If you find yourself in a hole, you should probably stop digging. The New York Knicks are in the Eastern Conference finals for the first time since 2000. They won 51 games this season — the most any Knicks team has won since 2011-12.

Pascal Siakam led the way for Indiana, putting together a 39-point performance on 15-for-23 from the floor and 3-for-5 from the three-point line. Myles Turner chipped in with 16 points, while Tyrese Haliburton scored 14 points to go along with 11 assists, eight rebounds, and two steals.

A miraculous Game 1 comeback by the Indiana Pacers (or choke job by the New York Knicks) put the higher seed on notice. After Friday's 114-109 loss in Game 2, the Knicks are officially on the ropes and headed on the road.
