The New York Knicks find themselves in a spot nobody could've predicted heading into Game 3 against the Indiana Pacers: down 0-2 after playing two straight games at home. After beating the defending champions Boston Celtics, the Knicks have looked lost playing a Pacers team that has more depth than them.
