Paul George and the Indiana Pacers suffered an embarrassing loss to the New York Knicks in Madison Square Garden on Tuesday night.
The Good: Myles Turner had another good game, so hopefully he’s out of that shooting slump he was in. Other than that, nothing good came from this one. An ugly performance from the Indiana Pacers.
The Bad: It’s hard to imagine Paul George once envisioned this team potentially averaging 115 points per game. They scored less than 30 points in the second half, and finished the game with 79.
MVP: Carmelo Anthony started slow, but like all stars, finished strong. He made shot after shot in the fourth quarter and finished with a game high 22 points.
LVP: Jeff Teague had a very sloppy night. He shot 4 of 15 from the field for 9 points. He had 7 rebounds and 6 assists, but he also turned the ball over 7 times. A game to forget for Teague.
X-Factor: Willy Hernangomez played huge for the Knicks. He was a monster on the glass, grabbing 16 rebounds. He also had 13 points.
