Turning the ball over is something that can’t be done against any playoff team, but against a team that thrives in transition like the Indiana Pacers is something that the New York Knicks can’t do if they want to bring the series back.

The Knicks’ turnovers were the biggest determinants of their 130-121 Game 4 loss to the Pacers Tuesday night at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

The Knicks turned the ball over a total of 17 times, which is the same number of assists they had in their Game 4 loss. Knicks guard Josh Hart was most at fault for the turnovers on the team, as he led the team with five turnovers, with four of them coming in the first half.

The Pacers capitalized on Hart’s turnovers as they got out in transition and turned those turnovers into eight points on the other end.

“It’s tough to win against a team like that who turns those turnovers into points,” Hart said postgame. “I had like four or five. Just stupid turnovers that you can’t have. That leads to easy baskets, that leads to momentum. We gotta be more careful with the ball, starting with myself.”

The Pacers like to play fast and force opponents into uncharacteristic mistakes. The Pacers had a whopping 22-9 advantage in fast-break points. They also converted the Knicks’ 17 turnovers into 20 points. Hart fouled out of the game as well, which the Pacers scored nine points either as a result of or directly after those fouls.

The Pacers only committed 11 turnovers, which led to the Knicks scoring nine points off them. Star point guard Tyrese Haliburton had no turnovers and produced a 30-point, 15-assist and 12-rebound triple-double.

“I think it was probably a compilation of things,” coach Tom Thibodeau said postgame. “You turn it over against them, particularly the live-ball turnovers, you’re fueling their transition game.”

Josh Hart breaks Summer League record with Lakers

Josh Hart scored 37 points in the Los Angeles Lakers‘ 112-109 Summer League semifinals victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday night, and broke a franchise record while doing so.

Lakers’ Josh Hart Breaks Franchise Record In Summer League

Hart surpassed Lonzo Ball’s (36) record for most points scored by a Laker during the Summer League. With the double-overtime win, the Lakers have reached the Las Vegas Summer League championship game two years in a row now. Hart’s nine rebounds also matched a game-high, and even though his performance amazed, the 23-year-old guard — a first-round pick out of Villanova in 2017 — said he was disappointed in having missed a pair of key free throws in overtime.

According to several reports, Lakers president of basketball operations Magic Johnson, head coach Luke Walton and general manager Rob Pelinka have all been praising Hart recently. Rumors have been swirling over the guard potentially winning the NBA Summer League MVP award.

The Lakers will play the Portland Trail Blazers in Tuesday night’s title game.

Hart was one of several people who decried recent acts of vandalism against a new mural of LeBron James in Los Angeles.
