NBA Playoff East Final G1 tomorrow May 22 schedule: Knicks PK Pacers at home
12:23pm, 21 May 2025【Basketball】
At 08:00 on May 22, tomorrow's NBA playoffs usher in the first leg of the Eastern Conference Finals, and the Knicks will play at home! The Knicks eliminated the Pistons 4-2 in the first round and eliminated the defending champion Celtics 4-2; the Pacers eliminated the Bucks 4-1 in the first round and eliminated the Cavaliers 4-1! How many fans have predicted the Pacers and the Knicks? They all achieved the following grams, eliminating the East's No. 1 seed Cavaliers and No. 2 seed Celtics.
The Knicks eliminated the defending champion
Let's first talk about the Knicks' battle situation. They sent the defending champion home and advanced to the division and entered the finals again after 25 years. New York is a big city, and the Knicks’ ability to return to the division finals means a lot for the city. In the series with the Celtics, the Knicks were very tenacious. They lag behind more time, only 82 minutes ahead. The Celtics led by 195 minutes, but the team that advanced was the Knicks. In a basketball game, it is not about who has more time to lead, but who can win the final victory.
Bridges defense
Knicks completed a major reversal while G1 and G2 were 20 points behind, laying the foundation for promotion. As the game deepened, Tatum's Achilles tendon ruptured, and the Knicks' promotion was an expected result. Brunson, Towns, Hart, Anunobi and Bridges are the five starting points of the Knicks. They are all playing more than 35 minutes per game. Thibodeau is not a head coach who likes rotation. The starting players can overcome physical exhaustion and injuries, which is enough to prove that they are strong in physical fitness and strong in psychological quality.
Halliburton won the final victory against the Pacers, and the Knicks were not sure that they could win 100%. They still had to start with defense and fight hard every game seriously. Last year, the two teams met in the division semi-finals, and the result was that the Knicks lost 3-4 to the Pacers. Can the Knicks, who also has a home advantage this year, take revenge? The Pacers team battles
Pacers' team are not as popular as other teams, but they are very strong in this year's playoffs, losing only two games in two rounds, eliminating the Bucks and the Cavaliers 4-1. The Bucks have Antetokounmpo, and the Cavaliers have strong players such as Mitchell and Garland, but the Pacers insist on team fighting. No player in the team averages more than 20 points per game, but six players average double-digit points per game. The playoffs are not only a stage for competitions with super giants, but also a competition for lineup depth. Obviously, the Pacers did a good job of blooming more points. Tomorrow against the Knicks, I hope Halliburton, Siakam, Turner, Nembhard and Nesmith will continue to explode!
