Basketball

Today's first game of the second round of the Eastern Conference playoffs, the Knicks played against the Celtics away! Can they regain their home advantage?

Knicks eliminated the Pistons with a big score of 4:2 in the first round, and they were the third place in the regular season and entered the playoffs. The Celtics eliminated the Magic 4:1 in the first round, and they made it to the playoffs in the second place in the regular season.

Although the two teams are ranked next to each other in the regular season, the Knicks won 10 games less than the Celtics, and the Celtics are still the defending champion and have a home advantage. It seems that the Knicks are at a disadvantage.

However, this year's Knicks' lineup is stronger than last year, because they got inside scoring master Towns from the Timberwolves, and maybe this will allow the Knicks to compete with the Celtics.

However, Brunson, the Knicks' backcourt core, is too short, which is a disadvantage in his height and an unchangeable fact. Compared to the Celtics' backcourt, Brunson is likely to be restricted on the offensive end.

However, if the Knicks can exert the power of the inside, they can still fight against the Celtics, it depends on whether Towns can get tough! He must be in a state of mind, especially to beat the Celtics's Pope.

In the first half, the two teams played hard to solve the problem in the first quarter! The Knicks are only one point behind. However, the situation in the second quarter suddenly changed! The Knicks' offense was silent, trailing the Celtics by 16 points.

The Celtics' offense was silent, and the Knicks took the opportunity to overtake by 3 points. In the end, the Knicks defeated the Celtics in overtime.

On the Celtic side, Tatum made a frantically tore! Only 23 points, 16 rebounds and 6 assists. Brown smacks the iron! Only 23 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists. White scored 19 points and 11 rebounds.
