The Pacers had a chance to win in the closing seconds, but Danny Granger shot an airball on a 3-pointer from the right wing. If the Pacers had made the shot, it would have been the Knicks' third consecutive one-point loss.

Stephon Marbury scored 11 of his 22 points in the fourth quarter, David Lee had 20 points and 16 rebounds and Quentin Richardson scored 20 points for the Knicks.

Jermaine O'Neal led the Pacers with 25 points and 10 rebounds and Danny Granger added 19 points.

Mike Dunleavy, acquired by Indiana in the trade with Golden State earlier in the week, scored all of his 14 points in the third quarter in his first game as a Pacer. Troy Murphy, who also was a part of the trade, had 10 points and 11 rebounds.

Pacers had a FG% of .443 (39-88 )

Knicks had a FG% of .523 (34-65)

Wow thats a big difference in the amount of shots taken.

Thank god Granger missed that 3 pointer or we would have lost another heart breaker.

Well now we are more confident of ourselves going into our game @ Miami.
