"We should have had 156 free throws in those 2 games" - Rick Carlisle
It wasn't all calls for them. Some are calls against them. 2 wrongly called kickballs that stopped the Pacers from running. A foul on Turner from literally doing nothing to Brunson. A foul on Nesmith for Donte stopping and running into his space (should be an offensive foul now btw). A foul on Nembhard in game 1 for Brunson stepping into his air space and jumping into him which isn't supposed to be a foul anymore. None of these would be free throws but are wrongly called.
@@tonyschimmoellerstop crying
@@ChrisTookFlight It's crying to use logic?
Many missed calls… on both sides. Doesn’t change the fact that the Pacers got out played in the 4th quarter of both games. But I completely expect the refs to call a lop-sided game tonight and the Pacers to win as a result. Rick’s whining in his presser will be a success. The small market argument is laughable though. Good luck guys! Should be fun tonight.
Thank you for the OG callout… he went stupid by himself 2nd quarter
The issue is that the pacers aren’t a really good team
Not sure what “really good” means here. They’re a deep and talented second round playoff team. They’re not a title contender. If you’re saying only the Celtics, Thunder, Wolves, and maybe Nuggets are really good then yes, I agree. But the Pacers are plenty good enough to be here. If you’re here to shit on the Knicks cause they won’t win the title this year…congratulations.
@@33moneyball not really good means - no one needs them in the second round and they dont deserve it to be there^^
@@denigsterwhat do you mean no one "needs" them?
You're the type that wants it to be WWE, don't ya? That's fcking weird.
Right....took em 6 games to beat a battered and limping Bucks team
@@erikoettinger9270 does that mean you're gonna cry in Brunson goes down with an injury and it's the Pacers that get fed to Boston instead?
We've already established that one guy wants this series served up WWE style.
I like to watch the Knicks play and sit there and thing about that big 'ol city. Wow, what a huge market broooo that's the best part of the game of basketball. The market. Fuck the score, let me peep those TV ratings and let's have Brunson win tonight and have 55 points. It's like watching 2K but at least in 2K the algorithm is playing out instead of us nudging it with whack officiating. That market though....🤤
“They’ll probably get a different whistle at home” Didn’t you get fired up at Bill for making the exact same point?
Literally 48 hours ago Ryen was going off on BS Pod about rigging conspiracies, ay carumba.
There's a difference between home game crowd pressure on refs and a conspiracy to favor one team. Though players and refs trying to tilt player props isn't out of the question.
@@charlatantric Agreed, but sounds like Ryen agreed with Bill more than he realized.
our people are tryna make progress here😭😭
I know that made me laugh out loud the way he said it like out the side of his mouth 🤣🤣🤣🤣
They r the majority
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Youralwayswhining4367not in the NBA😂
Pacers lost game 2, unquestionably. Couldn’t defend, couldn’t rebound, couldn’t make free throws; don’t deserve to win the game. My frustration with the officiating can be summed up by the kickball call in game 1 and the double dribble call in game 1. First one can’t be reviewed, refs got it wrong, and it goes against the Pacers. Second one can’t be reviewed but they reverse the decision because it’s the right call and it goes against the Pacers. 2 huge possessions where the refs directly impact momentum away from the Pacers.
You realize there are about 100+ possessions in an NBA game that affect both teams. A point in the first 2 minutes of the game is worth the same as a point in the last two minutes of the game.
Being at the game for game 2. That moment was amazing! The closest thing we’ll get to Willis Reed in the is era
As a longtime Pacers fan I’m fine with most of the missed calls as that’s how sports go. The non kicked ball and the Turner moving screen are the only missed calls that actually bug me given the time of the game they were called and how pivotal they were to the outcome.
So my thing with the 78 calls that were supposedly missed is if that Turner screen is a foul after review, then there probably were 50+ of those screens at least set throughout the 2 games. I don’t think it’s that unbelievable given the precedent the refs set in Game 1.
If you actually watch the Isaiah hartenshtein play. The double dribble clearly wasn't a double dribble. I agree, the refs shouldn't have called the moving screen in game 1 because it wasn't super clear. But in this instance the refs had it right. In no camera angle did hartenshtein double dribble
They said inadvertent whistle but the ref literally did the motion. I think it goes to show how bad they were last night.
The problem for me is why was the same thing not done for the incorrect kicked ball call? Both calls were awful and wrong against each team, and both calls resulted in the Knicks having the ball.
Yes the kick ball was wrong call and the refs messed up. So because of that they should not correct the behavior and continue to make a wrong call??? That's crazy. They messed up, they fixed it in game 2. And now people are upset they fixed it. Game 2 was not lost because of refs. That was a pretty evenly called game, both teams played aggressive. The pacers Def was terrible along with missed free throws, bad coaching
@@caleblofstrom4322 to be clear I don’t think the refs were that bad in Game 2 and they were not the reason the Pacers lost. But we as fans should always want consistency in the playoffs. The fact that there were two crucial bad calls in crunch time of both games against each team and both situations resulted in the same team getting the ball is a problem. Whether intentional or not, the results clearly favored and gave an advantage to only one team.
@@mpeters99 bc other refs on the floor had a better angle/look. no one had a good look at the kicked ball. it's just how it happened. It's not a Knicks conspiracy. Plenty of calls didn't go our way Game 3. It's just how it goes and officiating a tense, physical playoff game will be tricky.
If you Knicks fans think these little injuries are going to stop ... It's what happens on Thibb teams. Too many mins. Cross your fingers and hold your breath because the Pacers are never going to stop running
TJ has been crushing it offensively and defensively and Nemhard got abused. If Brunson is half the Knicks offense and you are getting wrecked bending over backwards with these trapping schemes, why not keep TJ in.
TJ has no range from deep. He’s elite at going to basket and finding a pass if the double comes. But unless it’s spot up feet set wide open.. he’s a brick layer. Just sayin we’re making him look good by guarding him tight or when the hand off comes he’s diving to basket full steam for a layup. The Pacers run that offense well but who shoots when they need a big bucket?
the Pacers don't play any defense. Even with OG out for game 3. Its still a winnable game for the Knicks.
"Honestly TJ, u know...the Sam Hausers, Sam Merells. Our people are trying to make progress here"
That made me laugh and choke on the blunt smoke out of nowhere.😂 We just gotta claim the Euros too bro. IDK what happened to the American white players but you can claim Luka and Jokic and Sabonis. Maybe that Flagg kid will be something though, who knows.
Only 1 team in these playoffs 4/8 games the refs have been main story
Let pacers play physical game as they usually do but once they start playing they whistling everything on pacers - let both teams play very physical and pacers easily win series
Great analysis Ryan as always.
Carlisle is just butt-hurt that he's getting outcoached by Thibs and his team is getting outplayed.
Indiana don't want it, looks like boys against men in crunch time.
Knicks in 4
The Knicks are clearly the better team, but watching Brunson flop off ball and foul bait when driving is disgusting viewing. I went to Nova and loved these guys but they are really turning into the villains with all their crying and mean mugging. I can absolutely see why Knicks fans love them, but they are unwatchable as a non-Knicks guy
How are they clearly the better team? The games have come down to the final minute twice. The expectation is the home team wins every game.
@@tonyschimmoeller As a Sixers fan we lost the series by a total of 1 point, but I can admit that they out played us when it mattered most and they very literally stole a game from us. I would say that the only way this series goes beyond 5 games is if OG is hurt. I can’t believe I’m even defending the Knicks but your not facing reality.
@@jordancieslak6491 I'm not saying the Pacers would win or anything. I'm saying how can they be clearly the better team when they've barely scraped by twice now?
You want your team to win the game without a gift of 6-10 points ........... NBA wants a long series with good revenues !! Now OG injury will allow that but New York might not w
The shai ref baiting this knicks pacers series the 76ers games the wolves vs nuggets game 2 have all had bad reffing
The refs have to play defense for the pacers, 130 points without Brunson and OG for four quarters.
they dont need to stop him they need to out score him. I would juice up the pace and make him take 40 shots a game. just dont let divincenzo or Hart go off.
Up the pace? They’re already gone my full tilt and the Knicks are beating them at their own game.
Pacers have multiple games scoring over 150 this year. This is low end of their pace. I don't hate the strategy of trying to up the pace but realistically they are in and could have won both games. They just need minor adjustments
You mean a thibs team is struggling with critical injuries during the playoffs!? Get outta here!!
Why the fuck is McConnell not in the game? Rick should lose his job. What agenda does he have?
The problem is injuries. Knicks are done
Trae young with better hair
Nope. They can cry to the refs all they want but they were conceding wide open threes all game because of poor help defense
Haliburton is massively overrated. Sorry not sorry.
Knicks are one of the worst and luckiest 2 seeds I’ve seen no embiid really and refs on there side
you seems to be very young - no embiid ?? whos embiid ? was this embiid guy you re talking abozt ever in the playoffs or is he a regular season meme ??????
Embiid just sucks in the playoffs dude. That ain’t the Knicks problem. That’s the Sixers’ problem.
Embiid averaged 33 points, 10.8 rebounds and 5.7 assists round 1 against the knicks. How is that "no Embiid really"? Also that knicks have been battered by injuries the whole season and now more injuries in the playoffs but still plays harder than their opponents. Stop your crying lol
I don’t want to hear about Alec Burks
He for real is not a viable option in this series.
He was garbage in every minute he played in a Knicks jersey this year. Bogey was the reason for the trade. Burks was just a money matcher contract.
Jaylen Brown >>>> Jalen Brunson
shout out to carlisle for keeping TJ and Ijack on the bench when it matters
The problem is definitely worse in the NBA because there's strange correlations between how big the market is and how many calls teams get the lakers in differential are number 1 with 250 and the knicks are number 2. I'm sure you'll just say it's a coincidence right. The NBA isn't rigged it's biased however towards big names and big games in big markets. That's not even mentioning Anthony Davis going to the Pelicans so the NBA could help sell the team for more money or Patrick Ewing going to the Knicks. I'm sure it's just a coincidence though right you're too cowardly to call out it being biased towards certain teams in certain situations.
Think about the monetary difference in between how much the NBA gets in a 4 game sweep or a 7 game series or even the difference between say the Knicks or the Lakers going to the playoffs versus a team like the Pelicans. You're all too cowardly to call it how it is because you need to cozy up to the NBA and NBA adjacent companies who won't hire you or pay you if you call them out like so blatantly.
Of course the Pacers didn't Miss 150 or however many calls but it is indicative of the trend pretty standard in the league by now big teams and big markets mean big money so they get biased treatment..
There's no backroom shady alley deals it's just the NBA executives keep this regime of refs in power because they don't need to have that conversation the refs know to bias the right games
As a Knicks fan the game one turner screen was right call but should never be made at that point. The game 2 complaints are ridiculous, that was a hard fought aggressive game by both teams. Called pretty fairly. The pacers lost because they didn't play defense, missed free throws, and bad substitutions.
Officiating has been straight garbage.
Brunson Brunson Brunson everywhere on all podcasts analytics it is so tiring to get all same information about series…
I thought they got rid of the Trae Young/ James Harden type fouls? Why does Brunson get them?
Who's here after the last game lol
Pacers dont have anyone who can guard Brunson as well as Batum did. They need another wing with length. But attrition is becoming a factor and if he reaggravates his right foot that will slow him as much as defense will.
Complaining about not getting calls on the road is cringe
Thats just admitting the games are rigged lol
The whistle wasn’t bad though. Literally you can only complain about the kickball violation. Both team are getting bullshit calls and both teams are not getting calls they should be getting. Loser mentality to make it about the refs
@SteveNY823 There is always non calls. It's more that the Pacers are getting bad calls and not getting the same calls that the Knicks are getting. Turner turned and Brunson fell down and they called a foul. Turner also attacked the rim with the ball high and got his arm slapped that the ball just fell out and nothing. Next play was a minor touch on the hip and Knicks got a call. Both were fouls but Turner's not getting called could be the reason the Knicks even are in position to get fouled.
@@Bobbleheads56 whats the point of home court advantage then? Might as well play on a neutral environment broski
“Incredible watching him warming up in MSG, seeing how the foot feels”
It was a sore foot, Ryen. Take it easy lol
Where’s the nuggets talk? I want to drink your tears 😂
He picked the T wolves to win the series before it started
I don't think you know how much he loves ant.
He’s a jokic boot licker. He’s in shambles rn as im dancing to the bank🤣🤣
