Even though the New York Knicks’ thrilling series victory against the Boston Celtics has just come to an end, fans are already anticipating what this championship-chasing team will do next.
In Game 6, the Knicks dominated the Celtics 119-81 on Friday night, securing a 4-2 series triumph. Now, they have secured their place in the Eastern Conference Finals, where they will take on the Indiana Pacers and Tyrese Haliburton.
As these two teams begin a new chapter in their long-standing rivalry, all eyes will be on Madison Square Garden on Wednesday for Game 1.
Since the network’s NBA TV rights expire at the end of the season, NBA on TNT will cover that eagerly awaited series in what will be the network’s final series.
NBA shooting great Reggie Miller, who will be called up for the East Finals, has a fascinating tale that is worth following.
Miller, who played for the Pacers for his whole 18-year career in Indiana, is considered by many to be one of the team’s best players. It is only natural that his farewell TNT broadcast will be for a Knicks-Pacers series because, coincidentally, the Knicks were one of his fiercest opponents in the past.
Miller was thinking about this very thing on Friday night. On Instagram, the Hall of Famer posted about his “fitting way to go out.”
Miller let the post speak for itself without adding a caption. After all, Miller will be talking a lot during the show, and the post really does say it all.
In this forthcoming series, the Knicks will have home-court advantage and are the higher seed. Miller will be going back to a hostile, familiar setting in New York City for Game 1 on Wednesday, which will take place at MSG.
