2025 EASTERN CONFERENCE FINALS: #3 New York Knicks vs #4 Indiana Pacers (IND WINS 4-2)

[DowJones]

The officials can’t keep missing these fouls on OG if they are going to reward Brunson for his constant flopping, it’s gross.

[KO7]

Nembhard needs to be better on the offensive end.

[knicksfan974]

Siakam on the leak out is deadly. No one on the Knicks are even trying to slow that duded down.

These leak outs must be eliminated in the second half, cannot give up such easy buckets.

[Mk0]

OG definitely showcasing some interesting ways to get open offensively. Knee in the nuts, slap in the face. Whatever works, I guess

This was a fun first half and the second half is gonna be even more fun. The game is about to become hella chippy.

that little slap was hilarious

that is the kinda sh#% you do to your sibling when mom isn't looking

[Marrs-Law]

bridges has taken haliburton out of this game - this is nuts how passive he's been.

I think Indy is in trouble. KAT and Brunson haven't gone off either. Once they do, it's good night. They ain't winning game 7 in NY.

The way things have gone, I think there's a good chance the Knicks would win the series if they just didn't choke away game one. (could still win anyway but point still stands)

[yoadknux]

Nembhard, Nesmith and McConnell have just been invisible offensively since game 3. Those three played a key role against the Cavs and Bucks, but have been a net negative offensively over the last three games.

[NiceLikeChrist]

Stop the turnovers and we blow it open. No reason for this team to forcing turnovers on us.

[EastonEddy]

Nembhard w 5 steals.

[Diop]

Wait, Nembhard and Nesmith are actually 2 different players?

Mikal and Miles Bridges arent actually brothers?

they ARE actually the same players. Miles is just his rap name

[NiceLikeChrist]

Nembhard, Nesmith and McConnell have just been invisible offensively since game 3. Those three played a key role against the Cavs and Bucks, but haven't been a net negative offensively over the last three games.

Who would’ve thought nembhart and nesmith wouldn’t shoot 55% and 50% from 3 all playoffs. I mean one of them is like a career 30% shooter

[xBulletproof]

As bad as Nembhard was on offense, he was better on defense.

He was a terror on both ends.

[Diop]

OG definitely showcasing some interesting ways to get open offensively. Knee in the nuts, slap in the face. Whatever works, I guess

the reaction was like the younger sibling trying to milk attention as well

Nembhard needs to take less shots. Hali & Nesmith more. On the other side, KAT needs to dominate the bench minutes in late 3rd to early 4th like the come back game. Indy has no defensive answer for him (except to not play the bench). Brunson will score in 2nd half I have no doubt.

Indy has the lead but things are going well for Knicks it feels like. Knicks can steal this game in 2nd half.

[Nuntius]

If you took away all baskets scored within 5 seconds by both teams Knicks would be up by like 10 right now. Indiana's halfcourt offense has been terrible.

I wouldn't say horrible. Nembhard has missed 3 wide open 3s (two of them in the corner) that came from our half-court offense. We have generated good looks from the halfcourt, we just aren't hitting them at a great rate.

[Shock Defeat]

Refs gonna have to show up in the 2nd half for the Knicks. And I think they will

[Nuntius]

In the RS. In the playoffs, he's shooting over 50% for his career and actually leads the whole NBA in 3p% in the playoffs

Well there's been a choke on both teams so that evens out I think. Knicks' role players are playing EXCEPTIONALL WELL in an away game while their big 2 are struggling due to Pacers' defense. I think once Pacers adjust to try and limit Knick's role players, their defense on KAT and Brunson will come unglued and all hell breaks loose, and Pacers lose.

[djsunyc]

nesmith hasnt heen the same since the ankle injury. siakam and turner have been horrendous on the glass.

[Patches Perry]

I don't have a dog in the fight in terms of preference on who OKC plays, but if OKC plays the Knicks, Mitchell Robinson is going to average 25 offensive rebounds per game.

[canada_dry]

I feel like this is my 7th time saving it this playoffs alone and many times before thst, but turner is way too soft on the boards. Like are his coaches not getting on him about this? Its making him look really bad
