Tony East: “In my experience in this league, I think it’s best when players decide the outcome of the game,” Myles Turner says. He added that the Pacers can’t leave the game to be decided by the refs, though he added he’s looking forwad to the Last 2 Minutes report coming out.

Myles Turner: “I think it’s best when the players decide the outcome of the game.”
“I think we’re all looking forward to the Last 2 Minute Report coming out. I think there were 2 controversial calls. The kick ball by Aaron Nesmith was not a kick ball. You clearly see on replay.” pic.twitter.com/zqiHuV7yrP – 11:14 PM

Myles Turner: “We reviewed it; they still called it an illegal screen. But it’s the playoffs, man. I feel like DiVincenzo did a good job of selling it. For the most part you can’t leave the game to be decided by the refs. So we have to take accountability as well.” pic.twitter.com/0GXYW3dZlQ – 11:12 PM

“I don’t want to talk about the officiating,” Rick Carlisle said. “We’re not expecting to get calls in here.”
He didn’t seem pleased about the offensive foul on Myles Turner’s screen that didn’t get reversed. – 10:32 PM

Oof. That’s a tough one. Myles Turner called for a moving screen 45 feet from the basket. – 10:05 PM

Man, Myles Turner’s rim protection has really declined in the last couple of years. Knicks just not feeling him at all. – 9:21 PM

After 3: Pacers 87, Knicks 82
A bonkers final 90 seconds of the third quarter for both sides ends with Myles Turner emphatically burying a triple at the buzzer.
Obi Toppin with some good minutes vs his former team, including a between the legs windmill dunk in transition. – 9:21 PM

So far, Jalen Brunson has 10 points on 3/4 FG, and Pascal Siakam and Myles Turner are a combined 0/3 from downtown, and Brunson has drawn a foul on Andrew Nembhard, his primary defender. – 7:50 PM

Hope I’m wrong but Pacers in 7. Knicks lack of size at power forward finally catches up. Myles Turner draining 3’s is X-factor as is Obi’s fastbreak dunks. Knicks beat Embiid on 1 leg. #howu pic.twitter.com/9EkmeecJP7 – 1:33 PM

Michael Scotto: Rick Carlisle on the Myles Turner illegal screen call: “I don’t want to talk about the officiating. We’re not expecting to get calls in here. It would be nice if they laid off that one, but they didn’t. That’s just the way it goes. We challenged it. They reviewed it. They’ve got a bunch of people in New Jersey that agreed with them, so that’s just the way it goes.” pic.twitter.com/tx9dyi9vr3 -via Twitter @MikeAScotto / May 6, 2024
