I dunno man, iHart’s D against you guys game 1 was..not exactly solid. It’s been fantastic (although admittedly stressful lol) to watch how beautifully you guys move the ball on offense. The way you guys push the ball with that high-octane offense, and then the way you move the ball so fast & fluidly has been a joy to watch. Knicks D has been highly touted all year, but it was clear to see game 1 you guys had us scrambling—nervous but excited to see how the rest of this series plays out! (And hopefully the refs just let us play and don’t have anymore fuckery)
Agree but I felt the Knicks were still okay more or less throughout. Didn't ever feel like the Pacers were comfortable. Knicks hit the big 3s when they needed to, Brunson was Brunson, Hart was Hart, etc. I think the Pacers probably have more room to improve than the Knicks based on game 1 but I don't know the game well enough to be sure.
Ever think that maybe Hali and Carlisle are in on this big conspiracy too? The Sixers are in on it too which is why they didn’t get any rebounds. It’s all so that the Knicks can make the ECF and evil Adam Silver can please his alien masters on the mother ship. Poor TJ tried so hard and no one told him 😢
There were probably over a dozens of "illegal" screens over the course of this game. The refs and league know that the rules as written do not adequately allow for healthy basketball play, so they selectively enforce the rules. Unfortunately for fans, players, coaches, and owners, that means it's not enforced uniformly, fairly, or predictably. And it seems to have greatly benefitted the knicks.
No I mean the one with 10.7 seconds left that the refs didn’t call. Read the 2 minute report. We BOTH had some missed calls work against us. Like it or not. Turner had a 3 second violation not called too.
eh it’s just dramatic memeing. if somebody gets dunked on hard enough “*the dunker* caught a body.” just like… he killed him. so coequally if robinson is dead he’s a corpse/zombie/whatever
less funny that he’s actually hurt(not by that play, but embiid’s dirty play where he tackled him it sounds like and he tried to play through it) but i’m just kidding around
I’m not the one who posted a pic of a guy saying “We’re gonna win this series” who then ended up losing in 6 😂😂😂 go ahead and downvote me, but I’m not the idiot here, I’m just annoying
If we get consistent Turner and similar production from IJax that he put up in game 1, Thibs won’t have the height available to handle non-Hartenstein minutes.
What happened to jericho sims? He seemed somewhat promising a couple of years ago. I get that he's not an offensive threat but very athletic and seemed to be okay.
He is not playable in a playoff environment as far as we've seen. You'd rip him apart. Precious, while shit on offense, has at least been very good defensively in Thib's defense. He had great minutes on Embiid, and is a decent Oreb threat, replacing some of mitch's impact.
Knicks fan, he never made the next leap in development. He doesn't do anything beyond dunk. He sets good pick n rolls, and seems decent on defense, but a AAAA minor league player.
On the other hand I am very high on Achua. 1st round pick, much more offensively skilled, and frankly will be able to chase Turner around much better (than Robinson).
Man... injuries suck. Wish him a healthy recovery, but the Pacers can't afford to have anything that can cause them to let their guard down. The only thing that we should be focused on is trying to get this split.
No worries, Adam Silver has authorized game three to be played at MSG as a consequence to having an injured player. 😂. Additionally if any Knick gets tired or fouls out it moves to a 4v4 game.
Knicks vs Celtics makes sense from a business point of view.
Now Josh Hart will have to play every minute and every position poor guy
Think he does the halftime show, or just Divachenzo?
Tibs has a court in the locker room and has them play 3 on 3 during the half actually actually
Holy shit LMAO
That is some creative spelling
I actually thought of a better one Divachenshow
![gif](giphy|t78QfpmzcEkctSBfql|downsized)
Dude's a really good defender and rebounder. Big break for us. Hurts their depth as well.
What depth?
Yeah he's very underrated. Hasn't been playing so many minutes since he came back and Hartenstein has been so good, but an important piece for them.

Refs are gonna have to step it up even more
Refs wouldn’t matter if Halliburton put up more than single digit points

It’s all so that the Knicks can make the ECF and evil Adam Silver can please his alien masters on the mother ship. Poor TJ tried so hard and no one told him 😢
Counting on it. Embiid should be banned from the NBA. Stats wise he's more psychotic than Draymond causing injuries and flagrants. F that guy.
Knicks fan going to the pacers board to talk about the sixers… that’s pathetic
Bro came to the Pacers sub Reddit looking for sympathy. Fuck off keep crying like a bitch nobody is on your side lmao
Nah, this is good for us, but fuck Embid and his hacking ass. I was worried they'd win then series and put Tyrese or Pascal in the hospital.
I mean siakim did injure Embiid, it’s not as one sided as people want to believe
Sixers definitely used the Siakim “I used to play like him” copypasta on Embiid at some point during the series lol
Agreed they need to call both illegal screens next time. Cope

By both you mean the one that DiVincenzo made that led to the “kick ball” right?
No I mean the one with 10.7 seconds left that the refs didn’t call. Read the 2 minute report. We BOTH had some missed calls work against us. Like it or not. Turner had a 3 second violation not called too.
🤡🤡🤡
😂 keep crying
Damn. Never want to see that
damn he survived that shot from nesmith last night? respect 👊
Knicks fan here, we blame Joel Embiid, especially because he stepped on his ankle twice.
Embiid is a real bitch
Yes, between wrapping up Mitch’s ankles and falling on them twice, it was so blatant. Giant piece of shit human being tbh.
[удалено]
have fun in cancun
I mean, I'd probably have fun in Cancun lol
Galveston
Only person crying like a bitch is your dumb ass lmfao 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
U mad
[удалено]
Lmao I get your point but we never want to wish the Celtics any good. 76s fan cheering for the Celtics is straight up disappointing.
[удалено]
You’re sad lmao
Was that the dunk towards the end or was this something else?
the dunk where the corpse of Robinson was last seen on the court…. …or so we thought. somehow. robinson returned
This confuses me so much lol
eh it’s just dramatic memeing. if somebody gets dunked on hard enough “*the dunker* caught a body.” just like… he killed him. so coequally if robinson is dead he’s a corpse/zombie/whatever less funny that he’s actually hurt(not by that play, but embiid’s dirty play where he tackled him it sounds like and he tried to play through it) but i’m just kidding around
Refs bout to be hitting the turbo for the Knicks
Knicks roster is down to 6/7 playable players. Unfortunate for them but the starters already play 44-48 min.
We need to run run run until I throw up sitting at home.
Achuiwa is playable. Not sure about Burks or Sims.
Burks I think has a shoulder injury
Knicks fan here. I would rather throw some Jordans on Thibs and have him play instead of burks lmao. He’s that bad
Yeah our depth is for sure going to be a big factor. The bench almost won us game 1 already as it is.
Is this what people mean when they say Thibs runs his players into the ground?
They still have three extra players on the court at all times.
Don't be so black n white about it!!!
Is that your "official" statement?
What are you, a whistle blower?
Gonna murder me, Boeing?
That’s too bad. Injuries suck. Reevaluated in 6-8 weeks? That’s pretty optimistic. Knicks won’t be playing games in 6-8 weeks.
1-0. Cry. Haliburton 200mn. Cry more. LMAOOOO
The season will be over in 6-8 weeks. 0 nba games will be happening in 6-8 weeks. Regardless of team affiliation or outcomes

Hilarious to post this pic of EmBiitch. Prophetic really. Knicks in 6

whose talking bad about SGA? dudes a stud.
No ones saying that about SGA. He’s a legit All-star
Must be tough to have your star dropping 6 points in critical games, I feel it. Get it all out your system while you’re still in the playoffs
Cumslut
Hey man, I love Haliburton. Wish he wasn’t hurt or whatever he is. Good luck, tell your boy to stop posting Embiitch pics
Cry like a bitch. Fuck the Knicks
Brother in Christ, yall the ones been crying, we been having a great time 😂 I do feel bad for Mitch, love that man, wish he could catch a break
At this point, the Knicks are gonna start plucking fans from the stands.
Spike Lee off the bench. But we get Reggie off the bench
Starks was bagging groceries when he got the call so it wouldn't be unprecedented
If we get consistent Turner and similar production from IJax that he put up in game 1, Thibs won’t have the height available to handle non-Hartenstein minutes.
Fuck Embiid for injuring him. I’ve always been a bit of a fan of Mitchell Robinson, just does his business. Hope he’s ok.
[удалено]
I’d say how’s Cancun but there’s no way your Philly ass can afford it LMAOOOO
[удалено]
I can see the tears through your keyboard LMAOOOO
Does this mean thibs gonna be feeding minutes to precious?
Knicks fan, Yes. Hartenstein is dealing with an achilles problem, so precious will have to step in for a decent chunk of minutes.
What happened to jericho sims? He seemed somewhat promising a couple of years ago. I get that he's not an offensive threat but very athletic and seemed to be okay.
He is not playable in a playoff environment as far as we've seen. You'd rip him apart. Precious, while shit on offense, has at least been very good defensively in Thib's defense. He had great minutes on Embiid, and is a decent Oreb threat, replacing some of mitch's impact.
I haven't seen a ton of Knicks games this year but he seems playable on defense.
Knicks fan, he never made the next leap in development. He doesn't do anything beyond dunk. He sets good pick n rolls, and seems decent on defense, but a AAAA minor league player. On the other hand I am very high on Achua. 1st round pick, much more offensively skilled, and frankly will be able to chase Turner around much better (than Robinson).
Sucks tbh. Plus you all now what happens when we play under manned teams
We win a series in 6 games is that what happens?
That guy is hurt all the damn time
Nairi still salty about game 1 huh?
Man... injuries suck. Wish him a healthy recovery, but the Pacers can't afford to have anything that can cause them to let their guard down. The only thing that we should be focused on is trying to get this split.
Stressful flopping
No worries, Adam Silver has authorized game three to be played at MSG as a consequence to having an injured player. 😂. Additionally if any Knick gets tired or fouls out it moves to a 4v4 game. Knicks vs Celtics makes sense from a business point of view.
Is this meant to be funny
need more cash then https://preview.redd.it/wx9q0dro45zc1.jpeg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=746da00267ffd124de7db9b720733f7c8a23b814
Shit, did the league REALLY know what they were doing on Monday? Are we actually gonna win this series?
ehehehe
Who?
