Spero Dedes

Thanks to all the Knick fans who listened to & watched us this season. Your support means everything.

Roy Hibbert with a HUGE block on Carmelo Anthony. Pacers block Knicks http://t.co/e6enb38mVd

Paul Flannery

Radical question for the Grizz: Would it make sense to have Tony Allen come off the bench specifically for Ginobli?

Dan Duggan

For a league, and commissioner, so concerned with perception it's pretty bad they can't shake the perception that they influence outcomes.

Dan Duggan

First, I think NBA conspiracy theories are (mostly) ridiculous. Second, it's a huge problem for the league that I'm in the minority.

Steve Kyler

A lot of people piling on Sam Presti for trading James Harden... Harden wasn't traded over money... he was traded over the role he wanted

Josh Newman

The day the news broke that Ledo declared, the word was there was indeed a first-round promise. That was taken with a large grain of salt.

Josh Newman

Zach Lowe

Twenty-two of IND's 36 offensive boards vs MIA came in one of the 3 games b/w them. Still: Heat have to gang rebound in this series.

Knicks got outrebounded by 52 in this series if my math is right. A difference of almost nine rebounds per game.

Tim Bontemps

And he had a pretty rough couple years before this one, too. Pacers were patient and have been rewarded handsomely.

Also, please don't use the "why didn't the Knicks draft Stephenson" thing. Him being in a place like Indiana allowed this to happen.

I should mention when I talked to Lance Stephenson, he credited his development this season to Brian Shaw. Nets expected to interview him.

Nate Taylor

Kenyon Martin: "They got in the penalty early in most of the games. I don’t think we adjusted well to the way things were being called.”

Nate Taylor

Iman Shumpert on the Pacers: “You never want anybody to be more aggressive than you, but they were the whole series.”

Tim Bontemps

And, finally, I wonder if Chris Copeland is this year's Gerald Green, a guy who signs a mini-MLE deal this summer and is quickly overpaid.

Nate Taylor

Iman Shumpert on this season: “We failed. We wanted to put ourselves in the finals & then roll the dice. We didn’t do that.”

Tim Bontemps

Sixth, I have no idea what J.R. Smith is going to get this summer. Will be awfully curious. But he did himself no favors with these playoffs

Tim Bontemps

Fifth, I really hope Tyson Chandler was playing through injuries, because he was dreadful in this series. If not, huge issue for Knicks.

Nate Taylor

JR Smith: "I love it here. I love my teammates. I love my coaches."

Nate Taylor

JR Smith: “I want to retire a Knick. I don’t want to go anywhere else."

2nd, bizarre decisions from Woodson. Should've played Copeland more, and should've had JR sitting. He was horrible, especially defensively.

By the way, despite the venom directed at J.R. - a change of roster in dramatic way going to be very tough with cap woes.

John Schuhmann

Of course, Andre Miller is neither fast nor young & gets DEN plenty of FBP.

Marc Berman

The more Carmelo talked, the more he kept up the optimism. At one point, he called it "a helluva season.'' Maybe a helluva regular season.

Tim Bontemps

That said, couple of points about the game. First, Knicks fans complaining about refs are silly. The Knicks shot jumpers all game long.

John Schuhmann

Smitty & B.Scott made good point about NYK on NBA TV. PGs are slow &/or old. Don't get easy points in transition. See previous tweet re: FBP

J.R. Smith said he wants to retire as a Knick. Was also very critical of himself: "I got back-doored twice on two easy buckets." #Knicks

Chris Herring

Now that team has suffered real defeat, will be interesting to see how, if at all, the dynamic changes next yr

Tommy Dee

Lance Stephenson outplayed JR Smith by a WIDE margin all series long. Think about that. #knicks

Steve Popper

For those wondering if J.R. will come cheap - he loves NY. His agent does, too, but his job is not to leave money on the table.

Sean Cunningham

41.7 secs left in 3rd period, #LAKings issued a hooking penalty. Sharks power play to close out period. 0-1 in this period, 1 for 3 overall

Chris Herring

Amar'e's been lauded as a team-1st guy, & rightfully so. But his answers abt coming off bench always end w "as long as we're winning..."

Tommy Dee

Good to know Woody is tipping his cap considering Vogel had his team, to a man, more prepared all series long. #knicks

Melo is only player to score 39 points (while shooting above 50%) and grab 7 rebounds in a game this postseason.

Brian Mahoney

And announce decision at a nightclub? RT ‏@Frank Isola J.R. Smith, who will become a free agent, says he wants to retire as a Knick.

Dan Woike

"Talk about...." is better than "Thoughts on...."

Steve Popper

J.R. Smith and Kenyon Martin both said they want to return to New York - J.R. very emphatically.

Chris Mannix

Schaefer: "Al Haymon is a fan of the sport. He wants to see the best fight the best." Richard made a funny.

Alex Kennedy

Paul George earlier this year: "I think if you ask anyone in here how bad we want that rematch [against Miami], we’d all be up for it.”

Frank Isola

Jason Kidd, who did not play in the second half for the second straight game, did not speak with reporters.

Peter Vecsey

So, in the end, Woodson did throw Kidd to the curb....but even that didn't help/work...

Alex Kennedy

Paul George wanted a rematch vs. Heat. He watched film of last year's series repeatedly last summer. He was disappointed he didn't do more.

Jeff Caplan

Sounds like an awakening of a season for Pacers. Now hope they don't get steamrolled after this group-presser-from-the-heart. #unity

Chris Mannix

Schaefer says he has September 7th at the Verizon Center in DC targeted for #GarciaMatthysse.

John Schuhmann

Man, the Pacers committed just one turnover in the 2nd half. Maybe the most amazing thing about that game.

Lang Greene

After the Pacers knocked off the Atlanta Hawks, Donnie Walsh said this team was one his all-time favorites to be a part of ...

Kristina Leahy

Anyone see Victoria Beckham tear up in Davids last game? If u know anything abt Posh Spice, it's that it takes a lot for her to show emotion

Al Iannazzone

JR Smith, who likely will opt out and become a free agent, said"I want to retire a Knick."

Frank Isola

J.R. Smith, who will become a free agent, says he wants to retire as a Knick.

Peter Vecsey

Hibbert is nailing Jim O'Brien without naming him, talking how Vogel turned team around when he took over. O'Brien had Hibbert ready 2 quit

Frank Isola

Amar'e says he wants to make it work with Carmelo. Asked if he wants to stay in New York, he said "without a doubt."

Surya Fernandez

I just don't see how the Pacers will be able to keep up with the Heat offensively in crunch time this series. Not against that defense.

Mark Followill

Halftime in Seattle, goals by forwards Eddie Johnson (16') & Lamar Neagle (31') have Sounders FC leading FC Dallas 2-0.

Ethan J. Skolnick

After watching this, I really think that James, Wade and Bosh need to invite Chalmers to the podium with them.

Jeff Caplan

Roy Hibbert at the podium: Throw it down, big fella!

Alex Kennedy

Indiana's starters all had double figures. All five players were at the podium for postgame press conference. They're sharing the two mics.

Jeff Wade

Guys, talk about this basketball game and I'll record it

Scott Agness

David West: "This is the most together group I've ever been a part of."

Chris Herring

Stoudemire, on second-half benching: "It's tough. It's tough. It's never easy. But its coach's decision."

Peter Vecsey

Brian Shaw's head coaching price just doubled..

David Brickley

George Hill then followed by saying "Follow me on Twitter @George Hill". Who are these dudes rappers? About to get swept with that garbage

Marcus Thompson

Warriors chose Ekpe Udoh over Paul George ... Too soon?

David Brickley

Roy Hibbert opened up the press conference with "I just want to let you all know we turnt up hashtag #TurntUp". Yikes!

Mark Heisler

Justice of a sort: #Pacers aren't as menacing as Pat Riley #Knicks--but do same thing, playing physically all game so refs get used to it

Royce Young

This Pacers press conference with all five guys is pretty incredible.

Rick Bonnell

A while back I said if Charlotte NBA team was called Cantaloupes and won 50 games, they'd be loved. No one has disagreed. That's telling.

Peter Vecsey

Hibbert must've gone to private school before attending Georgetown.

Tommy Beer

3 players have finished w/ 25 pts (while shooting over 69%) & 10 rebs in a win this postseason: LeBron, Tim Duncan, & now - Lance Stephenson

Ethan J. Skolnick

Seeing Lance Stephenson up there... at last, the Juwan Howard re-signing makes sense.

Al Iannazzone

Carmelo Anthony is sitting at his.locker, looking very upset, frustrated, surprised and almost numb.

Chuck Swirsky

Pacers -Heat. Who do you have ?

Al Iannazzone

Carmelo Anthony is sitting at his locker, looking like a very frustrated, upset, stunned and almost numb.

Luke Winn

Ethan J. Skolnick

All five Pacers at the podium. This is different. Very collegiate.

Chris Herring

Melo sat at his locker for quite a while with a blank stare in his eye. Team clearly expected to win this series.

Sean Highkin

This press conference is already GOAT.

Frank Isola

Pablo Prigioni felt the Lance Stephenson steal that led to a three point play changed the game. "It was big," he said.

Sean Highkin

Frank Vogel is a phenomenal coach but he still looks and sounds like Alan the mean kid from Freaks and Geeks.

Chris Herring

Prigioni says its too early to analyze his own situation in terms of whether he wants to play in the league next year. Understandable.

Scott Agness

Hill, who found out he was cleared around 1 PM, "This was a game I couldn't miss, and I couldn't wait to get out there with my teammates."

Ric Bucher

Some Knicks' fans blaming FT disparity. Newsflash: jump-shooting teams don't go to the line. Warriors had same issue, fans had same beef.

Scott Agness

All five starters at the podium. instagram.com/p/ZemEYPF5bp/

Tommy Beer

Shocking how baldy Chandler played in this series. Completely dominated by Hibbert all series. Knicks simply couldn't overcome that mismatch

Chris Tomasson

Heat to face Pacers in East finals. Chris Bosh will be a key. Story at foxsportsflorida.com/nba/miami-heat…

Royce Webb

Danny Granger is the Rudy Gay of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Brett Pollakoff

Pacers sending all 5 starters to the podium.

Chris Herring

Tyson: "They were the better team... Ran Into a poised Indiana team that stuck together and ran their [offensive] stuff."

Mark Heisler

Good news for #Knicks. One good wing player away from building on turnaround season in which they started JKidd, Ronnie Brewer, Prigioni.

Frank Isola

As you might imagine, the players are distraught. Carmelo looks exhausted and defeated.

Chris Tomasson

Only one of the NBA's 11 biggest payrolls (Miami, 4th) is in the NBA Final Four. Spurs are 12, Pacers are 22nd and Grizzlies 25th in payroll

Lang Greene

"@nwilborn19: Can Stephen A try to pretend like he's an actual reporter covering a sporting event & not an angry fan." --- man, listen

Scott Agness

Vogel: "This is not about getting back at Miami. When you make it to the final four, it's about winning a championship."
