Knicks vs. Pacers MSG Game 5 ticket prices dropping: Where to buy

On Tuesday, May 27, Jalen Brunson and the New York Knicks lost Game 4 of the Eastern Conference finals to Tyrese Haliburton’s Indiana Pacers.

The rough 130-121 defeat leaves Tom Thibodeau’s team down 3-1 in this best-of-seven series.

“It’s disappointing when you don’t get a win,” star center Karl-Anthony Towns said in a postgame press conference. “We just didn’t do enough to get the job done tonight.”

From here on out, every matchup could be their last of the 2024-25 season.

In 2024, Haliburton and the Pacers came back from a 2-0 deficit to take down a hobbled Knicks club in seven games in the the Eastern Conference semifinals.

One series later, they were swept by the mighty Celtics in the Eastern Conference finals.

Soon after, the Knicks bolstered their roster and added Karl-Anthony Towns and Mikal Bridges. The pieces were finally in place for a deep playoff run.

Over the course of the 2024-25 regular season, the new and improved Knicks met their rivals from Indy three times and took two of those contests.

The Knicks finished the year with a 51-31 record, snagging the No. 3 seed, while the Pacers capped the season with 50 wins and the No. 4 draw.

Following impressive series wins — the Knicks beat the fiery Pistons and dramatically took down the defending champion Celtics in the second round — fans finally got the heated rematch they

had been dreaming of all year long.

Unfortunately, it’s been a bit of a mixed bag for New York thus far.

Games 1 and 2 at the Garden were both heartbreaking in different ways. In the first contest, they squandered a commanding fourth-quarter lead.

On the road, the Knicks came alive in game 3 and overcame a double-digit hole to steal a win on Indianapolis’ home court.

However, game 4 was a return to disappointing form. Thibodeau’s club did everything they could on Tuesday night but could not rally in the second half.
