Despite the loss at Game 2, the New York Knicks presented a head-on clash; Commentator Kevin Harlan draws attention with his hilarious comment on Jalen Brunson The Eastern Conference finals kicked off on May 21, 2025, between the New York Knicks and the Indiana Pacers. While Game 1 was dominated by the Indiana Pacers with a final score of 138-135 over the Knicks, Game 2 went in favor of the Pacers as well, with a final score of 114-109. With a difference of just 3 points in the previous game, today’s match was pretty much a neck-to-neck competition between the teams, with a difference of just 5 points.

Despite the loss, Knicks’ Jalen Brunson seemed to be in a rush as he tries to gather and put every score in the pockets of his team. It was during this process that there was a brief, hilarious moment that erupted across the stadium with the play-by-play commentator Kevin Harlan passing off a rather quirky comment during the gameplay. Knick’s Brunson was in a completely different competitive zone when the player rushed and missed the ball, diving right into the commentator’s table. The player was quick in rearranging some of the stuff and getting back into the game, but it was Kevin Harlan, whose commentary left everyone baffled. His exact words were, “I am wet, I am dirty. Stuff all over the place.”

The commentator in his legendary play-by-play voice yelled these words, followed by fellow commentator Reggie Miller checking up on his friend if everything was okay. The comment left everyone in a somewhat lightened mood owing to the intense game that was going on between the Knicks and the Pacers.
