If you’ve watched NBA this week you have seen home court favorite NY Knicks, go down 2 games to 0. The Knicks had a huge lead in game one only to blow it in OT. Game 2 wasn’t as much as a nailbiter but was close too, with the Pacers pulling off the 5-point win 114-109.
Pascal Siakam went off on the Knicks and put up 39 points. Even Tyrese Halliburton only had to chip in 14 points in this one after leading the Pacers in scoring in game 1 with 31 points.
Can the Knicks come back to win the series. It’s definitely possible. And the payout is really nice too.
