Ref got overruled by crew chief. Seen that a million times. Right call was made.

Idiot SVG made a very false analogy with the bad call/kick ball from game one. The obvious difference being in game one it looked like a kicked ball when everyone saw it the first time (TV and refs). Today was obviously a bad call and everyone saw it...duh.

Lol yes i love how everyone acts how it was obvious it hit his hand in real time. Literally was impossible to see that without slowing down the frame.

Carlisle, maybe don't shoot 59% at the stripe and use TJ in crunch time. We know how our pests win games late. Dumb on you. And thanks for going the loser way and setting the tone for your team, like Philly did. Now they will be following the same.

If JB & OG don't miss time, this game was probably our first playoff blowout this year.

OG is toast. That thing swells up and he done. Sorry, not a hack, if anyone had a hammy strain its bad.

Indy was lost in the last few minutes. Defense sucked, and Miles Turner taking wild three with 2.5 min left was a panic.
Hate to say it guys, but when I said before the game "knicks wearing out" was not made up or hate. It was an observation.

Thibs is over playing, but its winning. He don't, we lose.
But we go down fighting.

Chuck hates lots of things. Its part of his act. He does it "tongue in cheek". Not mean spirited. Thing is, knicks win proves whom ever says otherwise wrong. Don't matter what he thinks.
As for me, Im just appreciating what this team is doing and has done this season but the party ends sooner than later with each departing player.
At some point the sky will fall. Hope not for a while.

Rick is posturing going home 0-2 and its his job to do so. Josh is going after Hali, and Hali Still had a hell of a game. He did not hurt him or take him out. Rick is protecting his player. No big deal.
His team lost cuz it takes stupid shots and don't box out. Knicks are winning on effort and grit.

I think the hate is real, as there was no need to poke at the Rangers next.

Regardless, success this year if healthy was ECF. When injuries happened, success to me was 2nd round. So, no matter what this has been a successful season. But, I want great success, put Indy away and they'll have done amazing. All gravy and flowers from here. So damn proud of this team. Go Knicks.

It was funny once the questions started coming in he started getting uncomfortable. Specifically when confronted about the double dribble overturn being the correct call and benching McConnell again in the 4th when he’s clearly been the biggest impact player for them in games 1 and 2.

Chuck is from Alabama and hates the Yankee NYers and is first to show his true colors about that. The hate is most definitely real and it’s fine. Chuck is a hater of a lot of things and New York is one of them.

TLDR (his initial take without virtue of any imaging) he thinks Brunson may have a nagging injury for a while, but shouldn’t miss games. OG could miss a few games, but should be back.

Let’s recall Haliburton’s unplanned split/hamstring injury from earlier this season. He didn’t miss too much time, but hasn’t been the same since.

OG has been extremely aggressive on offense this series. In game 2, he basically worked twice as hard as normal and his leg failed him.

Hoping this doctor is right and he can still play his wicked defense in this series and beyond.

I couldn't watch the 2nd half and don't know if I can, even though they won, just knowing that OG might be done or out for a period of time is too heartbreaking. What a year this group has put together, and they keep going. what a shame for these injuries because this group is special.

If OG is only out a "few" games that's a massive win for us. History tells us that he doesn't come back that quickly drom injury, but I think it makes sense to rest him in Indiana and see what happens by the time we get back to NY. Hopefully we can win one there. You cant look ahead, but one has to think we can go 2-3 vs Indy without OG and you save him for Boston.

Brunson is still a mystery injury, but his limp seemed to wear off the more he played and he played the whole 2nd half and scored 25, so have to just hope ice kept it at bay after the game and he can replicate his performance.

Pump the brakes on OG being out. Positive vibes only

Did anyone catch Reggie pre game saying Jalen flopped on the Turner screen. Sheesh. His team and he doesn’t even get the facts right on a pre-scripted gripe

Enough with the negativity

Brunson coming back to the game on the anniversary of Willis Reed is some legendary **** though.

I still love Ewing, but this guy is fast becoming my favorite of my lifetime. Knicks fans have been waiting for a guy like this

1) OG was awesome. Hope the hammy is ok.
2) iHart with another iconic block to seal the deal.
3) Josh Hart is my kind of *******. He made Siakam his bitch.
4) Precious needs more playoff reps. I don’t get the criticisms. Maybe too many fouls but man he plays with effort. Respect.
5) Deuce needs some more minutes. He isn’t getting comfortable quickly and it’s showing up in his offensive decisions. It’s hard to take the Nova guys off the court but I think Deuce can deliver with a little more time.
6) Donte is a game changer when he gets hot.
7) Brunson is getting pushed and pulled all night without major complaint. Clutch leader in the playoffs. 4th quarter points leader. Boss.

Yes he stuttered and said Jalen and of course said nothing about a contrary view. Like the screen was illegal and the quick whistle totally suggested the refs were looking for this and IMO turner was probably warned about moving screens and/or too wide a stance

All excellent takes

There was a play very late in the game like 1 or 2 min left where Brunson was getting pulled so much his jersey was stretched still in Indys hands by about a foot. No whistle

And Carlisle whines about Hart on Hali and whether he’s pushing a sore back but Indy went at Brunson hard the minute he was back in the game. And SVG and Reggie were advocating to go at Brunson hard on D

Can we talk about how good Donte has been this series - especially 2nd half of games. Philly I think schemed to take him away from his spots. As a result Josh had to hit shots (which he did). Indy doesnt seem to play with as much focus defensively and Josh has been able to draw attention with his drives. Donte has found spots and the right elbow and in the corner where he is pretty fire. Great efforts in these 2 games and usually his shooting isnt quite as good at home.
