00:00All right, I want to hear Rick Carlisle's vision of this thing.
00:04Yeah, well, you know how Rick usually runs things.
00:07Short, sweet, and to the point.
00:09He doesn't like to mess around.
00:10He doesn't have time to break down his rick.
00:12Very busy.
00:13We obviously didn't play with the level of force that we needed to.
00:20We lost the rebound battle.
00:22We lost the turnover battle.
00:24We didn't shoot well.
00:26They had a lot to do with it, so give them credit.
00:28And we're going to have to play much better.
00:32He screams and yells a lot at the refs, too.
00:34He never stops complaining.
00:36Meanwhile, I got to be honest with you, and I'm a Knick fan, fair enough,
00:40but I have told you on a number of occasions that I think it's been called evenly
00:46in terms of the numbers, the number of fouls, the number of free throws,
00:50I have no problem with.
00:51It's the type of fouls that I'm talking about that bother me.
00:55I think you touch the Pacers, they're at the line.
00:58Again, you crucify the Knicks, and you can get away with murder against them,
01:04but if you even touch the Pacers, they're at the free throw line.
01:07Like, so I'm watching guys get shoved in the back,
01:10watching a guy get his hip blown out.
01:12He's laying on the ground cripple and no call ever.
01:15I have thought that the calls are different in terms of they call the same amount of fouls,
01:20but they're different.
01:22They're touch fouls.
01:23They're hammer fouls.
01:24And I just think there's been a big difference in it.
01:27And I think when the Knicks play in Indy, they get,
01:29I really think they get screwed with the touch fouls.
01:33Like, you barely touch them, and they call everything.
01:35And then this guy, Carlisle, screaming and yelling and cussing at the refs.
01:39And really, for the most part, honest to God, Thibodeau doesn't do it.
01:43He'll let him have it a little bit.
01:45You realize this guy, Thibodeau's, like, never had a technical in his entire career?
01:48He doesn't cuss people out, and Carlisle does.
01:52Carlisle freaks on refs.
01:54He comes right out on the court.
01:55He's at the free throw line screaming at them.
01:58Like, he's crazy.
02:00Screw them.
02:01They get too many easy calls in Indy.
02:03Honestly, I'm sick and tired of it.
02:05And I can't stand this guy anymore, either.
02:07I can't stand him or his stupid-ass father.
02:10Well, here is Halliburton.
02:12As we've already said, a miserable night last night in game number five.
02:17He says, don't worry about it.
02:18He's not worried.
02:19He'll be back tomorrow.
02:20No, no.
02:21I mean, we're up 3-1.
02:23Their season's on the line today.
02:24You know, so I understand they're going to come out and play hard.
02:28You know, increase the pressure.
02:29Do whatever they got to do to win.
02:31And they did a great job of that.
02:32And, you know, now it's on us to respond in game six.
02:36So, I think when you get here at this point, there's no such thing as surprises.
02:41You know, you got to be prepared for whatever is to come.
02:46So, you know, kudos to them.
02:48They played better than us today.
02:49And we got to be prepared for game six.
02:51I pray to God and lighting candle.
02:57Honestly, like, I hoped, you have no idea how much I pray that they upset them on Saturday in Indy.
03:05And that we have a game seven Monday night.
03:07That's all I live for.
03:08And all the other nonsense, you can have it.
03:11Do it at whatever the F you want to do with it.
03:14I have no time for anything else.
03:15I need the Knicks to win again.
03:16Last night, I thought it was easy work.
03:19I mean, you have to win.
03:20Now, you have to win on the road.
03:22You've been a great road team in the playoffs.
03:25So, go get one and get it done.
03:28Get a piece.
03:29Show up and steal this and bring it home.
03:33And let's have a game seven Monday night.
03:35If it ends in six, I think it's a drag.
03:38And if it goes seven, it's as good as it gets.
03:41At the Garden on Monday night, it doesn't get better than that.
03:44That's the best place in any league for a game seven is Madison Square Garden.
03:51I'm telling you.
