The only Knicks' player that is younger than 27 is Iman Shumpert; The only Pacers' player that is older than 27 is David West.
The Knicks are in "win-now" mode.  A little stupid IMO because they have no shot at the championship this year.

And hopefully it will bite them in the a$$ down the road when they have no future.

Poor management.

Beautiful pull up jump shot from 10 feet in transition going left from Durant. Over M.Gasol and T.Prince.

Fisher pokes it away from Conley, turnover, Oklahoma run up the other end and Durant drops a quick 22 foot jump shot in transition. OKC up one. 11 seconds left.

Huge plays by Fisher and Durant.

Perkins did a great job not letting Gasol get the ball. And what a shot by Durant

Pondexter just bailed Reggie Jackson out big time. Got to make the free throws

And this is why we learn how to make free throws.

Hear that, Dwight? Rondo? Smith? LeBron? PONDEXTER?
Jeff Green - Top 5 SF

The Knicks only had one offensive rebound in the first half against the Pacersthe b part. They usually had more than that by the second minute of the game against us. 

It's so frustrating that the  Celtics have been so bad in one of the most fundamental areas of the game the past four seasons . Hey, at least Ainge tried to address this problem by bringing in terrible rebounders. Rebounds, why should the Celtics care about stinking rebounds? They got all the way to the 2010 Finals without being able to rebound.

Indiana were the best rebounding team in the league this year. Boston were the worst.

Night and day for New York.

Somewhere Jeff Green is still trying to block out Tyson Chandler, not with his back and behind but by face guarding him.  In that same somewhere, Chandler is batting the ball out for offensive rebounds or picking up could on Green.

I love seeing Kenyon Martin (PF) + Tyson Chandler (C) on the floor together.

Terrific defensive combination.

If Amare gets back in time and is in shape, I think he could do a lot of damage against Roy Hibbert. Amare's quickness and high skill-level would be impossible for Roy Hibbert to check + Amare's jump-shooting would stop Hibbert from just camping out in the paint like he is against Tyson Chandler on so many of these possessions.

It really wouldn't surprise me to see the Pacers sweep the Knicks.  The Knicks have to face a legitimate NBA team that doesn't totally eschew important aspects of the game.  It's got to be jarring.

The Knicks played "small" with Carmelo but they were still bigger than the Celtics since Carmelo is bigger than Bass and a better rebounder to boot.

Amare wouldn't be too effective defensively against Hibbert or West.  He's sure to get killed on the boards and wouldn't put up much of a stand in the post.
