ASA top play on 10* UNDER 218.5 NY Knicks at Indiana Pacers – Game 4 Sunday - The Knicks short rotation is starting to wear down. Coach Thibadeau has been criticized in the past for not using his bench players and that could be a key factor as this series goes on. In Game 3 the Knicks only managed 16 points in the 4th quarter and 106 for the game. If it weren’t for an unbelievable 3-point shooting night the Knicks certainly don’t reach 100-points. New York was 52% from beyond the arc in Game 3, making 14 of 27 3-pointers. NY shoots 37.2% on the season which is barely above average. The Pacers 3PT% defense is 16th in the NBA allowing 36.7%. Indiana had an average game by their standards with a 47% shooting game and hit 38% from Deep. For the game though these two teams combined for 169 FG attempts which is below the league standard of 177. Both teams pace of play numbers have dropped significantly in the playoffs compared to their regular season tempo. There are several key players for both teams that are not 100% including Haliburton and Nesmith for the Pacers and Brunson continues to play through a sore foot. Any way we slice it we don’t see these two teams combining for more than 215 total points.
