2025 EASTERN CONFERENCE FINALS: #3 New York Knicks vs #4 Indiana Pacers (IND leads 1-0)

[Domz]

As a complete neutral fan, this was fantastic. Between the Pacers inability to miss early in the 1Q, OG's missed layup, Toppin's missed dunk, Nesmith turning into Reggie Miller, Haliburton pulling a KD, and the OT overall, absolute cinema. 10/10 entertainment.

[PierceFan4ever]

Hali’s choke even more iconic. Gave them an overtime lifeline for the Knicks and they still couldn’t get it done. This game might **** the Knicks mentally

[ballzboyee]

Knicks could have protected that lead and won easily with a little better shot clock management. They thought they were playing the Celtics and gave the Pacers too many possessions. Big mistake.

[Enso]

New York in shambles tonight, I wouldn't want to be in that city tomorrow

1st win for Pacers in east finals since 2004?? Didn't they get games off of the Heatles??

Road win.

[azcatz11]

nothing I saw tonight makes me think pacers can win the series

Imagine saying something like this though after you lose in such fashion. So embarrassing, have some shame lol.

I'm sorry I don't think nesmith will hit 7 3's in 2 minutes along with the luckiest 3 pt bounce since kawhi

it's obvious we are better and the pacers defense can't hold us

No you can’t say that. That’s basketball

[Effigy]

The Pacers did to the Knicks what the Knicks did to the Celtics. What a game! I'll take six more please!

[scrabbarista]

I'm still speechless. That was some game!

[Calinks]

Don't want to hear a damn thing about Haliburton being overrated again!

[LFGK]

Pacers finally playing a healthy team lol

Mhmm

Where are you my erudite friend ?

Long series big dawg, scrub got hot from 3

[Wolfgang630]

And the Knicks could’ve lost at the end of the 4th with their almost turnovers when Brunson tried to throw it off a pacer and he missed. He got lucky OG got ball

[KGDirkTD_Fan]

Why is everyone online talking about Reggie Miller as if he passed away, he's still here... lmao

[The Warrior]

Congrats to pacers but an Indiana and OKC Finals is a nightmare, spend time with your family instead

No, as a neutral I will enjoy that matchup. I don't need "iconic" franchises like a casual to enjoy.

you don’t see many pacers games do ya

[Wingy]

The Knicks were up 14 with 2.5 minutes to go wow

There was a chance Thibs might rest some guys more going forward after seeing a great run with Brunson on the bench, but then……..

[MoneyTalks41890]

If the G1 winners win the series, Indiana and OKC is interesting, top offense versus top defense

Also best benches in the league as well

Sent from my SM-G998U using RealGM mobile app

The difference would be that OKC can score as well but Indiana cannot defend.

Not recently

It was an up and down game, even most of the night. Pacers just had the biggest run at the end.

These are clearly even-ish teams with the Pacers holding the advantage with a road win. If youre still not respecting the Pacers, youve got a problem.

[Fat]

This choke job by the Knicks is enough to make me root for the pacers the rest of way. This is inexcusable

Spoiler:

Knicks in 5

[ibraheim718]

Need a whole ass Dateline episode to breakdown that choke job.
