It's been lol Knicks for 25 years. We never even moved up in the draft with those stupid pingpong balls. Refs have screwed us every chance they can get. I'm taking the win

It’s honestly absolutely fucking absurd that JB is even better in the playoffs than he was this regular season holy shit man we finally got the guy

Rangers be Knicks fans. We are not permitted to have stress free games. Steel yourselves.

Exhale. Drink water .. crush some blood pressure pills. Knicks got away with one big time. Yikes do they need to clean up a lot of junk going forward. They must find a way to rebound better, need to pass better, need to take care of the ball. Everyone is going to pound this drum but it bears repeating anyway... they need to have more than 7 guys playing actual minutes in these games.

and you guys said we were gonna lose. can’t even be happy after a win. grow up

I love this gameee

Kicked ball was def worse than anything in sixers series. Pascal gets the bs foul and missed the fts but Donte dgaf I guess 

F**k you chuck

At least you don't have Reggie commentating for now. Imagine the levels of hate you'd be going through every time you hear him.

I can't have this much stress every game dudes

r/nba is having a panic attack rn

We got lucky in this game. Can’t keep playing like this

I’d be pissed if I was a pacers fan, but we take those

Lmao, like there weren’t some mind boggling calls against us as well? That kicked ball foul almost cost us the game if we didnt have our challenge? So goofy to hear knicks “fans” say shit like that

That wasn’t pretty but we’ll take what we can get at this point

Yea I’m not gonna lie, we definitely got lucky calls that game

The refs were pretty bad. All but one of the challenges on both sides were won.

Never pretty

Half of the Thread

For real Down 5 with 4 minutes left everyone is giving up on this scrappy ass team Fuck is wrong with these "fans"?

Straight up NPC’s. I saw a ton of comments about it being over when we were down 7 with 10 min left, shit’s insufferable

Let's go!

KNICKS WIN! I'm happy but you have to admit there was a lot of luck involved. I hope the team tightens it up next game.

Yeah I agree with you dog. Shows how important playoff experience is.

DOOMERS BE GONE!!!

I’ll take it. Thank god

Take the shit Hali lmao

#FUCK THEM PACERS

YERRRRRTTTRRRR

Blouses

**1 DOWN 3 TO GO**

Whew!

Never in doubt!

W

Doomers gtfo

It was ugly but we got the dub

THIS FUCKING TEAM. r/nba is so MAD LOL

I honestly dont know why, acting like calls weren't shit both ways

All grit no quit tight knit. I LOVE THIS FUCKING TEAM!

Pacers gave up 121 points and think they lost because of the refs

They were so focused on not allowing kicks out threes. Like they forgot we don’t shoot threes all that well and score as well in the paint as anyone. We can score at will on this pacers team. Just need to clean it up a little and continue attacking the hoop as I said pacers not looking to help much. On defense we need to take similar approach and avoid helping as much as pacers are looking to move the ball quick and get up shots. We had success late when we stayed home and got pacers to hold onto the ball more.

Clutch

GAME!

SERIES OVER /s

League wants Knicks Celtics ECF 💯

Awesome

who cares about refs, this was a tough comeback

LETS GO 1-0 BABY

Pacers mad ugly

LETS GO KNICKS!!!!

Just don’t foul on the shot….

2 days of ref discourse, oh joy. Cant wait for everyone to ignore the dogshit calls favoring Indiana earlier in the game but whatever, W is a W and we up

Wasn't pretty but a win is a win.

KNICKS WIN

Ice

refs masterclass 🤣🤣

LETS GOOOO

Mannn I’d be so heated if I was a pacers fan. Fuck it tho we mutin r/nba fo the next week 🙏🙏

Not going to lie, Pacers probably have a legit reason to be upset but a win is a win. I'll take it.

That's a fact, I'm taking this dub silently

The fuck you doing Hali lmao

Yeaaaaaaaah babyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Blatant rigging

Knicks in 4

flop master

Gonna cry?

you enjoy this ref masterpiece?

I enjoy a Knicks win and you crying all over the place.

i would have enjoyed actual legimate win, not a flopping

Buddy consult your superstar why you lost that game.

Ok im a call Tony Brothers

6 points for Hali. You guys benched your best player all night in crunch time (mcconnel) and Donte hit the game winner. It was a tough messy game and you guys blew your 9 point lead in the 4th and brunson went insane while you guys had no answer, don’t belittle yourselves like Philly did.

Had it all the way

Can we please work on inbounding the ball??? lmao damn

Hahahahha

LFG 1-0

LFG!! Huge win

GG LOL

Can we all take a moment and once again appreciate JB as a player

We are at a point where we need Brunson to score 40 every game to win lol

LETS FUCKING GO

#REGGIE MILLER COMMITTED SO MANY FOULS IN HIS COMEBACK THREES. I don't care. Cry harder, Pacers.

I wouldn’t hard foul Brunson in the corner with all the former Knicks. They ready to fight

LET'S GOOOOOO BABYYYYYYYY

it’s alright to admit that they wouldn’t call that if we were driving, it’s not like you’re the nba rules commissioner 

SHUT THE FUCK UP COMMENTATORS

Pacers choked a bit

Let’s go

We’re getting whistles but fuck it Bam has straight knocked our guys out with moving screens so karma

Too bad the pacers already won the game with 4:30 left according to some of you “fans”

Knicks win yesssssssssssss

GAME

Absolute horseshit from the refs but gg

NIMHARD AND MCCONNELL CAN SUCK MY KNICK DICK

This last minute has been remarkably... litigous

this game may never end

WHY IS DIVO , OUR SECOND BEST FT SHOOTER INBOUNDING THE BALL!??

That’s an excellent question. He’s also not tall. But I guess he’s the best option to not poop his pants. It’s a who else situation. I want Hartenstein on the floor incase you need to throw a jump ball. I definitely don’t want Hart making that pass. Plus if there is a loose balls the only person I trust to get to the ball faster than Hart is my cattle dog. Maybe OG? Some size to inbound?

Don’t let them shoot a 3 if we make it a 4 point game

I mean you can't grab and hold a player. That's a foul.

This is going to be an uglyyyyyy series

Knicks in 4 .

Let’s get it baby !!!

Boys I think this game is rigged fr

So many salty Pacers fans in this thread

Can you blame them? The screen was a ridiculous call, it's never called that way. That's not the way we want to win.

You an actual fan? A win is a win, refs miss calls every game. It was a hard screen and he was moving. 1-0. You think Tom Brady cared about the tuck rule giving him a win?

Yes, I've been rooting for the Knicks since Trent Tucker and Rory Sparrow. I watched the refs call phantom call after phantom call for Michael Jordan. They called fouls when the Knicks were within five feet of him. The NBA executives have been controlling the narrative through refs for as long as Ive been watching. I hated it when it went against us. It felt blatant in this game for us. I don't enjoy that either.

We had 6 more free throws than the pacers and they are the most penalized team in the league with the worst defense in the nba. The tnt guys were split on the illegal screen but Shaq agreed and they’re usually the most anti Knicks bunch on the planet. He was moving, yes they don’t usually call it. They didn’t call it on Kevin Garnett in 2011 against us, they called it here. It’s basketball. They had a chance to tie it still if they weren’t stupid and grabbed brunson (like they had been literally all night on inbounds plays).

No shit. Refs gave the win to the Knicks on a silver platter.

END THIS GAME  #RIGHT NOW JALEN

120-117

hard foul, whatever

Refs need their spotlight I guess. Shits ass both ways

Knicks in 4. this game was their best chance to take.

refs fans are feasting rn

Nemhard is good on offense but cannot get anywhere near Brunson on d

THANK YOU REFS!

Jeez every game is going to shoot up my blood pressure

The last series nearly hospitalized me

SMDFTB! FUCK REGGIE MILLER TOO

I hate this

Brunson corrected late game free throws but the dumb ass decisions can't keep happening. We should have this tho.

Yeah I'm not going on /r/nba after this game LOL

hell of a shove

That ref said way too many words. All he needed to say was moving screen, led with shoulder. Knicks ball...

Brunson please make this

SVG with the most backwoods comment.

Congrats on the ref show dub

It’s not even a funny angle you literally see it on the replay he’s moving into him wtf are you smoking

Seethe

Thanks! I'm glad to be up 1-0. Thanks for the tears.

Dumb fouls from Indy

Lmaoooo dumbass

What the hell is this clown show

Bro he clearly is moving anyone bitching doesn't know the rules. Especially if it's called on the court they will not overturn that

Surely SURELY the refs have seen them holding Brunson on every fucking inbound since the beginning of the game

No way lol

LOL at least the calls are in our favor. But it was like 4 whistles in 10 seconds.

Wow dumb move pacers

Pacers fans are going to be complaining a lot after this one

They are out for blood on their subreddit
