• 0:00
  Speaker 1: This is another one of these games that just defied
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: description and Karl Anthony Towns huge fourth quarter, but there
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: were lots of contributions from guys who don't get a
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: lot of run.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: For New York.
• 0:14
  Speaker 3: The Knicks actually played a bench and they played well.
• 0:17
  Speaker 4: I mean, it was unbelievable.
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: First of all, congratulations to the Knicks, but I gotta say,
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: if you just look at just common says, the Pacers
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: only scored forty two points in the second half, forty
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: two points in the second half. The Knicks scored thirty
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: six in the fourth quarter. When this game we talk
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: about it beginning us there, the Pacers cannot They're not
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: gonna beat them if they play in a half court game.
• 0:43
  Speaker 4: The half court offense is not that good. They have
• 0:46
  Speaker 4: to get out and run.
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: Kudos to the Knicks, but the Pacers, man, they played
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: the awful second half. They thought this hay, They didn't.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: They didn't get a Knicks in the credit of band resilient.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: They did not play in the second half. And I'm
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: happy for Cat to stick away and only had four
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: points in the first afternue at twenty in the four quarter.
• 1:04
  Speaker 5: He just woke up.
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: He played well. The Knicks continued to fight and that's
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: why they were able to get to win the night.
• 1:10
  Speaker 6: Well, for me, the second quarter, with forty five seconds
• 1:13
  Speaker 6: to go, the Knicks were down eighteen. They go on
• 1:17
  Speaker 6: a five to zero run without their best players on
• 1:21
  Speaker 6: the floor. To me, that was the difference. They kept
• 1:24
  Speaker 6: the game manageable. At thirteen, the game becomes manageable, and
• 1:27
  Speaker 6: then the ability to play and to trust that you
• 1:31
  Speaker 6: could play well without Jalen Brunton on the floor. The
• 1:34
  Speaker 6: Knicks were plus twelve. That means they were positive twelve
• 1:38
  Speaker 6: without Jalen Brunton on the floor tonight. They trusted their bench.
• 1:42
  Speaker 6: Can they win the series with him not on the floor?
• 1:44
  Speaker 6: Note but Kenny, but can they play well without him?
• 1:47
  Speaker 6: You have to trust it. They'd worked tonight and congratulations,
• 1:50
  Speaker 6: But also Kenny, I'm.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: Hoping this is a wake up call for Brunson, like, Yo, man,
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: you're gonna have to get off the ball. They've had
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: their two best firsts in this series, Game one and
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: to day, they've had their best.
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: Well, everybody's getting involved.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: He has to learn from that and get off the
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: ball a little bit more.
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: TK.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: We're gonna do a highlight or all right, let's do it.

• 2:33
  Speaker 1: first quarter.

• 2:47
  Speaker 7: gun and got the crowds of the game which enable
• 2:50
  Speaker 7: them to get that twenty point lead.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: At this point, forty four to thirty five, and here
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: they come.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Look at opone hopping.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: The lead now double digits and they start to pour
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: it on Ali oop to Obi. Look at these Anila

  Speaker 3: like crazy in the.

  Speaker 1: Second half, oh Siakam there fifteen point game, midway through
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: the third quarter.
• 3:45
  Speaker 6: Midway through the third quarter, you really felt that the
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: motor was going the right way. But then all of
• 3:49
  Speaker 6: a sudden, they Smith Nie Smith rather they gets hurt,
• 3:53
  Speaker 6: kind of took a little bit of momentum, but they
• 3:54
  Speaker 6: were still up enough points in the comfortable lead, cause.
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: They were up ten at the end of the third quarter.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Correctly where you'll see that in just a moment here
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: again all the highway I act with topping.
• 4:05
  Speaker 6: Fifty nine to seventy four. You said, this game you
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: got to close out. You got to close out at home.

  Speaker 3: Actually plays like a big guy, I don't even mind
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: Night's pass. I remind him shooting the three every now
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: and then, but when he plays, when he plays downhill,
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: it really because he got a dunk coming up that was.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Incredible, and they had Indiana turn turning the ball over
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: and every time the Knicks take advantage.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: Look at Cat there, it's eighty five eighty.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: One and Cat for three and it's eighty five eighty.
• 4:49

  Speaker 1: Listen, listen, I mean travel Man, largest comeback wins recorded
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: NBA playoff history and the Knicks coming back from twenty down.
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: To make this a.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: Two one series.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: You know, listen, man, everybody like Tom Chibbada. He's a
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: great coach and a nice guy. But man, he's got
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: the I don't understand his rotations, like Shaman was great,
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: to night.
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: That the right was good, the right, the run was
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: right was good. But he's gonna have to play these guys. Man,
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: we're all in game three.
• 7:08
  Speaker 6: But but you have to as much as you can
• 7:11
  Speaker 6: question it, he answered it. He actually played them, He
• 7:14
  Speaker 6: had confidence in them, He played them in moments, and
• 7:17
  Speaker 6: he decided to make a change and makes a lot.
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: But say in game one or two, guys would have
• 7:21
  Speaker 6: been like rushing down the street. But maybe he said,
• 7:23
  Speaker 6: I got to the conference finals.
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: Doing it one way. Yeah, but now it's not working.
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: But now you play.
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: You got Let's get one thing that these games don't
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: come hard and quick the next three days.
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: And that's that's what you got to look at the
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: big pencil.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: I think a night like this, all it does is
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: demonstrate to him and maybe your life goes on.
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: He's you know what, the light is on?
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: No, and you're gonna put this guy in? Mean, I
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: let you hear.
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: I think it's on. I think the light is on
• 7:46
  Speaker 6: because they play it. If your light wasn't on, I'm
• 7:49
  Speaker 6: not playing. But seven again, he decided to go in
• 7:53
  Speaker 6: and put guys in the game. And not only that,
• 7:56
  Speaker 6: he didn't just put him in shot. He kept them
• 7:58
  Speaker 6: in for extended periods when I, oh, he should take
• 8:00
  Speaker 6: him out at some time.
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: When you let me ask your check, kitty, your question,
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: what do you.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: Played all those guys, those other guys that get in
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: foul trouble. That's the one question I would ask myself.
• 8:10
  Speaker 7: I like, how the Knicks are the only team to
• 8:12
  Speaker 7: have a twenty points, be down twenty points three games
• 8:15
  Speaker 7: and come back shows to have the residience in the fight,
• 8:18
  Speaker 7: you know, to to continue to work. Not gonna question
• 8:20
  Speaker 7: Timson on what he does. We all know coaches are
• 8:23
  Speaker 7: gonna stay in their bag and do what they do.
• 8:25
  Speaker 7: Great win for the next night. But I think the
• 8:27
  Speaker 7: Pacers are saying they didn't beat us, we beat ourselves.
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: Agree with y'all night. But I'll answer the question.
• 8:34
  Speaker 6: I think he would have played them, but he wouldn't
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: have played him as long.
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: And he did play.
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: Longer changed to night because only thing changed. Only thing
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: changed nights. All those guys got involved.
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: But would changed the night with he had a mental
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: thought of a change when he inserted Mitchell Robinson him,
• 8:52
  Speaker 6: He's like, I have to do something, and that spearheaded
• 8:55
  Speaker 6: all of the other things. I think that wouldn't take spearheaded.
• 9:00
  Speaker 6: The guy's got in foul trouble because the Mitchell Robinson
• 9:03
  Speaker 6: thing didn't to me, didn't do anything. But bringing those
• 9:06
  Speaker 6: guys off the bench, that to me, what's the difference.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: And what I was saying too that I think because
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: he played them extended minutes because they were able to
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: be effective in more minutes going forward, foul trouble or not.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: If somebody needs a blow, it might look I'm.
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: Gonna I'm gonna play.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: I don't like putting Landry Shamman any I don't mind
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: putting bill On right in there. But again, but again,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: the Paces know they let one slip away up two oh,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: up twenty at home.
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: You gotta finish that game there.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: Twenty point comebacks on the road, by the way.
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: Wow, Well, and that was the thing I was saying about.
• 9:42
  Speaker 6: I know, Chuck Wa you had talked about the Knicks
• 9:45
  Speaker 6: if they get down. I really do believe that they
• 9:47
  Speaker 6: have the ability or dis furt ability as you as
• 9:50
  Speaker 6: Clock would say.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: You said, I do think they have that.
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: I think that because they have two guys.
• 9:58
  Speaker 6: Who when they score, they score for the three point line,
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: and Cat and Brunts it as well. And they also
• 10:04
  Speaker 6: score from the line, so they score when the clock
• 10:08
  Speaker 6: is stopped. So brunts and shoots four thousand son. But
• 10:11
  Speaker 6: you can say that, but I'm agree with Scheck. The
• 10:13
  Speaker 6: Pacers let this game get away. Yes, they only scored
• 10:16
  Speaker 6: forty two points. They had a thirteen point it's scored
• 10:19
  Speaker 6: forty two points. But also the bad thing about only
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: scoring forty two.
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: In the second half, they gave up thirty six in
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: just the fourth quarter.
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: Final score one oh six to one hundred.
