It’s wild seeing the Pacers pass up shots just to find the guy Brunson is defending.

They body Brunson on EVERY play when he's the ballhander, and then they call that **** as a foul. This whole series has me scratching my head.

i’d rather the Pope solve real-world problems (like Trump) than help these pathetic Knicks. He knows a how hopeless this is and not even miracles can save them.

They want to keep wearing him out on defense.

I don’t understand this mindset. It’s the same stupid **** we heard in the previous series with Cleveland. In fact we hear it all the time.

Why is it that when one team loses, they’re frauds? We can see what’s happening out there with our eyes. Why is this always the conclusion we draw to?

Or better yet: why is it so hard to give opposing teams more credit for playing great? Why isn’t this a matter of the Pacers just being that good? They’re playing excellent defense, hitting their shots, executing at a high level, but for some reason it’s “the Knicks are frauds”.

Knicks defense without Brunson and KAT was amazing there.

Knicks getting this down to 13 at half feels like a miracle.

Terrible end to the quarter by the Pacers. They kept breaking down the defense, but they recovered so well on numerous occasions.
