Its hard to call it.

The Knicks are the better team but the injuries are gonna start to hurt us. The Pacers like to run alot and a 7 man rotation not gonna be able to run up and down with them all series.

I have the Knicks in 6, but I can see some factors that would lead to the Pacers winning the series.

Knicks 60-40 favorites to me though if im being objective.
 
Nembhard and nesmith are really going to make Brunson work

The pace that Indy plays with is not going to be in the Knicks’ favor

Pacers suck defensively but outside of Brunson they just have to cover OG, Hart, and Donte

how are the Knicks going to guard Siakam?

How Is Robinson and hartenstein going to do against Turner on the perimeter?

TJ McConnell is a luxury that the pacers have off the bench that the Knicks wish they had

You seen that offense with Brunson on and off the floor

Pacers don’t have to worry on that end

Pacers have more bodies and more depth

And that’s why I got them winning

All valid points.

But on the flipside, Knicks got the best player in the series.

Knicks got home court and MSG gon be wild.

Knicks gon eat on the offensive glass.

OG gon lock down either Siakim or Halliburton.

Pacers cant defend like the Sixers could.

Pacers let Bobby Portis take a game from them.

Knicks gonna be more physical the Pacers.

Knicks in 6.

Depth is really what im most worried about. If
the Knicks lose, itll be cause of their depth. Thibs gonna have to find someone thats gonna come off the bench and have impact.

Word. I didnt like our offense either.

Alot of that had to do with Embiid and how big the Sixers wings were. I really like Miles Turner, but he aint Embiid.

I can see Pacers winning in 6 cause Knicks might run out of gas.

Obi toppin gonna be doing eastbay dunks while the Knicks don’t even bother passing half court to save energy so they can score
 
Siakam vs og is gonna be tough. 🤩

Want to see siakam to win but I think the Knicks get it done in another hard fought 6.

I'm interested to see how Indiana deals with the physicality of the Knicks but I think the Pacers absolutely have a chance to win this series if they run and get out in transition

Brunson going to try to son Rick Carlisle....Toppin
going to try to son the Knicks

I'm taking the Knicks but I think this going to be a very competitive series and could go either way

Like before that Sixers series I definitely would’ve said Knicks in 5

Idk man

All it takes is for a rolled ankle and a bad shooting night to lose 2 games to the pacers before even factoring the pacers playing well

TJ McConnell could organize the entire Knick offense if he was there
 
Deuce McBride gonna put the clamps on TJ McConnell. I aint even worried.

Myles Turner soft just like Karl Towns

IHart, Mitch, OG, Precious gonna be feasting.
Goonies!
