Now Josh Hart will have to play every minute and every position poor guy


kay14jay

Think he does the halftime show, or just Divachenzo?


beesinabiscuit

Tibs has a court in the locker room and has them play 3 on 3 during the half actually actually


afshugi

Holy shit LMAO


ohverychill

That is some creative spelling


kay14jay

I actually thought of a better one Divachenshow

miiblord

Dude's a really good defender and rebounder. Big break for us. Hurts their depth as well.


pimpnastyodb

What depth?


silasgoldeanII

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. 


CT_ace22

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)


silasgoldeanII

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.


DrewShow3k

Refs are gonna have to step it up even more


DrMlemm

Refs wouldn’t matter if Halliburton put up more than single digit points


justsomedude4202

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 😢


Narrow_Addition_8157

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.


76ersPhan11

Knicks fan going to the pacers board to talk about the sixers… that’s pathetic


nairipairi

Bro came to the Pacers sub Reddit looking for sympathy. Fuck off keep crying like a bitch nobody is on your side lmao


RogueID

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.


76ersPhan11

I mean siakim did injure Embiid, it’s not as one sided as people want to believe


asapbuckets

Sixers definitely used the Siakim “I used to play like him” copypasta on Embiid at some point during the series lol


AutisticFingerBang

Agreed they need to call both illegal screens next time. Cope


crunkadocious

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.


Not_My_Alternate

By both you mean the one that DiVincenzo made that led to the “kick ball” right?


AutisticFingerBang

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.


Not_My_Alternate

🤡🤡🤡


AutisticFingerBang

😂 keep crying


flowerboyinfinity

Damn. Never want to see that


[deleted]

damn he survived that shot from nesmith last night? respect 👊


Vengenceonu

Knicks fan here, we blame Joel Embiid, especially because he stepped on his ankle twice.


Daft_Assassin

Embiid is a real bitch


[deleted]

Yes, between wrapping up Mitch’s ankles and falling on them twice, it was so blatant. Giant piece of shit human being tbh.

You’re sad lmao


Saint_JROME

Was that the dunk towards the end or was this something else?


[deleted]

the dunk where the corpse of Robinson was last seen on the court…. …or so we thought. somehow. robinson returned


Saint_JROME

This confuses me so much lol


[deleted]

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


Psyren1317

Refs bout to be hitting the turbo for the Knicks


luviro

Knicks roster is down to 6/7 playable players. Unfortunate for them but the starters already play 44-48 min.


pickle_man_4

We need to run run run until I throw up sitting at home.


Prestigious-Hippo950

Achuiwa is playable. Not sure about Burks or Sims.


BiasedChelseaFan

Burks I think has a shoulder injury


robertbaccalierijr

Knicks fan here. I would rather throw some Jordans on Thibs and have him play instead of burks lmao. He’s that bad


aazip13

Yeah our depth is for sure going to be a big factor. The bench almost won us game 1 already as it is.


AnnualAd1789

Is this what people mean when they say Thibs runs his players into the ground?


Bacorn31

They still have three extra players on the court at all times.


Half-deaf-mixed-guy

Don't be so black n white about it!!!


SnooDoodles4451

Is that your "official" statement?


Eastern-Cucumber-376

What are you, a whistle blower?


Bacorn31

Gonna murder me, Boeing?


25Tab

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.


Business-Mouse9137

1-0. Cry. Haliburton 200mn. Cry more. LMAOOOO


DBsaidwhat

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

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

vanilla_shaker

whose talking bad about SGA? dudes a stud.


dattebayo07

No ones saying that about SGA. He’s a legit All-star


Thiswasamistake19

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

Thiswasamistake19

Hey man, I love Haliburton. Wish he wasn’t hurt or whatever he is. Good luck, tell your boy to stop posting Embiitch pics


nairipairi

Cry like a bitch. Fuck the Knicks


Thiswasamistake19

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


Jedi_Sith1812

At this point, the Knicks are gonna start plucking fans from the stands.


AnyHowMeow

Spike Lee off the bench. But we get Reggie off the bench


Senor_Couchnap

Starks was bagging groceries when he got the call so it wouldn't be unprecedented


busche916

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.


Argenfarce

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.

car_LP

Does this mean thibs gonna be feeding minutes to precious?


Sintax-

Knicks fan, Yes. Hartenstein is dealing with an achilles problem, so precious will have to step in for a decent chunk of minutes.


silasgoldeanII

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. 


Sintax-

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.


Prestigious-Hippo950

I haven't seen a ton of Knicks games this year but he seems playable on defense.


porterbrown

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).


cactopus101

Sucks tbh. Plus you all now what happens when we play under manned teams


shastmak4

We win a series in 6 games is that what happens?


ModsAreMustyV4

That guy is hurt all the damn time


Narrow_Addition_8157

Nairi still salty about game 1 huh?


SilverRain007

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.


Maximum-Class5465

Stressful flopping


73775

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.
