Mastodon @New York Knicks [KnickMuse] So let me get this straight: • You blew a double-digit lead on a team that had 5.5 playable players • Your team shot 10/17 on free throws • You let the Knicks shoot 57% FG AND YOU’RE SAYING YOU LOST BECAUSE YOU’RE A SMALL MARKET?
This is perfect

Bunch of cry babies, sweep these fuckers please
Makes sense that they come up small little dick motherfuckers always have something to cry about
Someone should let Rick Carlisle know that the Western Conference Final is probably going to be Oklahoma City vs Minnesota.
Bitches on r/nba are still crying despite game 2 being reffed fine. They’re making up stories now of the first half just being bad. Oh well, pacers still choked.
These motherfuckers really got a fucking complex. Mind you, Indiana is basketball state, like, it might as well be big market. Hoosiers and shit, they act like they’re a semi-pro team from Nantucket or some shit. Fucking, have some pride.
We’re hicks ITS NOT FAIR!!!!
Most pathetic shit I’ve heard from a coach in awhile
That Pacers D is D-3 bad 😄😄😄😃
I can’t remember the last time I saw a coach cry this much about the officiating after only two games.
You’d think that the Pacers were leading these games and had the wins snatched from them, rather than getting destroyed on the boards late in the game, missing FTs and turning the ball over.
They got a gift of no Brunson for an entire quarter and a half and they didn’t capitalize. That’s on them.
Fans are just so triggered by our team.They can’t make any sense of how a team like us with so many injured players is scrapping their way to wins.They default to blaming refs.
The NBA playoffs are featuring Indiana, Cleveland, OKC, Minnesota, and Denver but the small market team doesn’t get a fair shake? Just craziness.
Respect to Hali tho, he explicitly said they got outplayed regardless of the officating. I know most Knicks fans don’t like Hali but credit where credit is due.
Carlisle on the other hand ……
Story of Knicks fans’ lives. Still holding out hope for better days!
You should have seen the shit they said to Bucks fans. Missing half our lineup wasn’t a valid excuse according to delusional trash Pacers fans. Now they are making excuses after they lost to a shorthanded Knicks??? Lmao!!! Fuck the Pacers. 3 time ABA champion irrelevant ass franchise. I hope you guys fucking sweep them.
Rick Carlisle and Nick Nurse gonna bond this summer at a girls spa retreat and get matching mani-pedi’s
Yes the nba has always favored New York that’s why they’ve been past the first round so many times these past two decades.
Remember Hawks before they even played a game cried about how physical we are and the refs. This is some shitty tactic to lean on the refs.
all respect lost for rick carlisle. you dont get to blame this one on the refs. yall had a 23 point swing and you blew it. see you in indianapolis.
carlisle and social media tryna gaslight everybody into thinking we got bailed by refs, suck our dick from behind lmao
They never complain about the big market Lakers teams, but whenever the Knicks have even the smallest success it’s the league rigging it for the big market team.
The NBA cares more about superstars than big market teams.
Yes, your city sucks
Yes, you are a small market
No, that’s not how/why you lost lol
If the NBA gave a shit about market size we would be Number one on the help list. We’re the most valuable basketball franchise even though the last chip we won was prob during our grandparents era. We’ve never gotten the number one pick in god knows how long. And frankly we’ve been in the gutter for the past 30 years with some hope sprinkled in during lebrons run. If anything there’s an argument that the NBA helps small market teams over us. LeBron to Cleveland, wemby, Duncan, Robinson to the spurs, Zion to the pelicans etc. small market teams hit on generational prospects way more than big markets.

Rick Carlisle “and then I sat T. J. McConnell in crunchtime”
It’s a standard coaching practice down 0-2 heading home to try to get favorable calls to turn the tide.
somebody give bro a diaper “we deserve a fair shot” cry me a river
The excuse du jour! 🇫🇷
Rick lost cause he a shit coach. McConnell was putting the clamps on Brunson and dude doesn’t even play in the 4th, I mean I’m happy he didn’t play him but man, how did he not see how well McConnell was defending one of the best clutch players. The best decision he made was ejecting himself
