    How many Knicks must fall for a potential ECF berth?

  2. SiphenPrax

    They blew us out in Game 4, we blew them out in Game 5, and they blew us out again in Game 6.

    Game 7 is gonna be brutal man😭

  3. GGezpzMuppy

    Won’t someone think of us neutrals??

    Enough blowouts please, all we ask is for some close games these playoffs lol.

  4. at this rate Thibs is gonna have to give Spike Lee some court time in game 7

  5. Tom_Brady_Cheats

    This is all thibs fault. Not the fact that the Pacers shot 55% from the field, totally revamped their rebounding effort and dominated the assists.

  6. Brad-Stevens

    I want someone to do a deep dive of the record of teams wearing all black to the game

    Gotta be under .250 win%

  7. KyleRaynerGotSweg

    This was over the second I saw Stephen A. picked the Knicks to win

  8. Solid-Confidence-966

    Game 7 at the garden, it’s gonna be electric man

  9. The entire Eastern Conference bracket serves to give the Celtics the easiest and most injury-ridden path to the Finals

  10. HokageEzio

    Whatever happens, Knicks Pacers in the Garden for a Game 7 is exactly what basketball is about.

    Fuck all of you, I wish you nothing but pain and suffering on Sunday. Knicks in 7.

  11. Two Game 7s on Sunday! Nobody bother me. It’s going to be electric

  12. ColtCallahan

    For Josh Hart to go to the bench and then leave the game he must be seriously fucking hurt.

  13. So, if OKC beats Dallas tomorrow, we’ll have 3 conference semi-finals series going to 7 games in the same postseason for the first time since 2006 (if my memory is correct.)

    Grant me my wish, oh great and wise basketball gods.

  14. HRTDreamsStillCisTho

    Any team playing the pacers is cursed watch out boston

  15. egregious888

    Alright, call your random game 7 legacy performance. I think Toppin’s going for 30 and 8

  16. Effective-Savings-93

    Nembhard 24
    Nesmith 24
    Mathurin 21
    Jackson 22
    Sheppard 20
    Walker 20

    Win or lose game 7 this pacer team has a bright fn future.

  17. Hendo8888

    We have now gone 2 straight months without a loss at home. So crazy

  18. JocaComManteiga

    It’s insane how every 2/3 games the Knicks seem to lose a rotation player

  19. batmans420

    Currently deluding myself into thinking we can win a Game 7 at MSG. Either way what an interesting series

  20. It’s gonna come down to if Josh Hart is healthy for game 7 or not. He’s a huge tide turner for the Knick’s. If the pattern continues then knicks will win, but honestly it’s a toss up to who shows up.

  21. Few-Addendum464

    I respect the Pacers for going undefeated at home during the playoffs no matter what happens on Sunday.

  22. ThinkThankThonk

    Celtics with an easy finals run you mean Pacers with the scrappiest chip we’ve ever seen

  23. Tall_Succotash

    The pacers did that thing where they finally realized the Knicks are kinda small and had pascal finally work that post.

    MSG is gonna be crazy isn’t it?

  24. If you told me the pacers would be one game away from the ecf a couple of months ago I would have laughed. Whatever happened I’m proud and the future is very bright.

  25. gradedonacurve

    How did it take Siakam 3 games to figure out the Knicks had no forwards left?
