With Tyrese Haliburton, the Indiana Pacers secured a victory against the New York Knicks, driven by their determination to stay in the playoffs. Their 116-103 win was bolstered by an impressive performance from Pascal Siakam. Siakam scored 25 points on 11-of-21 shooting against the Knicks.
This victory has put the Knicks on the brink of elimination. Meanwhile, Haliburton attributes their success to a game-first mentality and a strong desire to end the game with a win.
“Us [Pacers] being down 3-2, the pressure was on us. We had to come out and play harder for 48 minutes, and we have to maintain that going into Game 7,” Haliburton said.
The Knicks faced significant challenges during the game. They missed key players like Mitchell Robinson, Bojan Bogdanovic, and Julius Randle. In contrast, the Pacers found a winning formula that worked in Game 6. Haliburton’s team will likely stick with this successful approach, forcing the Knicks to adapt if they hope to turn the series around in Game 7.
