Magic Johnson knows which players are responsible for losing Game 6 by the New York Knicks to the Indiana Pacers.
The New York Knicks were defeated by the Indiana Pacers in a shattering game six results. The Knicks’ season was over with his ejection in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Perhaps there was no performance worse than Josh Hart, who scored just four points on a terrible outing. Jalen Brunson scored 19 points and Karl-Anthony Towns dropped 22 points, but that wasn’t enough.
Branson supported doing well this team despite exclusion. However, there are many questions being asked.
Branson protected Tom Thibodeau from criticism, but he couldn’t escape the criticism of the legendary NBA Magic Johnson for his path.

Magic Johnson took the X to respond to the Indiana Pacers who defeated the New York Knicks in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals.
However, he took the time to point out that Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns were the biggest perpetrators of Knicks’ disappointing performance.
“The New York Knicks lost Game 6 because the towns of their two superstars, Jalen Branson and Karl Anthony, didn’t play well. They also didn’t control the pace of the game.”
Obviously, Johnson appreciates both Branson and the town. Similarly, he holds them accountable when they play poorly.

The New York Knicks put together the roster and competed for the championship. Despite their regular season performance, the Knicks have put together a strong playoff run.
However, this elimination in the final of the Eastern Conference reminds the Knicks that they still need to make some upgrades to compete at a high level.
What makes this challenging is that the Knicks don’t have strong assets. Leon Rose has to make some very difficult decisions on the current roster.
If the Knicks can find a better player to make another title challenge come true, that would be a considerable achievement from Rose.
