It's so exciting! That's the NBA playoffs we want to see!

After a fantastic, epic match, the Eastern Conference finally had to return to the normal track of analysis.

After all, you can't ask Nesmith to "open the plug-in" and invite Maddie in the God Invitation event, right?

What happens on a regular basis cannot be called a miracle.

For the Knicks, it hurts to lose such a game that should have been in hand.

This reminds them that:Beat your opponent to death, not knock him down.

Since the 1996-97 season, teams trailing by more than seven points in the final 50 seconds of the playoffs have a record of 4 wins and 1702 losses.

Horrifyingly, the Pacers have won three of those games, and all of them have been achieved this season.

While feeling that they are evil, everyone should not forget to ask: "How did the Knicks G1 lead by 17 points come about?" ”

The answer is physical superiority in the opposite direction.

Anunoby, Bridges, and Hart have taken care of the defending champion Celtics, so Thibodeau is looking forward to using these strikers to "clean up" Siakam. (Note, it's the first game, Sika is very awkward)

The Pacers have a lot of guards, are physically weak, and don't have enough people on the wings, and the exposure is obvious.

When it comes to physical ability, there's no doubt that New York has the upper hand.

But... Walkers are accurate, and there are many people who can play ball!

Who can afford to hit eight three-pointers in the final three and a half minutes of the final quarter and eight and a half minutes of overtime?

Both teams can meet the requirements of playing a five-outside lineup, and the offense will be more fluid, so everyone will be more comfortable watching Bixi.

But as I wrote after the first game, the Knicks can't play basketball with the Pacers at this pace, 10 people rotate, 10 people can shoot threes, you fight high to win?

Playoffs, Rhythm Battle.

It has to be dragged into the mud to wrestle, and more use of body killing, which is the New York style, and there is a chance.

The second game of the East Finals.

The Knicks fell in the final moments.

When it comes to key moments (the last 5 minutes, within 5 points), the Pacers haven't lost a playoff game yet.

Prior to today's game, the Pacers were 6-0 in key moments in this year's playoffs, ranking first in the league.

The Timberwolves are second with 4 wins, the Warriors are third with 3 wins, the Knicks are fourth with 6 wins and 3 losses, and the Thunder are 5th with 4 wins and 2 losses.

Another statistic, playoffs so far,As long as the game scores more than 104 points, the Pacers win all.And they are averaging 119.5 points per game and shooting 40.6% from three-point range.

Today, the Knicks dropped 114 points.

So, the law continues.

What's awesome about the Pacers is that they seem like everyone is the focus.

The last game was Nesmith and Harry, and today it was Sika's turn again, and he directly became the God of War card.

Siakam was on fire in the first quarter, scoring 16 points in the first quarter and playing 32 minutes, shooting 15-of-23, 3-of-5 three-pointers, 6-of-8 free throws, and a career-high 39 points plus 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal, with a plus/minus of +16.

When writing about walkers, I often use a phrase: You don't know which of their clouds will rain.

So from the opponent's point of view, the point cannot be found.

In the next game, who will break out? Turner? Mathurin? Nembhard?

I really don't know.

All I know is that the Pacers came back to Indiana with a 2-0 scoreline.

All I know is that the East Fight is exciting.

Two games in a row until our hearts beat faster, there was no referee whistle, no discussion of free throws, whoever was awesome would shoot the ball in, which is what playoff basketball should look like.

All I know is that if you really like basketball, then the Pacers' philosophy of play deserves everyone's respect.

Four of their starting five were traded, with the remaining one being Myles Turner, who joked in his own article: "I've been on the shelf for six years."

After watching this year's playoffs, I was really attracted by the Pacers' game temperament and content. If you love basketball and not just the stars, you'll love the Pacers.

In this team that is not favored, I see teamwork, selflessness, purity, and commitment.

In today's post-match interview, Siakam repeated:

"We don't care who scores more points, we just win."

This is definitely not a pretense after getting a high score, Pacers basketball, that's it.
