Thibs using only 6-7 players really wears out the players.

Stat I just saw on twitter:

The Knicks have played 7 games and a half so far in these playoffs. Josh Hart has sat for 15 minutes of that.

That is absurd. Thibs should be arrested.

Yeah, I heard Thibs in one interview and he said Hart should never sit a minute.

If the Brunson injury is serious, we might as well cancel the rest of EC Playoffs and just wait for whoever comes out of the West to face the C’s in June.

Love the pace that Indy plays with especially against a Knicks team that’s not utilizing its bench. We should take note if we end up facing the Knicks.

It's now obvious those 2 teams that played in the in-season tournament are a joke!

And to think the Lakers hanged a banner for that in-season chip.

Ugh!

Pacers can’t get any stops. They’re only hope is to outrun the Knicks and hope the Knicks miss or get gassed.

Any team that starts Nesmith shouldn’t really be taken seriously. Kid is all hustle and energy mixed with trash.

Their fans would be happy they made the playoffs and won a series (admittedly against a injury decimated and old Bucks team)

How is Brunson allowed to use that forearm shiver over and over?

OG Anunoby OUT. Hamstring. Thibs really not doing these players any favors by playing 6-7 guys.
