Knicks Aim for Series Extension Against Pacers in Game 6

As the New York Knicks prepare to face the Indiana Pacers in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals, the atmosphere is charged with anticipation. The game is set to take place at Gainbridge Fieldhouse at 8 p.m. ET. In a lighthearted moment shared on social media platform X, actor Ben Stiller made a humorous remark about Tyrese Haliburton arriving for the game with a duffel bag, suggesting he was preparing for his return flight to New York.
Stiller has been a prominent presence at Madison Square Garden throughout the Eastern Conference Finals. His enthusiasm was palpable as he celebrated Jalen Brunson's impressive performance, where Brunson scored 32 points in Game 5 to secure a 111-94 victory, extending the series to a sixth game. Following this win, Stiller was seen declaring, 'Knicks in seven' while exiting the arena, indicating his belief in the team's potential to navigate this challenging series.
Looking ahead to Game 6, the Knicks will depend on another standout performance from both Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns, who contributed significantly with 24 points and 13 rebounds in the previous game. Historically, only 13 NBA teams have managed to overcome a 3-1 series deficit in the playoffs, and the Pacers have yet to experience back-to-back losses this postseason. However, the Knicks' recent performance in defense showed promise, as they became the first team this playoff session to limit the Pacers to under 100 points. Haliburton was notably held to just eight points on 2-for-7 shooting in that contest. Now, the Knicks will aim to carry this momentum into their upcoming road game to extend their playoff journey.
