Knicks

Will be a tough loss. They had this game at the 9 minute mark. Pacers killed the Knicks on the offensive boards the last few minutes.
 
Knicks absolutely beat themselves, missed foul shots, unproductive drives and got killed on the boards in the 4th. Hartenstein spent the 4th quarter tipping the ball out to the Pacers for 2nd chances
 
That was a missed call on Nembhard, Jalen should have went to the line.

Knicks should send missed calls to the nba office.

Gotta make sure Indiana don't get favorable calls now.

IMO, injuries or a lot of minutes were not the reason the Knicks lost tonight. The game was there to be had and they didn’t get it done down the stretch. It happens. Let’s face it, Brunson had a terrible game for him, again, it only proves he is human.
If it was tired legs, the Knicks will lose the series because there is no rest available to untire them at this point of the season.

Hartenstein drives me nuts with his tipping of rebounds. Only time to do that is if you really can’t grab it but a lot of times he seems to do it trying to make a play.

Not to mention Brunson is playing hurt, and Nesmith was allowed to get in Brunson’s grill on defense (good job by Carlisle crying about calls).

Yet, despite everything, Indiana still required a desperation three pointer with the shot clock expiring by Nembhard to win that game.

Exactly, they could have and should have won which would have been huge and allowed them to relax a bit about the injuries, at least for this series. Now it's going to be tough especially if Brunson is hurting. Can't expect another unconscious shooting game like that out of Donte.
