Knicks vs. Pacers Game 4 Prediction: Eastern Conference Finals

The New York Knicks will aim to even the series back up in Game 4 against the Indiana Pacers at 8 p.m. ET on Tuesday at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse on TNT.

New York erased a 20-point deficit to win Game 3 by a final score of 106-100. It marked the team’s third 20-point comeback this postseason. Karl-Anthony Towns finished with 24 points and 15 rebounds.

Knicks vs. Pacers Game 4 Prediction

Based on the updated NBA betting lines, I’m backing Indiana’s moneyline (-135) as my Game 4 prediction for the Knicks vs. Pacers matchup in the Eastern Conference finals.

New York made adjustments in Game 3, including a lineup change. However, the Pacers were still in control when they led by 20. They were up by 16 midway through the third quarter and down 10 entering the final period.

KAT’s nuclear explosion in the fourth quarter saved the Knicks. He scored 20 points in the final frame, which was necessary as Jalen Brunson dealt with foul trouble for much of the night.

Nothing about this series has been normal, but I have a difficult time believing that Indiana won’t win a home game before the series heads back to New York.

The Pacers are 33-13 at home this year. Indiana posted a +5 net rating at Gainbridge Fieldhouse during the regular season, a mark that jumps up to +7.4 after Jan. 1.

I’m comfortable backing the Pacers to take care of business in Tuesday’s Game 4.
