Whats up everyone, hope you all enjoyed that shit show of a game last night. I really thought the Knicks had a shot against the Pacers after a decent performance the other night, but the Pacers offense clearly overmatched the Knicks. Pacers shot 53.5 percent from the floor and 42.3 percent from beyond 3-point range. Tough to come out with a win when the opposing team shoots that well. On top of the shooting clinic the Pacers put on, the Knicks turned the ball over 18 times, 18! Can’t expect to win games with that many turnovers. Lastly, the Pacers are known around the league as a fast pace team, pushing the ball down the court, and scoring points on fast breaks. They stayed true their reputation by outscoring the Knicks on the open floor 31-5.
The Knicks dug themselves in a hole early going down 31-19, and could never dig themselves out of it. The Pacers lead was up to 38 at one point in the game, which at that point is almost unbearable to watch. Miserable game overall, and with an off day today, the Knicks travel back to New York City where they play the Memphis Grizzlies, who broke their 11-game losing streak last night against the Timberwolves.
