Good 1st quarter for both teams. The Knicks obviously closed it out better.

All the Pacers bigs will foul out trying to battle Robinson in the paint for rebounds.

One of the strongest players in the league. He just has glass ankles. Sort of like Jalen Duren.

Mitch will have the biggest impact in this series. Pacers don't have an answer, unless they do Hack-a-Mitch and want to be in the bonus early.

Knicks unfazed by Pacers crazy shooting percentages. Took a big shot to the chin and still found a way to have the lead.
