I think the Knicks are exhausted, either way. The Pacers ran them into the ground.

Slight aside, the last player to play 48 minutes in consecutive playoff games, before Josh Hart, was Jimmy Butler when he played for Thibs.

I didn't see much of that game yesterday but that was ugly. Hopefully the Knicks can grind in front of the home crowd tomorrow and pick up a win. If they do, maybe they should consider taking the starters out early if it begins to go sideways in game 6.

Is OG confirmed out for the series?

I only see reports of him not being likely to play in game 5. Will have to see if he can come back for game 6, but nothing indicating that he will.

Indeed really exhausted, banged up, and undermanned. Pacers fast pace of play doesn't help the Knicks at all. Will see how Knicks respond tomorrow at the Garden. I'm thinking that even if they are able to get past the Pacers, they wouldn't have enough left in the tank to beat the Celtics in the next round.

You are counting out Cleveland already?

I counted them out before the series even started. I don't think Cavaliers are beating the Celtics. This might age very badly very quickly, but I stand by my prediction that the Celtics will get through to the eastern conference finals.

I am not counting out Cleveland yet but they really needed to win game 3 for me to believe it was a decent possibility. I would say its unlikely at this point and if they lose tonight at home it's pretty much over.
