The Knicks took down the defending champion Boston Celtics in the last round, while the Pacers eliminated the team with the best record in the conference, setting up an exciting series between the two hottest teams in the East.

Jalen Brunson is on a mission to bring title relevancy to New York and will look to keep rolling after averaging over 26 points and seven assists against Boston. Brunson's best performance came in Game 4, when he posted 39 points and 12 assists. He and Karl-Anthony Towns have formed a dynamic offensive duo, and the other three starters for the Knicks are three of the top defenders left in the postseason in Mikal Bridges, OG Anunoby, and Josh Hart.

On the other side, Tyrese Haliburton will be tasked with keeping up on the road. Haliburton seems to take his game to another level when the pressure is on, becoming more of a scorer when he is needed the most. He scored 31 points on 10-15 from the field and 6-10 from three in Indiana's Game 5 closeout of the Cavaliers. His involvement in the series is crucial for the Pacers.

This is a great Eastern Conference Finals matchup that will not disappoint; make sure to tune in and catch all the action.
