Knicks need to figure out a way to tighten their defense as Pacers score too easily inside.

Siakam is scoring at will.

Rick Carlisle is a top-5 coach of his generation.

How about that NMSU Legend Pascal Siakam! Making us nmsu alum proud.

He was a regular at the UCLA runs in the summer where the pros play with the college kids. I think it was Matt Barnes who kept saying he was going to be really good. Bryant the big guy was another regular at the games.

Glad Minnesota is being competitive. Will be interesting to see how OKC responds. They've been trounced.

Impressive response from Minny. Should set up a hell of a game 4.

The question is why hadn't this already happened? I know they don't want to wear him down but they are just so much better when he's on the court.
