    Indiana fans hoping the media's incessant talk about the Knicks' injuries and depletion and fatigue and exhaustion is seeping into their players' subconscious, planting a subliminal hypnotic suggestion that will make them believe they're too hurt and tired to even walk, let alone compete against the deep, tireless Pacers.
    Just like it did in Game 4.
    Hear that, Brunson? You are getting sleepy...sleepy...your foot feels like it's on fire...you have the stamina of a sedentary 400-pound COPD patient (wheeze, wheeze)...every step and breath is a painful struggle...you CANNOT SCORE against Nesmith, McConnell, Nemhard...Knicks, your painful, heavy arms are shooting a medicine ball, a bowling ball, a 1-ton iron anvil...Pacers are too young, deep, fresh, and talented...Knicks, you are undermanned, shorthanded, exhausted, and in pain, and you have no chance to win...listen to the whispers of your media masters. Now, on the count of 10, awaken.
    Let's see if that works. If it does, well, thanks, ESPNY!

  • @lajaunescott9273
    @lajaunescott9273 Před 17 dny +1

    3:15 Why toss out Game 4? Many believe that the Pacers have been the better team this series & they lost those first 2 games in New York more than the Knicks won them. So Game 4 showed how if the Pacers play their best ball the Knicks can't touch them especially with all the injuries to key players the Knicks are currently suffering from.

      Boston would win in 6 and likely lose one at home for some odd reason. Boston is deeper and better on defense. But neither team is beating whoever comes out of the West. The East is essentially the healthiest team will prevail while the west is actually a dogfight. Celtics and Pacers benefiting hard from their opponents not being 100% and I know they are also somewhat unhealthy but Bucks, Heat, Knicks and Cavs are all missing one or two all stars each.

    Anybody else kinda tired of Tyrese Haliburton being a front runner? Him and Devin Booker man.

      How are they overhyped. The lineup is decimated. Thats the only reason the garbage Pacers could win. Philly was tougher than these scrubs who are lucky to play the injured Bucks
