They completely stole the momentum of the game at the end.


Nah not really. Momentum is swinging because the Pacers can’t defend 3pt shooters without fouling.

KAT has such an incredible touch. He's almost Jokic esque at times.

Brunson has to sit and the Pacers BBIQ just short circuits

The Knicks offense looks much better without Brunson. The injury was a blessing in disguise. They did the same to Boston.

No doubt IMO that the league is more interesting when the Knicks matter.
Jokic 31/21/22
Luka & Oscar = 5 x 27/8/8
The Brodie = All-out energy
Best Canadian: Nash or SGA?

Great adjustment by Thibs taking Kat out of the drop and now switching.
