The New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers are meeting once again in the playoffs, and this time there is an NBA finals berth on the line. The New York-Indiana postseason rivalry is writing its newest chapter in the 2025 Eastern Conference finals,

Indy 500 winner Alex Palou took in Game 3 of the NBA’s Eastern Conference Finals between the Indiana Pacers and the New York Knicks —capping off a big day in Indianapolis.

Less than three weeks later, the Pacers acquired fellow forward Pascal Siakam from Toronto for a return that included three first-round picks. Siakam gave the ascendant Pacers an established scorer with championship pedigree, having served as the second option on the 2019 Raptors team that won the NBA Finals.

A regular fan would get the lifetime ban, just because John Haliburton is the father of Tyrese Haliburton doesn't mean his ban should be lifted.

Siakam is a champion, helping the Toronto Raptors win their first and only NBA title in 2019, and he seems poised to achieve the same feat with the Pacers. Indiana was immediately dubbed the winner of the trade, but his sustained excellence just drives that point home.

In the East Finals, the Pacers have gone into The Garden and beat their longtime Playoff rival twice on their home floor. This time, Indy made a historic comeback in Game 1, overcoming a 15-point deficit in the final five minutes to win in overtime

When looking via Ticketmaster, the official ticketing partner of the NBA, tickets for Games 3 and 4 of the Eastern Conference run anywhere between $285.80 and $22,994.25, the latter for a courtside seat, of course.

Pascal Siakam scored 39 points to lead the Indiana Pacers to a 114-109 road win over the New York Knicks in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals on Friday evening.
