Indiana Pacers fans should be happy despite losing Game 3 against the New York Knicks.
After a 2-0 lead at Madison Square Garden, the Indiana Pacers headed home in hopes of taking another blow to the New York Knicks.
Because of its value, Pacer was in command position as he took a double-digit lead in the game in Game 3.
However, the Knicks made a spectacular comeback to register a 106-100 victory on the Pacer, driven by a 24-point double-double from the town of Karl Anthony.
The Pacers, led by Tyrese Haliburton, are undergoing Cinderella running during the 2025 NBA playoffs. They have already made history with a few records.
The Knicks’ Game 3 victory made the Eastern Conference Finals interesting, but one stat points to the leaning in favor of Pacers.
how? Well, Pacers may be 0-3 in Game 3 this postseason, but they also have an astounding 4-0 record in Games 4 and 5.
Interestingly, Pacer was undefeated in games 1 and 2 of the playoffs, holding a 6-0 record for his opponents.
If the first two rounds are proven, that means the Knicks need to prepare for a stunning Game 4 performance from the pacer.
Prior to the much-anticipated Game 4 battle between the two sides, Pacer has multiple things to worry about.
First of all, there are concerns about Aaron Nesmith, who suffered from an ankle sprain in Game 3 loss. Head coach Rick Carlisle believes his early diagnosis has shown positive signs, but he believes there will be a more detailed update tomorrow.
Coming to the second and more important concern for the Pacers is the form of Jalen Brunson. Branson has an incredible playoff run, as shown in the first two rounds.
In fact, Branson issued a message to the Pacers as the Knicks erased a 20-point lead in Game 3. With that in mind, it will be interesting to see how Indy responds to Branson’s reminders.
