The Knicks didn't come to play and that was nearly on every front. Knicks Lead Man Mike Woodson is going to have to make subtle adjustments on how they do business on the offensive end as 'Melo just can't get loose. The Pacers get the "W" 82-71 and they had the Game at their "PACE" the whole night.

The Pacers just simply played Big when the Knicks tried to go small and it worked. they pounded the Orange down to their Bigs Area 55 (24 pts 12 rebs) and D-West (11 pts 12 rebs) and then played off of outstanding lead guard play by NAPtown Native George Hill (17 pts 6 rebs) and All-Star Big Guard Paul George (14 pts 8 rebs 8 helpers 5 thefts and he was the Bully's (Melo) Shadow all night long) as the Pacers put that Blueprint out there for all the Knicks to see and dissect one would think for game four.

'Melo was the only one in double figures with 21 points and five boards. He didn't have a high volume of shots and that's where teammates like "get Shots' J.R., Ray, 21 Shump Street, and even Prigioni have to step up take responsibility and attack with the Orange when it comes their way. The Knicks had one player in double figure rebounds and that was Shump with 10 boards. It's not so much Schematically talking Knicks as its the two E's...Effort and Efficiency.

Game Four is on Tuesday and expect the Knicks to get out of Indy for now and live to play another Day. The Pacers know that #KnicksTape can erupt at any juncture and they needed to be on point for Game Four on Tuesday.

That Special Place the Pacers took the Knicks was hopefully for Knicks Coaches and Players the Chalkboard...D*mn!
