Region 12 Play in Game
1995 NEW YORK KNICKS AT 1994 INDIANA PACERS
Fun rubber match game here - the '94 Pacers lost in the playoffs to the Knicks - the '95 Knicks lost in the playoffs to the Pacers. They meet here; winner moves into the Region 12 Bracket.
Knicks: 55-27, 2nd Atlantic Div
d. Cavs East First Round, 3-1
lost Pacers East Semis, 4-3
Coach: Pat Riley
Starters:
C P.Ewing (32) 23.9 PPG 9.6 Win Shares (2nd Blocks/game)
F C.Oakley (31) 10.1 4.5
F A.Mason (28) 9.9 8.6
G G.Anthony (27) 6.1 2.9
G H.Davis (24) 10 4.8 (4th in 3%)
Reserve Rotation:
G D.Harper (33) 11.5 6.4
G J.Starks (29) 15.3 6.2 (1st in 3s)
F C.Smith (29) 12.7 4.8
F A.Bonner (26) 3.8 1.8
C H.Williams (36) 3.3 .6
Ewing's 32, lot of mileage on that body, but he's the best player on the squad, PER above 20. There's a guard swap here, Anthony/Davis starting and Harper/Starks coming off the bench, but really they will be almost splitting minutes. Smith also will play a lot.
Pacers: 47-35, 3rd in Central Div
d. Magic East First Round 3-0
d. Hawks East Semis 4-2
lost Knicks East Finals, 4-3
Coach: Larry Brown
Starters:

F A.Davis (25) 7.7 5
F D.Davis (24) 11.7 7
G H.Workman (28) 7.7 2.8
G R.Miller (28) 19.9 11.7 (1st True Shooting)
Reserve Rotation:
G B.Scott (32) 10.4 3.1
F K.Williams (24) 6.3 2.4
F S.Mitchell (30) 4.8 2.2
F D.McKey (27) 12 5
G P.Richardson (27) 10 1.4
Reggie's the leader, like Ewing, PER over 20; both Davis's start with McKey moving to the bench; there's not a great answer at point guard. The Davis's against Oak and Mason. Let's get ready to rumble.
