There were too many missed opportunities tonight for the Indiana Pacers to come up with a win against the New York Knicks, but that’s a fairly remarkable sentiment to have given where this game was with 7:40 remaining in the third quarter. Down 25 and mounting injuries, the Pacers trailed by just three with 1:22 remaining in the fourth, but couldn’t complete the comeback, dropping their third straight road game.
It took a long time for the Pacers to find a rotation that worked, namely because prior to the game, both Aaron Nesmith and Oshae Brissett were late scratches.
