It didn’t look too good last game but I think the Knicks are going to figure out the Pacers’ strategies as the series goes on. They learn pretty well from their mistakes, whether it’s Brunson recovering from G1 and G2 vs Philly or the Knicks bouncing back after throwing Game 5 at the end.

The part people maybe aren’t used to seeing is that we have the only legit Playoff closer in this series.

Siakam has flashes of brilliance, but with OG guarding him Siakam has very little chance of out dueling Brunson down the stretch.

Hats off to the Indy role players for playing out of their minds, but that’s not how Playoff basketball works. The best player wins the game in the end. It’s always been this way and it’s why we lost to MJ, Hakeem, and Tim Duncan.

Thing is — we have the best player in this series or any series until the Finals.

Look who’s left:

1) Jokic (for now!)
2) Luka
3) Ant
4) SGA
5) Brunson
6) Tatum

The best players in the league make it to the very end. You really expect Siakam to keep pace with us in the 4Q?

Getting reaaaaaaally sick and tired of hearing J Williams and Legler on Get up….all they want to talk about is the Turner Foul, how about them tugging on Brunson on the inbound? The 2 bail out calls Indi got the last 3 seconds of the shot clock??(RIDICULOUS calls) they threw their best punch, got the game into the 120’s and still couldn’t win, going to smoke these guys game 2

They made a conscious effort to rebound but the Knicks just kept at it and chipped away and got more and more offensive board as the game moved on, their center had 2 boards and boy wonder had 6 and 8, Knicks win game 2 by 15+ just defend that damn PNR where they get the switch onto the small Defender near the paint

Go under TJ and Nemhard screens
Be more physical on defense
Reduce sloppy turnovers
Get OG into more curl plays towards the rim
Switch Hali Turner P&R more

We got this…

Legler talking about if Halliburton takes 12-13 shots they win by 7-8 points, bro what? You think TJ still scores the 18? Turner with 23? Both well above their averages. Halliburton isn’t what he thinks he is he’s a solid player 18-9 type guy but not some franchise altering player, sorry, the Knick crowd in fact is great Mr Burton

Only way the Knicks erase the questions is to dominate. That should be the goal too.

If TJ was in most of the 4th over Hali or Nembhard… we probably lose that game. Blunder by their coach but I’ll take it.

He's talking more about consistency, but Tim -- for whatever reason -- always sounds more basis against the Knicks. Which sucks, because I do enjoy his stuff. ESPN complaining more about the 2 calls more than the game itself is just wrong.

I think the solution to the bench is to keep Brunson in the game when Mitch is in because he's such a liability on offense. Use Deuce and Burks with iHart whenever you can. Mitch with Deuce is inviting disaster.
