The battle between Indiana's offensive ceiling and Indiana's inability to really defend Brunson, KAT, or the glass has made this series really interesting

KAT’s a good player.
:o LeBron is 0-7 in game winning/tying FGs in the finals. And is 20/116 or 17% in game winning/tying FGs in the 4th/OT for his career. That's historically bad :o

Maybe it’s just me I don’t think it’s a good sign from the Knicks that they’re fighting tooth and nail with Indiana for two straight games at home.

If we could rebound better, we'd be practically unbeatable.
