PG: Saved By The KAT

The move that should have been start Deuce, indy plays fast, the double bigs isn’t great, there offense starts from the back court

WTF?

Do you live in some kind of slow motion universe?

Kat was that good in the 4th which is so weird.

Cause he does the dumbest sht but when he is on he is unstoppable

Need to send his @ss to Oz for a brain.

the first half was as lost as he's ever been and then it's like he ate his wheaties all of a sudden in the 4th. who knows how it happens.

Yes, one of the true tragedies is that we don’t get Breen

If we manage to make the finals, at least we’ll have Mike Breen on the mic (albeit, with Richard Jefferson and Doris Burke)

this gives us legs in the 4th to play properly

And it's also the correct personnel to battle the Pacers wings, provided a second ball handler to beat the press, and get the ball to KAT in position to cause damage.

Their bench isn't that good, if you can stop TJ from hitting all his BS mid-range shots they don't have much because Mathurin is a trainwreck.

Malicious call

To be fair, we got blown out in the first half.

TJ's a real pain in the ass.

Sheppard has been solid for them. Obi giveth, Obi taketh.

I think it’s better to put as much size on Siakam as possible even if he’s making them at least make him work harder.

Also we didn’t start out the gates putting ourself in a 10+ point hole with Robinson starting.

Giannis cannot hit those threes that KAT hit. Very few players can.

KAT earned his keep tonight. Hell of a second half.

Lineup change and Delon Wright and Shamet playing....why does it take so long for these adjustments?

But we are back in this series!

Mrs. MP is gonna make that basement your permanent residence watching the game on your phone at a wedding... but worth it!

She actually wasn't there. Was with my brothers it was a cousins weddings like 4 hours away and no kids we allowed so they are young and we didn't feel comfortable leaving with a sitter that far away.

But it's hilarious she texted me during the wedding not how the wedding was going. She texted me how the Knicks were doing.

She knows me too well lol

She is locked in!

Not that it needs to be said but you're a better man than me cause I wouldn't have went.

The only way im missing a ECF knicks game for a wedding is if my wife makes me go and even then it depends on who's wedding it is. Ive got a decent couch and am well practiced on begging for forgiveness.

All we have to do to win game 4 is go down 20 in the first half

They took him out with fouls in the first specifically the halifraud armbar for his 3rd on the overturned and 1. That just delayed what was coming though

Mikal is 10-35 (28%) from 3PT over his last 8 games.

6x this season he’s made 5 or more threes and 16x he’s made at least 4. FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING HOLY WITH THE KNICKS CAN WE GET A MIKAL EXPLOSION GAME 4.

Clyde_Style · Post #397 » by **Clyde_Style** » Mon May 26, 2025 3:47 am

In the last half of the 4th quarter Indy was overpassing and giving up relatively open looks. I saw them do it at least a half dozen times

This was the effect our defense had on them. They were doubting their own shot and punting the ball to a teammate to take the shot

It worked very well and resulted in more shots taken late in the clock with fewer second chances

Red Vines · Post #398 » by **Red Vines** » Mon May 26, 2025 3:47 am

Please keep using the bench, not many teams have the luxury of having guys rested ready to go this time of year. It's the last thing the Pacers want, they want to wear us down.

I wouldn’t have turned up to my own wedding I’d say we gotta reschedule or I’m out

Idk either but we need 3 more games like that from him.

More importantly I dont think Brunson is going to have another bad game.

Its crazy to think we won that with how off he was.
