G3: The walker regrets to let the tiger return to the mountain, and Towns has a rare timely help!

The Knicks won a game away. The two teams should be heading towards a tiebreak at the moment. Their strength is too close, they have advantages and weak rings. They have been 20 points behind in three games, and finally have a big reversal. Today's situation is already very critical for the Knicks. The number one star is in extremely bad condition, but the Pacers did not seize the opportunity, exposing the problem of having no core star. That is, they can rely on the team to survive the dangerous situation, but in the face of a good situation, they can actually not defend and their state is very unstable. In the stage of Towns chasing points all the way in the final quarter, as long as there is a top star who can maintain the situation, the Knicks have been eliminated. It can only be said that it is a team battle, and the defeat is also a team battle!

Downs today is considered to save the team from the fire. As for why it is in the fire, let's not talk about it today. In fact, when facing the Pacers' defense, the Pacers' defense really does not have too strong talent. They all rely on collective rotation. Turner, the inside, is just average on the defensive end. Therefore, it is a bit unreasonable that Towns did not show convincing performance in the previous two games, but today, when the team is in the most dangerous situation, it is considered a rare timely help scene in his career. After this game, I believe that Towns should rebuild confidence in this series!

The Pacers' loss today is a team battle, and there is no star in the main, but from the details, Nesmith's sudden injury has a great impact on the Pacers. Nesmith not only has an excellent offense, but he is also the best player in the Pacers' outside defense. When the team was in full swing, his end was personally felt that the Pacers did not have a decisive impact on the Pacers' final victory. The team led by 20 points, and the defense was not stable. In the last moment, he played again and handled the ball several times, and it was obvious that he could not get into the rhythm. Facing the opponent's strong defense, Anunobi, was hard, and his offensive state was obviously wrong. In the end, he could only regret losing. If he could always be on the court, the Pacers might have accepted this game!

Brunson performed extremely poorly in this game, and also exposed his defensive shortcomings. It was too short and was grabbed and beaten by the Pacers. Brunson's defense can be regarded as the worst among all the teams in the playoffs. Among these main players, they are almost the worst. They are too short and moved too slowly, even worse than Doncic's defense. Doncic at least has a big and tall body. Brunson's defense is nothing. Last year, he signed that big contract. Some people seem to say that it's a pity. He got a little bit less. In fact, it may not be, because once there is a problem with the offense or is injured, he will almost lose all his role in the team. Of course, his offensive stability is still good. This game is obviously confused by the Pacers' defensive end and a large number of fouls have been compensated, which has led to an imbalance in his offensive end mentality. However, it has to be said that it is difficult for the Pacers to be so effective as today!

The Pacers failed to seize the great opportunity today, and they were almost locked in to advance, but if they let the tiger go back to the mountain, this series may be guaranteed to go to six games!
