Will the Knicks take care of business at home and close out the defending champs?
The Knicks have a golden opportunity to close out the defending champion Celtics tonight at Madison Square Garden and reach the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time since 2000. To avoid a Game Seven, the Knicks will need to shoot better, defend the perimeter, and stay disciplined—while feeding off what should be a raucous Garden crowd.
Game time is 8:00 p.m. EST on ESPN. This is your game thread. This is CelticsBlog. Please don’t post large photos, GIFs, or links to illegal streams in the thread. Enjoy yourselves. And go Knickerbockers!
