The Eastern Conference finals between the New York Knicks and the the Indiana Pacers have been a wild, emotional ride filled with unexpected comebacks (or, one could argue, leads that have been completely blown in the 4th quarter). The series now stands at 3-1 in favor of the Pacers, and Game 5 will bring the teams back to Madison Square Garden (less distance for Knicks fans like Ben Stiller and Timothee Chalamet to travel) for what could be the final game of the series.
