“KAT during a timeout”

[matchman]

Btw our team still have at least two players we can unleash as secret weapon

Elder: Achiuwa
Younger: Hukporti

We have enough players to run an all-time two big lineup, this can spare Josh Hart from guarding Siakam, whom he admitted he had trouble to hold up(in roommate podcast).

If Hukporti is fully healthy without any loss of lateral quickness, he can at least outplay that Tony Bradley guy.

Good morning. GO KNICKS!!!!

Both teams have had their trademark victories in the playoffs this series. Pacers win the improbable last minute comeback and us with the "come from down 20" on the road wins. We are still down a game. Hard to beat Carlisle two times in a row but we just have to grind it out.

I don't get this Jim Carey love man, in his coaching career, he's missed the playoffs 7/23 seasons, lost in the first round 8/23 seasons, so 65% of his career hasn't made the playoffs or won a playoff round. Why are people treating this guy as if he's Pop?

Cause they hate Thibs and would also hate Carlisle if he was our coach too.

he's a bum but his team is deep and has a bunch of shot makers on it. they have 2 guys in the starting lineup shooting 50% from the field and 50% from 3, the other 3 are shooting 40% from 3. never seen TJ miss a shot from 10-12 feet. even the bums they bring in can hit 3's

their team isn't great but they conveniently get hot in the playoffs

No Cam...his missed early shot clock chucks are an automatic Pacers bucket.

Stagger Brunson, KAT...Play Wright and Shamet....3O minutes for Deuce.

Starters and Josh have energy to defend in crunch time. Win.

Sub Brunson and Mitch at the 5 or 6 minute mark for Deuce and Hart. Bring Brunson back when KAT sits and vice versa. Sub in Shamet and Wright for Mikal and OG when they need some rest for 5-6 minutes late 1st/3rd. Finish the game with the best 5.

exactly this, you stagger the top 2 guys minutes so its not just sitting around taking turns on offense and defensively its 1 meh defender and generally 4 good ones. Knicks figured something out game 3. Tie series coming up tonight while all pacer fans thinking win because it happened in the first 2 rounds.

[Davis18]

Let's get control of the series with the win today.
We need another big game from Kat.
All starters need to have good game.
Let's go Knicks!

NYK tie this tonight and the Pacers are in a world of trouble, can't keep thinking you will just win a 3rd road game at MSG in 1 series.

[Lord Commander]

How many times have we seen Thibs achieve success through happenstance, only to revert to his preferred rotations? I'm nervous about tonight. I need to see the same rotations (Shammet, Wright, etc.), and philosophy - allowing KAT to go off instead of Brunson dominating the shot clock - play out consistently to feel confident. Otherwise, I'll have the same familiar palpitations.

[Spree2Houston]

We’re tying the series tonight

Rick Carlisle can actually coach a game. Thibs doesn’t have that quality

[seren]

We have better talent than they do. All we need is a complete game from four-five players. We should have been up 3-0.

OG talking trash has to be the most sophisticated conversation ever.

I beg to differ pertaining to the trajectory of your shot. Allow me if I may to alter its path. Good day to you sir and GTFO.
