Tonight at Madison Square Garden, the New York Knicks (34*-19) host the Indiana Pacers (13-40). The Knicks are riding high, winning nine of their last ten tries, while the Pacers are dutifully clearing the conference drain of clogs. For tonight’s tilt, Mitchell Robinson (mgmt) and OG Anunoby (toe) will be out. With New York slated to play in Philly tomorrow night, a smart strategy would be for the healthy starters to slam the lid on this one early and let the bench crew—Kolek! Alvarado! Diawara! McCullar!—shovel the dirt on the coffin.
Tip-off is 7:30 pm EST on MSG. This is your game thread. This is Indy Cornrows. Please don’t post large photos, GIFs, or links to illegal streams in the thread. Enjoy each other’s company, respectfully. And go Knickerbockers!
* Should be one more, but the Cup final doesn’t count.
