A good team, but probably one that would only go so far.

Yeah, that was a one time flukey team, difficult to be that lucky again.

KAT with the Embiid whistle would be a generational big man.

Hart with another TO.

2nd round ceiling at best if they're your best players. They're all Robins but with a Batman next to them that's a dangerous team, see 2019.

Why is Bridges initiating the offense?

Stick to your dumb gambling addiction. You have no clue what you're even talking about.

78 points combined in the first and now combined 40 in the second. i wonder if the Pacers should just run everytime again in the second half knowing the Knicks struggle with conditioning and fatigue late.

That's better than the current Raptors team, but they'd also be older and more expensive.

How’s your rebuilding? Contenders again by 2030 maybe?

KAT is maybe the Knicks most important/significant player. When he stays out of dumb foul trouble.

He is carrying this hard working Knicks team on his giant shoulders right now

He has been so good Thibs hasn't really needed Mitchell Robinson so far

Towns has been plum tuckered out for a while now. Wake up, Thibs.

Wonder why IND ismt hunting Brunson anymore?

They were the #1 seed the year after the championship when Lowry was still their best player, but once he started getting older, then went to Miami, they were never the same.

KAT is the type of low-basketball IQ player that is so effective if you just simplify things. Just ask him to attack and shoot without thinking, he’s more relaxed and efficient that way.

Keys for the Knicks for the second half:
- Enough with all these turnovers, they are killing the Knicks!
- Keep attacking the basket, good things happen every time. The Knicks are by far the more physical team down low.
- Cannot let Tyrese put up 50
- Force the Pacers to live and die by the three

Silver put in the call for IND to extend the series on purpose

Brunson gets the Timothy Chalamet whistle

Who wins Game 4??
