Impressive Knicks, i think that's it. You are the best team to watch this playoffs, lack of personell but getting it done anyway.

That has nothing to do with anything I said.

The game was over. There was nothing that was going to happen to change the outcome of that game. Indiana hit us with a haymaker in the 1st Q. The game was over in the 1st & everyone knew it. Our entire team was gassed & Indiana couldn't miss. Especially if Brunson wasn't right not to. mention the entire teams shots were short all night


I wasn't talking about the players, or the game specifically, none of that matters to what I said. Even if you want to rationalize how quiet it was, there's still another half to the equation.

He didn't have the mindset.

Melo was basically a ball stopper. It's why he struggled to stay with teams late in his career.

Nembhard calling his own number those few plays in a row killed Pacers momentum. Where’s Haliburton? Be a floor general dude

IHart's rebounding might just be the difference. He is going to GET PAID this summer. And yet, I don't think he wants to leave the Knicks.


I'm hoping that he & Mitch just get married and share an income moving forward. IH deserves more than we can pay him this summer, but what price do you put on true love?

That last sequence summed it up. Team just making extra passes and getting out and running.

Melo chose to go there. He had a chance to join LeBron/Wade in FA. He chose the money and stayed in Denver. He went to NY to be the man in a major market.

How the Pacers even managed to keep this game close for 2.5 quarters is amazing. This is a dispicable showing.
