On May 13, Beijing time, the NBA playoffs division semifinals G4, the Pacers defeated the Knicks 121-89 at home, and the team won G4, and this round of the series will enter the battle of Tianwang Mountain. In this game, the Knicks played abnormally, Brunson rarely pulled his hips and only scored 18 points on 6-of-17 shooting, and Hart, who had performed well, only got 2 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists, it is worth mentioning that he only played 24 minutes this year to set a new low in the playoffs, which is also his first playoff time of less than 40 minutes this year, DiVincenzo only scored 7 points, and the starting performance was terrible. On the other hand, on the Pacers' side, Haliburton scored 20 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists, McConaughey scored 15 points and 10 assists, Sika contributed 14 points, Turner also scored 13 points, and the whole team of 6 scored double-doubles, and the overall performance beat the Knicks.

In fact, in the first three games of the series between the two sides, both teams played very closely, and the difference was within 10 points, and in the last game, the Pacers relied on Nembhard's fairy three-point shot to complete the quasi-stunner, and the team only won by 5 points. The maximum point difference between the three games is only 9 points, and it can be said that the strength of the two teams is between the two teams, and neither team has a significant advantage.

However, in the series G4, the Pacers played at full strength, and they beat the Knicks in the first quarter of the game, and the team completely entered the offensive rhythm in the first quarter, hitting three points from the outside in a row, and frequently scoring from the inside, and the team shot 14 of 23 in a single quarter to score 34 points. On the other hand, on the Knicks' side, the team played crazy iron, and also made 23 shots in a single quarter, but only hit 6 of them, and only scored 14 points on 1-of-8 shooting from the outside. After the first quarter of the game, the Pacers already held a 20-point lead, and the advantage was very obvious.

In the second quarter of the game, although Brunson found some form, scoring 9 points in a single quarter, his teammates did not play well, DiVincenzo was completely inaccurate in this game, he only scored 2 points on 1-of-5 shooting in a single quarter, and other players were not able to share his pressure. The Pacers continued to suppress their opponents on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, scoring 35 points in a single quarter, outscoring the Knicks by 8 points, and at the end of the half, the Pacers' advantage came to 28 points, and the Knicks had no backhand.

After halftime, the Knicks obviously did not find a solution, and the team made 13 shots from the outside, but only hit 1 ball, and the whole team did not find their own crosshairs. The Pacers did not relax, and the team continued to widen the gap in the first quarter, and they scored 32 points again in a single quarter, outscoring the Knicks by 10 points. After the first three quarters of the game, the Knicks were already 38 points behind the Pacers, and the game was completely out of suspense.

In the final quarter of the game, Thibodeau was not obsessed with continuing to let the starters play, he replaced the main team, and the team accepted the result of this game. In the end, the Pacers won by 32 points at home, and the team held on to two home courts, and after falling behind 0-2, the team won two games in a row, and the series will enter the battle of Tianwang Mountain. The Pacers responded in both games, and the battle of Kings Mountain will be played on the Knicks' home court, and it will be interesting to see if the team can respond similarly strongly.
