I'm not giving the Pacers much of a chance, but I haven't watched them much this season so I could be tragically wrong.

Pascal's going to be guarded by OG and Precious. I don't like this matchup at all for Indy.

Do you know that we won the season series against them?

Since the Knicks play with playoff intensity all the time, the regular season games should be relevant.

The Knicks are the favorite here but I'm excited for this series. The last time these two teams faced off was back in the 2013 Playoffs. It was an ECSF match-up once again. And just like that time, 11 years ago, this one is once again going to be a battle of offense vs defense. The difference is that this time it's the Knicks who are the defensive stalwarts while back then it was the Pacers.

I think that we will lose in 6 games but I am so happy for the experience that our young players are going to amass :D

I have Pacers in six unless the Knicks can keep the pace of the game down. If they're running and gunning with only 7 players, I am not sure they will have enough gas to win. If it goes 7, then I expect the Knicks to move on.

Knicks gonna whoop them. The arw to tough nose and gritty to lose to a team like the pacers who don't play d. Only way the pacers hang around is if they pull a miami and shoot blazing hot from 3 all series.

I say knicks in 5. Maybe 6 if the pacers steal one of the first 2 games on the road.

I actually think the Pacers match up really well with NY.

Siakam gives them a different look in the PO's.

Comes down to if Hali can match Brunson pt for pt or in impact.
