The Pacers saw a golden opportunity slip through their fingers on Monday night as they fell to the Knicks 121-117 in Game 1. It was a huge letdown, not only because the Pacers seemingly had the Knicks on the ropes but got huge performances from their bench. Some crucial turnovers, a huge fourth quarter by Jalen Brunson, some questionable calls by officials as well as a no-show performance by Tyrese Haliburton put the Pacers in a 0-1 hole.
On Tuesday’s show, ESPN’s Brian Windhorst joined us and discussed everything from the questionable officiating calls that played a major role in the final minutes of the game, Tyrese Haliburton’s health, Jalen Brunson’s revenge tour and a whole lot more.
He’s a shell of the player he was in December. I just know that since he did the splits he hasn’t been the same player. There’s no way he can be himself. There’s just no way. – Brian Windhorst on Tyrese Haliburton’s health
