The Knicks kept the game close until the third quarter, when the Pacers' pressure on both ends began to swing the game. Indiana forced 18 New York turnovers, resulting in 34 points, and scored 25 points in transition. Tyrese Haliburton was quiet until the fourth quarter but scored 11 points late, finishing with 21 points and 14 assists. Indiana's role players stepped up as well. Thomas Bryant scored 11 points on 3-5 shooting, including 2-2 from 3, in 12 minutes while Obi Toppin scored 18 points off the bench, shooting 7-11 from the field.

Gainbridge Fieldhouse is rocking. The Indiana Pacers are on the verge of the NBA Finals. Andrew Nembhard putting up an all-time playoff line, especially given the assignment on Jalen Brunson: 14 points, 8 assists, ZERO turnovers, six steals, and has made 6-of-12 field goals and 2-of-5 3s. He played (Nemb)hard until the jumper came around. And play he did! With 4:20 left to play, Indiana has outscored the Knicks by 24 points in Nembhard's 34 minutes. Trevor Ruszkowski / Imagn Night, night. Knicks gave up on defense once Pascal Siakam got the offensive rebound, easy swing-swing for the dagger Andrew Nembhard 3. Jalen Brunson has only played 32 minutes and yet somehow looks totally gassed. Gregory Shamus / Getty Images Microcosm of the series right there. Pascal Siakam outhustles the tired Knicks for a loose ball, and New York gives up on the play while allowing Andrew Nembhard to stand alone all day for a wide-open 3. Getty Images Q4 4:20 - Pacers 113, Knicks 94 Tyrese Haliburton is cooking the Knicks with his floater. It's a 16-point Pacers lead — and then Andrew Nembhard hits a 3! That may as well have been the dagger. Barring a Knicks miracle that tops what Indiana did to them in Game 1, the Pacers are heading to the NBA Finals. Getty Images And now Mitchell Robinson comes in for Karl-Anthony Towns. I have a feeling we just saw Towns' last minutes of this season. Getty Images TNT keeps criticizing Karl-Anthony Towns for being too far back on the pick-and-roll but he'd be getting fried no matter what coverage he was in. Trevor Ruszkowski / Imagn Tyrese Haliburton is eating up Karl-Anthony Towns pick-and-roll coverage and taking the Knicks to float school. Karl-Anthony Towns is not moving well. He barely made it back down the floor on Miles McBride's layup, then didn't get back when Obi Toppin surged to the hole on the ensuing fast break. Nine steals from the Pacers backcourt. Andrew Nembhard can't find his jumper but he's painting his Mona Lisa defensively. Ron Hoskins / NBAE via Getty Images Q4 6:38 - Pacers 104, Knicks 88 The Knicks are not winning these crucial minutes. Instead, Andrew Nembhard is absolutely locking up Jalen Brunson. The Pacers have their biggest lead of the game and are on the verge of going to the NBA Finals! Big stretch coming up for Indiana with Pascal Siakam going to the bench and Aaron Nesmith picking up his fifth foul. This is when the Knicks need to strike. Aaron Nesmith just came up limping after fouling Karl-Anthony Towns. He subbed out and was rubbing his left knee on the bench.

Microsoft's Bad News—500 Million Windows Users Must Now Decide
Surprising bad news suddenly hits Microsoft. A new warning has been issued for Windows users, whose PCs have been described as 'magnets for security threats,' just as new data gives Microsoft a surprising bad news story ahead of the critical next few months. You can expect many more such warnings as 500-million Windows users face an increasingly urgent decision. The latest advice comes courtesy of PC maker Asus, pointing out that 'if you're still using Windows 10 or, dare we say it, something even older — your computer's days of regular updates and support are numbered.' As for upgrades, 'what makes Windows 11 different?," Asus says. "one word: Copilot," as it pushes the latest range of AI PCs. Clearly, you don't need to decide on a premium Copilot PC to benefit from Windows 11's future-proofing, ensuring your PC receives critical security updates after Windows 10's demise in October. AI PCs remain a niche, despite projections they will eventually dominate new PC sales. Right now, there's a more fundamental decision to make. Windows 10 versus Windows 11 globally. The latest Windows market data presents a painfully bleak picture with just over five months to run until free Windows 10 security updates end for all users. Paid extensions are available, but they're expensive for enterprises and restricted to just 12-months for home users who also must pay. Microsoft is pushing free upgrades not paid extensions. A month ago, it seemed Windows 11 had turned the tide against Windows 10. The newer OS already outanks its older sibling in the U.S. but not globally. Come the end of April, though, Windows 11 was within 10% of Windows 11 for the first time. 'Just over half (53%) of all users are still on Windows 10, but that's inching down month by month.' Not any more, it seems. While more directional than exact, Statcounter's data at the end of May shows a slight month-over-month increase for Windows 10, while Windows 11 dips. This after four months of steady progress the other way. Windows 10 is holding stubbornly above 50% while Windows 11 remains 10% behind. Windows 10 versus Windows 11 in U.S. This means there are around 750 million users are yet to upgrade to Windows 11, of which at least 240 million don't have an eligible PC. That still leaves around 500 million users who can take up Microsoft's offer for a free Windows 11 upgrade but have not. Even in the U.S., where Windows 11 has overtaken Windows 10, May's data suggests Windows 10 has grown its share from 41% in April to more than 43%, while Windows 11 drops a more worrying 3.5%, from 56.5% down to below 53%. All this makes June's data critical. Come the end of this month, there will be just three months until Windows 10 is shuttered. If Microsoft is to avoid a cybersecurity nightmare hitting mid-October, something need to change. For all those Windows 10 users with PCs eligible for a free upgrade, do not run out of time.

Massachusetts Governor demands answers after ICE arrests Milford High School student
Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey took to social media Sunday evening to demand answers after ICE agents arrested a high school student heading to volleyball practice over the weekend. The student, 18-year-old Marcelo Gomes, is a junior at Milford High School in Milford, Massachusetts. In her post, Healey says she is "disturbed and outraged" and that she wants answers immediately explaining why the student was taken into immigration enforcement's custody. "I'm demanding that ICE provide immediate information about why he was arrested, where he is and how his due process is being protected," she s. In the post she blames the Trump admin for what she describes as an attempt to create fear. "The Trump Administration continues to create fear in our communities, and it's making us all less safe," her post states. In her statement, Healey claims that the student was detained on Saturday without any warning or subsequent explanation provided to state officials. "Yet again, local officials and law enforcement have been left in the dark with no heads up and no answers to their questions," she said. The community gathered to protest outside of Milford on Sunday. Hundreds demanded Gomes be set free and that ICE stop harassing members of their community. U.S. Rep. Jake Auchincloss, a Democrat who represents Milford in Congress, attended the protest and made note on X that Gomes was "enrolled in honors classes, a coaching assistant for girls volleyball [and] player for boys volleyball, and a member of the school band." "This administration has its public safety priorities backwards. It pardons cop-beaters from Jan. 6 but detains high-school volleyball players. It makes gun-purchaser background checks harder while pushing for tax breaks to buy silencers for pistols. This reckless behavior does not make the residents of Milford safer, and I stand with the community in support of law [and] order," he wrote. Milford School District Superintendent Kevin McIntyre says that Gomes' detention is one of many apprehensions to take place in the southern Massachusetts community. McIntyre says the district cannot take any role in immigration enforcement, but they will "support all of our students and families, including those who are immigrants to the United States." "They are members of the community, students in our classrooms, athletes that compete representing Milford, musicians, artists, friends, and neighbors. We will do everything in our power to support our students and families during these difficult times," he said in his statement. Sunday morning was Milford High School's graduation and Healey says a day of celebration has now been tarnished. "My heart goes out to the Milford community on what was supposed to be a celebratory graduation day," she said.
