Indiana Pacers vs New York Knicks: Current situation
Indiana is now just two games away from the promise land. They’ve not been to the NBA Finals in 25 years, you have to like their chances with the next two games being played on their home court. We are truly witnessing a historic postseason run here – the Pacers have now won the opening two road games in a series twice, prior to this they had done so once in franchise history prior (1994 first Round series vs Magic).
For the first time this postseason the Knicks have lost back-to-back games and it couldn’t come at a worse time. Expectations were high going into the series against the Pacers, but it all came back down to Earth after the Knicks lost both home games to open the series. Pressure is on them now to at least get a split in Indiana what would secure them one more home game at MSG.
Indiana Pacers Stats & Form
The 39 points scored in Game 2 was a Playoff career high for Pascal Siakam who drained 15 of 23 shots from the field. Only Reggie Miller (11) and Paul George (4) have now had more 35+ point games in Pacers postseason history. No Indiana player scored this many points since Paul George did it back in 2016, which just highlights how big of a performance this was.
New York Knicks Stats & Form
The home form of the Knicks this postseason has been a disaster. Friday’s loss at MSG was the 5th time they dropped a game there, this has never happened before in a season for New York. Jalen Brunson did his part with 36 points and 11 assists, with Karl-Anthony Towns and Mikal Bridges each contributing with 20 points of their own. However, the bench scored just 11 points total which just wasn’t enough.
Indiana Pacers vs New York Knicks: Head-to-Head
Friday’s game marked the 5th time the Pacers and Knicks faced off this year, from a bettors perspective it made more sense to back Indiana to cover as they are now 4-2 ATS in the last 6 meetings. However, going into Game 3 the Pacers need to be aware that New York is 9-4 SU in 13 visits to Indianapolis.
Indiana Pacers – New York Knicks Odds
Odds for another Pacers win in this series are at 8/11 going into Game 3, while if you like the Knicks you can get 23/20.
The point total has been set at 223 points, with odds of 10/11 supporting either the over or the under.

Betting tip and prediction: Indiana Pacers vs New York Knicks (25.05.2025.)
Things are slowly getting out of hand from the New York Knicks in this series. They find themselves in a 2-0 hole after a pair of home games and if you’re a Knicks fan your level of optimism is at an all-time low right now. To make matters the Knicks have never been able to overturn a 2-0 deficit (0-14) and to make matters worse their opponent the Indiana Pacers have never lost a best-of-seven series when leading 2-0 (9-0). Jalen Brunson is the only Knicks that has lived up to expectations so far in this series, New York is basically playing without any bench production whatsoever and it’s hard to win this deep into the postseason when that’s the case. Pascal Siakam picked the perfect game to have his best ever game in the Playoffs in Game 2 scoring 39 points, as he tore the Knicks defense apart from every single spot on the court. It’s hard to talk about adjustments going into Game 3 here for the Knicks, because no matter what they try his team has them seemingly figured out. Indiana has won 4 straight postseason games in this match-up, we could be headed towards a sweep here. Let’s back Indiana to once again win and cover the spread.
