2015-16 Game Thread: Knicks @ Pacers

Oops, I thought that this was a later game.

I think the Knicks match up well against the Pacers. Monta Ellis is really not all that good. I’m okay with his 50% True Shooting Percentage going nuts.

It will be fun to finally see Myles Turner against the Knicks.

There’s no draft pick waiting for them, so let’s go Knicks!
