The New York Knicks host the Indiana Pacers for the highly anticipated Game 7 of the Eastern Conference semifinals on Sunday at Madison Square Garden. The tipoff is set at 3:30 p.m. ET.
Indiana has consistently thrived on their home court this postseason, and Friday's game six was no exception. The Pacers surged ahead in the second quarter and maintained their lead throughout the game.
However, their road performance tells a different story, with a 1-5 record away from home, including a 0-3 mark at MSG in this series alone.

In these playoffs, their scoring drops to 106.7 points per game on the road. As they prepare for Sunday's game, the Pacers' goal will be to replicate their home success on the road.
Friday's game showed excellent ball control, with fewer than 10 turnovers and effective shooting at 53.8% from the field. Furthermore, they grabbed 14 offensive rebounds.
The performance of Jalen Brunson will be crucial for success. Additionally, Donte DiVincenzo's shooting will also play a significant role, especially considering his shooting percentage dropped to 36.8% in Indiana this series compared to 47.1% at home. If New York aims for another 120+-point game, these two players hold the key to achieving that objective.
