Indy is a good team... I won't say they're not. But they are being overrated a bit right now. I think we are the buzzsaw rude awakening they deserve.
I don't think they'll be ready for this new New York Knicks team.

Reggie is one of the most fairest analysis out there. Was pro-Knick when they started turning the corner.
This is very true. But now they are playing HIS team in a big time series, his biases may start to permeate through.

He really didn’t last time. He’s not trying to **** up his bag. He loves this job. And I think he’s good at it.
Outside the lines when he’s just representing Reggie, it’s whatever tho.
Reggie seems to be very objective as an analyst. I really don't see him being unprofessional. He's not a narcissist that eats his own ass like Draymond does.
Honestly we see Breen do it all the time, it's not difficult to call an impartial game.
Boston fans got mad at Richard Jefferson for calling out the poor officiating during the NY/BOS series when he was literally being objective. It's not like Richard is a closet Knicks fanhe was just doing his job.

Don't forget to sprinkle the angel dust on there too! Space base!! Turner vs KAT. I've seen a lot on here but, this one is pretty wild.
Not it is not wild. Not at all. If you look at the last 3 seasons, Turner has matured into a player that averages 17points per game on 50%/38%/77%. On offense he is still somewhat limited overall but he does fulfill his role as a modern shooting big pretty perfectly. On defense he blows KAT out of the water in almost any imaginable defensive category other than rebounding. He is elite at protecting the rim and he can guard the perimeter as well as the post.
On offense I would give Turner a 7/10. KAT gets a 9/10. On defense Turner gets an 8/10 but KAT gets at most like a 4 or 5/10.
KAT is the clearly better offensive player but on defense it is no contest. For whatever reason Turner is a bad rebounder, otherwise he'd win that contest. Mitch and Turner are somewhat different on defense but imagine someone along the lines of Robinson, able to get 17points, shoot 3s and shoot close to 80% from the ft line. It would be a no brainer.
Fans generally underestimate how problematic KAT's defensive deficiencies are for the Knicks. If they watch a game and KAT scores a couple baskets, makes those long drives and hits a 3 it looks spectacular and has you thinking "KAT is fantastic". The lack of defense is not always that eyepopping but it costs the Knicks tons of points.
And if you look at the playoffs specifically the difference in points is a mere 3 points per game. Turner the last 3 seasons has averaged like 16/8 on 50/45%/77% in the playoffs in like 31 games. KAT has average 19/10. Especially in the playoffs the difference on offense is not even that big.

this, he's actually pretty pro-knick lol, I rather him then the others on the network. Screw the player, analyst is fine.

I really wonder why someone would wear a rival team's jersey on the street at night, especially when there is no Pacers game that night to justify such behavior. That is simply inviting trouble.
If this happened in the UK, Argentina, or any country with intense British football (soccer) rivalries, and someone did the same as this poor Hicks fan, much "massive" objects would surely be thrown.

I agree. I just wont be surprised if the league makes sure the series is extended. If league interference wasn't a concern. I would call a sweep.
A "zero" can never beat a master number(11).
