NextImg:Heroes, zeros of Game 6: The Jalen Brunson stopper was difference

Heroes and zeros from the Knicks’ 125-108 Game 6 season-ending loss to the Pacers on Saturday night in Indianapolis:

What a series for Pascal Siakam.

With Tyrese Haliburton struggling, he took over as the Pacers’ No. 1 option on offense and erupted for 31 points.

He is a menace in transition.

Karl-Anthony Towns picked a brutal time to deliver one of his worst showings of the postseason.

He finished with 22 points, but only had 11 entering the fourth quarter.

Andrew Nembhard spent most of the game guarding Jalen Brunson rather than Aaron Nesmith.

And he limited Brunson to a series-low 19 points and forced him into five turnovers. He also had six steals.
