  • we choked in game 1, letting the Pacers come back from a big deficit to causing a momentum shift.
  • there for: we go down big in the first game in Indiana + let Pacers choke away big lead = momentum shifts back to us and we win series.

Jedi mind trick level stuff from Thibs.

Go down 0-2 to give team more practice time for the finals. Make sure team doesn't get time off, thibs running a basketball team like a prison.

I cannot believe McConnell is still on the floor.

Congrats Knicks. Carlisle doesn’t want to win.

Why does it always feel like Knicks play better when brunson sits this series?

“The other day I saw one of his games. He was running with the ball at a hundred per cent full speed, I don’t know how many touches he took, maybe five or six, but the ball was glued to his foot. It’s practically impossible.”
