And we are back, folks here on the Michigan Insider on the Big 1050 WTKA online at the big 1050.com, Sam Webb.

Mr. Ira Wine, drop on the other side of joining us as he does every single Tuesday is our good friend, Eric Adelson, EA. Good morning. How are you?

What's up, Sam? How are you?

Doing great, my friend. Glad to catch up with you.

As always, after a holiday weekend and after more great NBA playoff action, and I thought I was going to join you, you know, basically popping my collar because, I mean, I think we were both aligned on the Western Conference playoff pick, I think, and talking about OKC.

But we were split in the Eastern Conference.

You were talking about the Knicks, and I was pretty confident about the Pacers saying, hey, EA,

I think Pacers are going to get this one, man.

I'm feeling really good, looking really good.

Heading into this series, man, everyone saying the Knicks got it, but I think the Pacers are going to be

able to pull this one out. And they were up 20 points at home with a chance to go up 3-0.

And EA, while they're still looking at a 2-1 lead heading in the game four, I don't know, man.

I don't know if I feel as good anymore after they squandered a 20-point lead and then let the knicks up off the mat.

What do you think about this series so far?

Yeah, I mean, you're looking more accurate than me right now.

That's for sure, Sam.

But that is the kind of loss that can change a series.

When you have them now, when you have them down on the mat,

and then you let them off the mat, things can change.

And, I mean, Carl Anthony Towns was insane.

And so I think that if you get both of those guys going, Brunson and Towns,

I still think the Knicks can win the series.
