The Knicks and Pacers got through the first round unscathed, as both teams took care of business in the Eastern Conference quarterfinal.
For the Knicks, the Eastern Conference's No. 2 seed, they outlasted the 76ers in six games, bouncing back from a Game 5 overtime loss to steal Game 6 in Philadelphia, 118-115, as the game had an electrifying final five minutes. The Knicks relied upon Jalen Brunson's 41 points and the near-perfect free-throw team numbers, finishing 22-of-23 and a stellar 42.5 percent from the 3-point line.
Meanwhile, in six games, the No. 6 seed Pacers knocked out the No. 3 seed Bucks. The Bucks were without several key pieces, including Giannis Antetokounmpo, who had a calf strain that impacted his entire playoff run, albeit briefly. This allowed the Pacers to dominate with the three-headed monster of Pascal Siakam, Tyreese Haliburton and Myles Turner, who each played a crucial role and finished in double figures in a 120-98 win at home to seal the deal.
The series is a throwback to the mid-90s, which featured several legendary games and talent on both sides, including Reggie Miller and John Starks, to name a few.
