Deuce. Bench played really well!

And Brunson looked and moved better as the game went on. I'm not a doc but it looks like a sprain foot. He'll be alright.

No it doesn’t.

I was worried Philly could win game 6. I have 0 fear of IND they played their best game of the series and barely won. Knicks in 5 still

WIth the injuries, I think Indy could still beat us - at least, it's still a winable series for either team.

That said, the Philly game 5 hurt more. That was brutal. Without OG, Knicks have to win short handed. I'm very impressed with our team. That's not to say they didn't make mistakes in a winable game today, but I'm still impressed with these guys. Whatever happens the rest of the way in this series, I'm impressed by this team.

I really thought we had it when we took a 7 lead

Brunson came in and wasn’t good

We are at a point where they have new life and we are hurt

Not great but we’ll see

Brunson and Thibs should have made more of an effort to get Ragu the rock in the 4th.

This is only the 4th or 5th time this season that we lost while leading entering the 4th

Regardless of the missed calls, Josh and Jalen missing freee throws and Donte’s goaltending were some real back breaking plays. Plus the possession they got 2 offensive rebounds. We had a lot of chances even if the refs put their thumbs on the scale for the pacers

Our physicality finally got to Haliburton, real curious to see how he looks Sunday.

Knicks in 6, as predicted earlier.

I mean thibs should have had achiuwa in there I’m pretty sure he would have not let pacers grab that many rebounds. Achiuwa has been proven to grab clutch boards also he makes more sense on Siakam vs hart

We're winning Sunday.

Sure, a lot of bad calls against us but we had every chance to win this game.

Burks missed a couple shots, Brunson missed 2 easy ones, Deuce missed a wide open 3, and we didn’t rebound when it counted.

This was on us, I think expect us to come out strong on Sunday and win convincingly

We were up 9 with 9 min left... and scored only 16pts in total in the 4th...refs were terrible, JB become a Melo and Divo wasnt feed at all in the last 6 mins
