Bottom 4 rebounding team, but Chuck knew the Knicks wouldn’t kill them on boards smh

We clean up the boards and miss communication on defense and I think they turn it around this second half

This feels like a loss and McConnell will hit the dagger

yup...and a lot of those minutes were with mitch and precious...

thibs gotta trust some of these guys...the pace the pacers want to run us at I don't think our main guys can effectively play nearly 48 minutes without any rest.

They are soft….

Just because you repeat something doesn't make it true

We're tougher, but they're a deep & scrappy team.

alright I’ll make sure to quote this …

I think we will regain control of the boards. That truly has been the difference. Only 2 offensive boards is not like us. We are getting out hustled especially by TJ.

We're going to have to be selective with our intensity in this series. If we try to match their energy for 48 minutes we'll run out of gas by game 3 :lol:

but I generally agree with you. This game is still very winnable.

We need to trade Mitch asap

Ok? I still think we're going to win 6, but this will be a harder series than Philly was because Indiana has a better team this year that's a tougher stylistic matchup for us.

Either donte or deuce need to produce

Biggest need this offseason is going to get a 2 who is a consistent bucket

I agree. Giving McBride the Fournier treatment after everything he's shown he can provide is a bad coaching call. McBride is our TJ. Let him go out there and provide that energy boost.

Brunsons getting cooked by Tj McConnell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The last thing we need is another small guard who can’t defend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rebounding dictates intensity…we win the boards we slow them down…you guys are silly …we will win the rebounding battle again, can’t run if you don’t have the ball

He's doing something Thibs isn't happy with. I do feel like something's lacking all the sudden.
