Knicks' Game 5 Victory Over Pacers Keeps Championship Hopes Alive

Reese, Pam and Alex discuss the Knicks win over the Pacers in Game 5 last night.

In Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals last night, the New York Knicks secured a decisive 111-94 victory over the Indiana Pacers at Madison Square Garden. This win extended the series to 3-2, keeping the Knicks' championship aspirations alive.

Jalen Brunson led the Knicks with 32 points and four assists, shooting 12-of-18 from the field, including 3-of-6 from three-point range. His performance was instrumental in the Knicks' dominant start, as they never trailed in the game. Despite dealing with a bruised knee, Karl-Anthony Towns contributed 24 points and 13 rebounds in 36 minutes of play. His presence in the paint and ability to stretch the floor were crucial for the Knicks, especially in maintaining their lead throughout the game.

The Knicks will look to even the series in Game 6, scheduled for Saturday, May 31, in Indiana. A victory would force a decisive Game 7, while a loss would conclude their playoff run. What can we take away from this Knicks win? Does it mean anything? What do we think about Tyrese Haliburton's performance? Will the Knicks win Game 6 and force a Game 7?
