00:03 The other game seven yesterday,
00:04 as painful as it is for me to bring up with you,
00:07 was the Pacers beating the Knicks 130 to 109.
00:11 Now, I thought this was the moment.
00:13 Now, the most of this game was nonsense.
00:16 The Pacers beat 'em up.
00:17 There was a moment in the third quarter, Scotty,
00:20 where the Knicks got it to seven.
00:23 Garden started to rock a little bit.
00:25 You thought maybe there was a chance the tide was changing.
00:29 And then the Pacers here scored five points
00:32 in a span of about four seconds,
00:34 got it back to double digits,
00:36 and they never looked back on ESPN ABC.
00:38 - Dive, Archdie, good defense.
00:41 Nismith fakes, Nismith drives, Nismith scores.
00:45 All five starters and double figures for the Pacers.
00:48 Another steal on the inbounds, count it, and a foul!
00:53 Nismith snuck in and got hit.
00:55 - Oh, God.
00:56 Oh, my God, reliving it is the worst.
00:59 I'll tell you what, the way they shot in the first half.
01:03 Now, go figure, I kid you not.
01:05 Today I played, and I hit 10 of 11 shots today
01:09 playing basketball, and I thought I was on the Pacers
01:13 because I never go 10 of 11 from outside and scoring.
01:17 And I hit every shot.
01:18 The last shot I took today, I lost, I missed.
01:21 But I hit 10 in a row, and I was on fire,
01:24 and I felt like the Pacers.
01:26 I have never seen a team make that many shots
01:30 in a half of an NBA game in my life.
01:33 They didn't miss a shot.
01:35 I mean, even in the second, I think they were 13 of 17.
01:40 The first, it was just insane.
01:42 They were 76%.
01:44 So, you're just done.
01:47 If a team is that hot, you're done.
01:51 It's over.
01:52 You can't win the game when a team,
01:55 I don't care what anybody says, what were the ups?
01:57 By 15 at the half, the Knicks could have come back,
02:01 but they didn't.
02:02 The point is, is that rarely,
02:05 so what was weird was the nightcap had happened.
02:08 They were up 15, went up 20, and lost.
02:10 It is so rare that a team has a giant lead at the half
02:15 and shoots that well, and then loses the game,
02:18 or that comes out and goes ice cold.
02:20 They never did.
02:21 - They never did, that's for sure.
02:24 Made a ton of shots on their way to scoring a buck 30
02:28 at the Garden against the Knicks.
