Very painful defeat for New York Knicks against Indiana Pacers in Game 1 of the Eastern Finals. It seemed like they had everything under control, with outstanding performances from Jalen Brunson and Karl Anthony-Towns, but they blew it in the end by allowing a 7-point comeback in the final minute to lose in overtime. Here are the best reactions from New Yorkers after the painful loss.
JOSH HART
"Defensively, we took our foot off the gas. The intensity and physicality were not there. Offensively, we played slower and more static. It seemed like we were playing not to lose."
KARL ANTHONY TOWNS
"There were many things we did right and put ourselves in a position to win. We played 46 good minutes. Those two minutes [are] where we lost the game, and that's on all of us."
TOM THIBODEAU
"He had too much space to shoot" (referring to Haliburton's key play).
JALEN BRUNSON
"In the playoffs, when you win, it's the best feeling in the world. When you lose, you're the worst in the world."
