NFT: Pacers @ Knicks - Game 5 - 8 PM

Doubledeuce22 : 5/14/2024 7:57 am
OG is out again going to need big games from Divo and McBride if this team has any chance of recovering. Hopefully the MSG crowd is a factor. Let’s get this pivotal game!

Keep it going.
Fuck all the way off, Stan.  
bceagle05 : 5/14/2024 10:18 pm : link
Fuckin bitch.
Brunson  
Eightshamrocks : 5/14/2024 10:19 pm : link
Might get 50
Isaiah  
bluefin : 5/14/2024 10:21 pm : link
10 offensive rebounds in 27.5 minutes
Alec Burks holy shit.  
bceagle05 : 5/14/2024 10:24 pm : link
He's so back.
Thanks to those of you that talked me off the ledge earlier.  
PetesHereNow : 5/14/2024 10:25 pm : link
This has been a very fun game to watch. As an aside, are we back in the 90s?

Knicks and Pacers are scrapping it up in the playoffs and a Bad Boys movie with Will Smith and Martin Lawrence is coming out?
Still time left but regardless of result  
Chris684 : 5/14/2024 10:25 pm : link
Some real positives tonight.

Brunson and IHart looking good and healthy.
Burks and Precious looking like they can be pieces off the bench the rest of this series and if we move on.
Deuce looks good in the starting lineup.

I was pretty pessimistic coming into tonight, but not only can we still win this, I’m confident we can close it out Friday night at Indy.
I don’t mind VanGundy  
steve in ky : 5/14/2024 10:25 pm : link
He’s got dry humor about him that I think often is misconstrued
Haliburton leaving the arena tonight...  
bceagle05 : 5/14/2024 10:25 pm : link
iHart just equaled the Knicks record for offensive rebounds in the  
Optimus-NY : 5/14/2024 10:27 pm : link
playoffs. He's tied with the Oakman (1994).

Seriously. I’m sure we’ve all ripped him at some point since the trade, but he’s been fucking gold off the bench in this series
Time to rest Brunson  
Kanavis : 5/14/2024 10:27 pm : link
They can hold them off without him at this point.
Really happy for Burks  
nygiants16 : 5/14/2024 10:27 pm : link
he was shunned, deservedly so, but playing off the ball with defenders and ball movers around him has unlocked him
Have to re-sign Harstein  
Eightshamrocks : 5/14/2024 10:27 pm : link
This guy is a machine with his offensive boards and passing as a big man.
Also big ups to Hartenstein  
nygiants16 : 5/14/2024 10:28 pm : link
i have been hard on him all playoffs, he was an absolute menace on the boards
Had a horrible feeling about tonight's game  
bceagle05 : 5/14/2024 10:28 pm : link
and tried not to bring the bad vibes into the Knicks threads on here. Glad I was dead wrong. Great performance.
Isaiah - 12 OREBS

and counting - Indy cannot compete with Hartenstein dominance

Haha this is Thibs we’re talking about. He won’t rest his starters if we were up 50
This was a real gut check game and Knicks answered

In a big way

well deserved boys
Knicks haven't lost a playoff series in which they won 3 games  
shyster : 5/14/2024 10:33 pm : link
since the infamous 1997 series vs Miami.
SVG going to bat for Thibs in a big way.  
bceagle05 : 5/14/2024 10:33 pm : link
Good for him.
Nice night missed watching the first 3 quarters  
Stu11 : 5/14/2024 10:33 pm : link
Coaching my son's baseball game. He hit an absolute nuke and the Knicks are up 24. Whomever had Burks as a scoring machine in this playoff series on their bingo card more power to ya...
MAMADI!!

I oddly was confident all day and then like a half hour before the game i was fricken nervous as all hell
Held the Pacers to 90 points  
nygiants16 : 5/14/2024 10:37 pm : link

I just feared Brunson was too beat up for another 40-point night. He looked fantastic.

Pacers win big

And they are laughing, taunting, and talking sh#t. Knicks win big... All business.
Someday we're gonna be asked who scored points for the Knicks  
PetesHereNow : 5/14/2024 10:39 pm : link
In the 2024 postseason.

None of us are getting Mamadi lol
Absolute balls out game  
mfsd : 5/14/2024 10:40 pm : link
This team once again shows they have some serious guts. What an awesome run so far, let’s take these guys in game 6 and end it!

Yup, good call.

Brunson clearly hobbled - never mentions it, doesn't appear on the injury report at all. Hali says he's hobbled, milks it for all its worth, appears on the injury report every day.
The Posers lack brains and heart.  
Optimus-NY : 5/14/2024 10:43 pm : link
Damn. Despite their talent, they're as soft soft as soft serve ice cream and are mentally weak as fudge.
Hali took 9 shots  
bluefin : 5/14/2024 10:43 pm : link
He played petrified.

It really is impressive how Burks has been taken out of the deep-freezer and stepped right into big spots. Testament to his preparation and focus.
Didnt see Haliburton  
nygiants16 : 5/14/2024 10:45 pm : link
did he play? I didnt see him dancing or screaming like an idiot or pointing at Knicks defenders and laughing...

A lot of us called for McBride in the starting lineup  
bceagle05 : 5/14/2024 10:45 pm : link
right when OG was ruled out. Made a big difference.
Everyone back on the bandwagon  
bluefin : 5/14/2024 10:46 pm : link
All are forgiven for thinking this series was over after the Mother’s Day massacre, because it’s easy to underestimate this team’s resilience.
I should have known better

Just having him as a ball handler is huge to , him and Hart are deadly when teams double Brunson
Wow. Did they need a game like that.  
Matt M. : 5/14/2024 10:49 pm : link
Shut up the critics of their talent, their minutes, their coach, and most importantly shut up the Pacers. They didn't run their mouths until they got up big. And they did it all despite what I would call a lopsided game from the officials.

I have to think Burks healed up his shoulder spending all that time on the bench. The important thing is he can give them important minutes and he's shooting better than Bogdanovich was.

All the talk on the radio today was how they would probably squeek by because of the Garden crowd and then Indy beats them at home. I think a game like this was such a statement it may just buoy them to win in 6.

I can't believe the thuggish ball they let the Pacers get away with.

Wally just made a great observation.

Crowd was late to get back to their seats after halftime - Pacers made a quick run with Turner while the atmosphere was quiet.

How about him taking his normal rest at the end of the 3rd and beginning of the 4th with them down 20?

Guy is soft as shit.

Awesome win for the Knicks. Love this team.
Can the Knicks resign both OG and Hartenstien?
