20-point reversal! The Eastern Conference Finals once again staged a comeback plot, Towns broke out in the last quarter, and the Knicks tied 1-2
On May 26, the playoffs Eastern Conference Finals G3 kicked off, and the Pacers returned to home against the Knicks. In the first two games of the two teams, the Knicks lost both home games, losing 3 points in one overtime and 5 points in the other game. The gap is not big, but the momentum of the two teams is everywhere, and the Knicks are obviously at the end of their strength. The US media gave a set of statistics. Since entering the playoffs, the Knicks have played a total of 308 minutes in the starting lineup, with a net loss of 50 points. If at least one starter is replaced, the Knicks have played for 152 minutes and have a net defeat to their opponents by 54 points! Because Thibodeau's excessive use of the starting lineup has led to a decline in player efficiency, and the players cannot be blamed. But what is incomprehensible is that Thibodeau knows that substitutes are better, but he does not give substitutes time.
Like Bridges playoff On-Off value is -28.6, Anunobi is -17.4, Towns is -8.5, Hart is -0.5, and only Brunson is present in the starting lineup is the positive value: +0.5! Judging from the predictions given by the US media, the probability of the Pacers winning the Eastern Conference championship is more than 70%. The Knicks have to put it bluntly that their ceiling is the second round of the Eastern Conference, but this season, the Knicks have just taken the Knicks to step forward. The Pacers are the soldiers of the people. The coach Carlisle performed 10-man rotation in the playoffs, and no one in the team played for more than 35 minutes. The core Halliburton eliminated the Bucks in the first round, and the second round was three-pointer to defeat the Cavaliers. G1 of the Eastern Conference Finals dragged the game into overtime again. He has grown into a super giant in the playoff level.
entered the game, the Knicks won Hart, Miro started, Brunson jumped + Miro put in the game, Bridges layup + Anunobi scored three-pointers, and the trend of blooming at multiple points. Halliburton caused damage, Turner took the cake, Miro was too good at rebounding, and the Pacers were obviously not used to it. Brunson slightly widened the score difference in singles, and Turner and Shepard suddenly made a three-pointer rain and took the lead in an instant! In the second half, Brunson made an inside shot and the Pacers substitute was fully fired under McConnell. The Pacers 30-26 Knicks in the first quarter. Entering the second quarter, McConnell led the team to stop the Knicks again. Anunobi dunks + Shamet made a strong three-pointer to stop the bleeding. Towns turned around and dunked. The referee delayed the whistle and gave 2+1. Halliburton stopped doing it and frantically signaled the coaching staff to challenge.
Carlisle did as he did, Pacers successfully challenged, and Towns made an offensive foul! This is also the first turning point of the game. Nesmith threw high, flattened the basket + all-received hit, Brunson made a series of irons, Halliburton intercepted and counterattacked, and the Pacers instantly opened up the 20-point difference! In the second half, Anunobi made an inside and outside shot, Bridges hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer. At the end of the half, the Knicks chased to 45-58. However, the biggest hidden danger of the Knicks is that Brunson committed four early and was not in good condition. Entering the second half, Anunobi continued to throw three points, Halliburton and Nesmith blossomed inside and outside. In a critical moment, Anunobi bombed the outside again, and Bridges also scored consecutively. McBride made consecutive singles + strong three-pointers in the middle, and the score difference returned to single digits!
Turner's dunk stopped the bleeding slightly. After the third quarter, the Pacers 80-70 Knicks. In the fourth quarter of the final battle, Towns received a three-pointer + singles Turner made a layup, then fed Bie Wright, and continued to call Turner himself. After Sika jumped to stop the bleeding, Towns continued to make kills + quickly took three-pointers. After that, Towns dunked and overtook with a substitute! Halliburton stopped the bleeding with a three-pointer, Towns continued to make a killing, and then pulled out a three-pointer, and scored 20 points in the fourth quarter! Sika responded with a jump shot. In the last 4 minutes, Halliburton jump shot + Turneriska caused damage, and tied at 98! Brunson made another layup, Turner made a three-pointer, and Hart grabbed the key rebound and made both free throws! The two teams adopted foul tactics, and the Knicks finally defeated the Pacers 106-100, completing a 20-point reversal, and the series score was 1-2.
Knicks data, Towns scored 24 points and 15 rebounds, Brunson scored 23 points, Bridges scored 15 points, Anunoby scored 16 points, Hart scored 8 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists, and McBride scored 9 points. The biggest change in this game was that Thibodeau dared to give time to substitute! Activating Wright and Shamet and putting Miro into the starting lineup really gave the original five tigers a lot of breathing time. Towns broke out with the bench in the fourth quarter, which is a good proof. However, the Knicks' situation is still not optimistic, and they are behind in the big score. It can be seen that Bridges and Anunobi have exhausted their physical fitness. If they continue to fight like this, the Knicks will still be in danger.
Pacers data, Halliburton scored 20 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists, Turner scored 19 points and 4 rebounds, Sika scored 17 points and 4 rebounds, Nemhard scored 9 points and 4 rebounds, Nesmith scored 8 points and 7 rebounds, and McConnell scored 12 points and 3 assists. He once opened 20 points and was reversed by the Knicks. The Pacers have reversed a lot this season, but it is their turn to be the background board. When the distance is getting closer 3-0, I am on the back of the burden of wanting to win and afraid of losing. Moreover, Nesmith stepped on Brunson and caused a sprain in his ankle. The team's offensive firepower is insufficient. Adjust as soon as possible and strive to get the match point in 2 days!
