There has been some cursory talk of consistency and building from within from team leadership, and seeming mutual interest in bringing back sharpshooter Malik Beasley on a new multi-year deal this offseason. After that? Who knows.

Will fellow New York Knicks superfan Ben Stiller be there right beside him? Those are the key questions we must ask ourselves as we stare down a potential elimination game as the Knicks face the Indiana Pacers and a 3-1 deficit.

The New York Knicks similarly find themselves down 2-0 to the Indiana Pacers. Can they make a statement similar to what the Wolves accomplished? If they are going to do it, it is going to have to be on the road in the unfriendly confines of the Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.
