That as the later this series goes, with the fact that Pacers are a deeper team, this is something that could work to their edge.

So let me play out a scenario, especially coming off the way they lost in game one.

Knicks are up big in the fourth quarter.

Does Tibbs call off the dogs?

You just blew a big lead, but you want to arrest these guys.

You assume the series is going long.

What does he do?

No, I don't even think he has to do with that.

He didn't do that in Boston until, what, five minutes left in the game?

To me, it has nothing to do with sitting my guys.

That's not it.

It's trying to change the tone of this series by not having Indiana dictate.

No, I understand that.

Play your style.

I wouldn't be sitting guys.

I think you've got to put your foot on the guest to win games when the opportunity is in front of you.

Totally agree.

So it has nothing to do with sitting guys.

It has to do with, and it's a challenge.

It's easier said than done.

But how do you find a way to not play Pacer basketball?

You have to grind it out. get him in the half court. Yeah. And there's times where it's just like that inbound O.B.
