Mikal Bridge and Karl Anthony towns agree what was wrong for the Knicks in Game 2
SHARE

The New York Knicks lost their second straight home game as they were 0-2 against the Indiana Pacers. The towns of Mikal Bridges and Karl Anthony gave us a glimpse into their problems.

The New York Knicks are in trouble after two defeats at Madison Square Garden. They play for games 3 and 4 against the Streaking Indiana Pacers as an Indianapolis away team.

The Knicks were winning Game 1, which is a key issue for the Knicks. The Pacers magic started because they always find a way to come back. Currently, Indiana has full control of the series with a 2-0 lead.

It was a rough Eastern Conference Finals series for the Knicks. They were trying to win Game 1, but the Pacers stopped making a great comeback. New York tried to bounce back in Game 2, but the Pacers outperformed all games.

A major issue that occurred in Game 2 was the absence of Karl Anthony Town in the fourth quarter. He only played 28 minutes, but it was unique as he had 20 points and seven rebounds.

But Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau thought the more defensive lineup would work. That didn’t happen as the Pacers continued to dominate and won by a score of 114-109.

Tom Thibodeau explains why Karl Anthony Towns didn’t play much in the fourth quarter.

In the case of bridges and towns, they feel they are losing the game at the start and start. They hindered them as the Pacers control the pace for most of the series.

“I don’t know. Maybe it’s defensive. I think we have to talk from the jump. From the jump it’s physical. I think it’s just too soft at the beginning of half,” Bridges said after Game 2.

“We went into the deficit, and they showed us how we couldn’t keep doing that, and every time we can fight back, we win.

“I told you about the word ‘history’, I’m not here to repeat it, we’re here to make it. Especially if you learn something last year, as soon as you win two games, it’s as fast as you lose two games.

It looks unlikely that they’ll come back and win the series, but the Knicks will do their best. They still have a strong team led by superstar guard Jalen Branson. He is good in two games, but needs the help of his teammates.

The bridges and towns are doing relatively well, but the game still needs to be strengthened. They don’t defend to the level they need to defeat the Pacers. Everyone knows that Pacer is a well-balanced team with a rebellious attitude, but the Knicks can go to their toes.

They have to regain what they worked in the first three thirds of the series as they led in Game 1. It’s a tough battle with their home floor pacers, but anything is possible for New York.

“No one is going any further than me. There’s a lot to do.”

Bridges and town insights show that they know their problems well. Thibodeau prepares his team to participate in games 3 and 4. Rick Carlisle and his Pacers do their best to close it with a sweep. But the Knicks are too competitive to do that easily.
