Result: Loss
This is a 5* play on IND.
The Knicks might be in big trouble here, as both Jalen Brunson and OG Anunoby suffered injuries in Game 2. Brunson was able to play through the pain, while Anunoby left and did not return. It seems likely that one or both could be unavailable for Game 3. Of course Brunson gets all the headlines as he's leading the playoffs in scoring, but keep in mind that the Knicks were only considered a contender after the trade that brought in OG Anunoby from Toronto. Without him they have a record of 30-29, and with him they were 20-3 during the regular season, and 6-2 in the playoffs. He's their best defender, and it would be a huge loss if he misses any time. Already without Julius Randle, Mitchell Robinson, and Bojan Bogdanovic, the Knicks are running out of bodies to throw out there. Next man up only works when you have the depth on the bench, and right now the Knicks don't have any depth. Indiana on the other hand has seven guys averaging double digits in scoring. Tyrese Haliburton scored 34 points despite being listed as questionable for Game 2. I like the Pacers to win Game 3 wire to wire, and I really think New York is in trouble in this series moving forward.
