The Knicks enjoyed a little bit of rest following Sunday’s early massacre and in their glorious return to New York City they battered a hapless Pacers team inside MSG.
Now in possession of a saucy 3-2 series lead, the Knicks only have to win one more game—whether that happens in Indianapolis or back in New York next Sunday—to make it all the way to the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time since 2000. What a time to be alive.
Here is what was said before and after yesterday’s dominant victory.
