The New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers continue their Eastern Conference Finals series in the 2025 NBA Playoffs tonight. Indiana leads 3-2 and will look to close out on their home court after losing Game 5 in New York. The Knicks will look for a desperate win to push the series to a decisive Game 7 back in Madison Square Garden. The Oklahoma City Thunder, representing the NBA’s Western Conference, will await the eventual winner in the 2025 NBA Finals.
Tonight’s game will begin at 5:00 PM, Pacific time and will be televised on TNT.
This could also be the finale for Inside the NBA, the venerable TNT talking heads show that has become a casualty of the league’s new television rights deal taking effect next season. The show will transfer in some form to ESPN, but it remains to be seen how faithful the representation will be to the original.
Will the Knicks prevail tonight or will the Pacers take it home? Do you have a preference? And how much does the Inside the NBA thing affect you? Talk about these things and more in our Game Day Thread. Rules are relaxed for off-season threads but please respect the site’s no-profanity rule.
Enjoy the game and go...whomever!
