talking about the ML not the spread

realistically speaking before the series started I didn't see the Knicks winning a game in Indiana and indeed they were never really in either game. Also worth mentioning how good Indiana was at home during the regular season. Now with this in mind Knicks will be playing with alot of desperation at home and they will not want to get eliminated in front of their own fans. As good as the Pacers are they play are a home team and they did get blown out here in NY in game 2. However Pacers were in that game until the 2nd half until the Knicks went on a run. This feels more like a game the Pacers can spare to lose with game 6 being at home and it seems very difficult to see the Knicks actually losing here.

Yes they are. Carmelo won't let them go out like that and with that home crowd they will win by double digits.

[Johnnythunder]

I think the Knicks show up for this one and lose in Indy,

more important is which Pacers team shows up

Why not? When has he ever in his NBA career put a team over the top? Especially in the playoffs? He has let many a team "go out like that" over and over and over. He might score 35 points on 30 shots.......... guess that makes him a star.

knicks season ends tomorrow this team is done ....Glaring weakness no guards Kidd is a hazard on the court and the little fat guy isnt good. Knigs will have to go get a top notch guard some how if they want to be a playoff threat right now they are just a sparring partner Knigs are 59 % public play which wont end well for them

[zsr]

They probably win tomorrow then lose in 6

[t-wizzle]

No take the spread.

[Gus Fring]

I'd say knicks.

Of course u would

[t-wizzle]

Of course u would

Oh I get it. You're mad I disagreed with your assessment of Steph Curry so now you are following me around the forum. Get a hobby.

[Vinnie Paz]

Lol @ carmelo won't let them go down like that...oh please. That nigguh ain't no damn heart. Knicks been outplayed every game but 1, they just can't match up. This thing was over once they pissed away game 1

They cant win here without guards

[The Kraken]

There's only one team in the league that can turn it on when they need to. And it ain't the Knicks. The Knicks are in the exact same position as the Thunder. One tired superstar and a string of role players, playing against a better team with a lockdown defense and a dominant big down low and one old ass worthless PG. Knicks are done.

If the Knicks had played anybody other than the C's in the first round, they'd already be watching from home.

Pacers

Thursday

[Jikos]

if they win tonight, they're not going out in 6

[Brebos]

If JR plays sooooooo right, maybe xD

[konck]

lol who the fuk would make that funny

[NLDB]

This is a perfect set up , NY will play Miami in Conference Final . You all wait and see

[rocky16]

I can't believe people still bet on the Knicks. smh.

[goodlucky30]

They are a big play to go against

[GoBlue77]

if they win tonight, they're not going out in 6

So clueless...

[Dollars2Donuts]

I booked Indiana at +5 and cannot believe all the 'sharps' out there on the Knicks getting this great line for me.

No offense, but this game should be at -1.5 or -2 for the Knicks.....and yet the Knick fans are still all over it. If I was on the Knicks there is NO WAY either play makes any sense in a monetary fashion...no value on the ML and sooo hard to win by 6 against a team that outrebounds you by 25%.

GL though, either way....

D2D

[seancon121]

No way pacers can sustain their defense on the road for 3 in a row. Knicks winning this one by at least 10pts. Will prob be a pretty ugly game though

[ashulga]

I see this ending just like okc. Everyone thought they would win maybe not cover but win ML at least. Fact is they will get dominated inside and on boards today, thus they will have to shoot much better fg percentage than Indiana to win. But personally I like over bc Knicks r going small to push the pace and have more shooters in so that will help the offense as well as giving copeland more minutes which is good for offense and terrible for defense. However pacers will dominate inside and boards with a lot of easy baskets and offensive rebounds. I think over is the safest play
As a matter of fact I even predict that Jason Kidd will score over 5 Pts and if that happens over is guaranteed because I don't think that fukker scored this entre post season lol

[easyliving]

spread is now 4.5 across the board. not sure what to make of it.

Easy....most late money is coming in on Indiana....most of the Knicks fans booked it early and held that line at -5....I certainly never say anything is for sure, but this should be, at the very least, a close game. Those saying Knicks 10+ point victory.....well that IMO is a 10 to 1 shot at best.

so do I hammer the knicks ML here or not? I don't think the Pacers offense scores enough tonight to be actually competitive.

Hammer away, but I believe the better side is Indiana plus the points....I got Indy at +5 and am very satisfied....

GL whichever way you go.

[SexyMit]

Kind of like how KD cant let Memphis beat them in OKC. Cant go out like that right? Knicks are done.

[seancon121]

Indiana is laying an egg tonight. nuff said

I love people with these BOLD predictions....how's about giving us some analysis? Or posting your ticket??

Nobody will ever take anything you say as anything serious until you get a lot better than 'bleah, bleah, bleah, bleah' which is what your post really read to the rest of us.

[seancon121]

Haha, alright alright i feel ya D. I'm just taking the angle that Indiana is due for a bad performance especially from big man roy hibbert and point gaurd g hill. I don't think IND can sustain their level of play and I think it will be a similar game to Game 2 at MSG when Indy dropped out, except NY will be playing with a LOT for desperation and emotion. I put 2 units on the NY spread -4.5 and 2 units on the over(179).

[pattymayo]

Indy has no chance tonight

They won't even play hard. If they manage to keep the game competitive in the 1h the Knicks will go on a huge run in the 2h like game 2

Indiana does not need to win tonight and they know it. They are a different team on the road. They will not be able to keep up with the Knicks scoring for 4 quarters and they don't have to

Lose tonight go home and win in 6. This is why Indiana played so hard in game 1 to win, because now they can coast here and close it out at home
