The Knicks got the first game of the pair of games that they needed to win to make this beyond just A series, but a series that they would be primed to win, and tonight is the other pair that they need.
Aaron Nesmith is playing, but you have to believe he won’t be at the top of his game. Injury luck going AGAINST the Pacers? Is that even allowed?
So the Knicks need to make a statement here. A 20-point comeback again would be okay, but I’d prefer a beatdown to make the Pacers nervous as hell heading back to the Garden on Friday.
