Thibodeau gave an update to Jalen Brunson after he left the game with a fractured hand and OG Anunoby who started the game but did not return after the first quarter.

Valiant effort from the team. Plagued with injuries all season long. Kudos for continuing to play through it.
KNICKS, we all love you. You gave it your all considering the amount of injuries. It’s now up to management find the team some 7-footers who can shoot the midrange jumper. We need to take pressure off Jalen. A team should not be able to triple team him and not pay the price.
Nothing to be upset about. We played our hearts out, and lost to an offensive performance for the ages. I agree, if healthy it would’ve been different. But that’s not where we were just yet
Stop with the minutes narrative! It’s false. Jalen Brunson was 14th in minutes per game this season. In the playoffs, bench players played starters minutes and starters played endless minutes, BECAUSE THEY HAD TO.

Yes, a power forward who can rebound and shoot. We have no bigs who can shoot
If they were able to keep the group they ended the regular season with healthy, the results would most likely have been different. It's a great team. Even if they had somehow triumphed today, there's no way they would have competed in the finals w/o Brunson and Hart. It's better they went down now.
No OG couldn’t play any more 😢and JB goes out too not even fair man 🙄👏🏼 they gave it all . All I can say now is go Boston as much as don’t crush the pacers !!! I will say pacers played physical all series especially on Brunson and he never got enough calls but can’t complain any more they outplayed us .
I do like thibs mindset. But 48 is a lot to ask. 40 is reasonable. At least it gives some time for these guys to rest
Thibs congratulations was so sincere, the same as Carlisle’s excuses about the refs in the first two games! It says a lot about both coaches and teams! Really hoping the Celtics annihilate the soft Pacers in four straight! Come on Tatem and Brown!
This team has the makings of a Champion all they need to do is get everyone healthy to play at 100% and add a couple more pieces to strengthen their bench. Thibs is the coach good enough I believe to lead them to a championship.
Great coach but gotta trust your bench more. Gotta buy a few min here and there. OG and Hart’s injuries are definitely from overuse
A lot of Knicks fans are also Yankees fans and they always use the ex - cuse of injuries when both teams lose. FYI 1. ALL TEAMS HAVE INJURIES❗ 2. GOOD TEAMS PRE - PARE FOR AND OVER- COME INJURIES ‼️ 😥😫🤧

If the knocks has a healthy OF it’s a sweep for sure. Forget if they had Randle and Bogdanovich. The pacers are awful. They only beat the bucks and knocks becasue they played them with a lot of injuries.
This is what is expected from a 6 and 7 man rotation for 13 games.
While injuries isn’t an excuse and an explanation, you cannot allow any team to side over 70% and expect to win the game.

It is amazing that the Knicks had all these injuries. I have not seen anything like this. We can second guess after this easy. Why do you have Hart guarding Pascal . Alec Burke should have started, Precious should have started. Hart hurt the team because he was injured. I love his will to play, but he was not effective.
One of the great teams in bball history
Because you drained (pause..)..it out of them in the regular season and 1st round.....just so you can have succerz be blinded by your Regular season win totals.....Fugazi.
Knicks lost Brunson with a broken hand, were without Robinson, no OG, no BB, no Randle they've played heavy minutes with no bench. They weren't healthy at all. They were short handed. Let's see the Pacers shoot 71 percent from the field against Boston and the Nuggets 😂
