Waiting for 25 years, 4-2: They return to the Eastern Conference Finals, too unexpected: 1st + 2nd East teamed out

On May 17, in the G6 of the NBA playoff Eastern Conference semi-finals, the Knicks easily defeated the Celtics 119-81 at home, with a total score of 4-2 and returning to the Eastern Conference Finals after 25 years. In the whole game, the Knicks led by up to 41 points. In this round of series, I originally thought there was no big suspense. The Celtics are the second and defending champion in the Eastern Conference, and the team with double-Tanhua is very strong. Although the Knicks rank third in the Eastern Conference, they are quite different from the Celtics, and there is still a gap in their strength.

However, after the first four games, the Knicks won the match point 3-1 (especially in the first two games, the Knicks made a 20-point reversal in the away game in a row, which is incredible. In the last stage of the fourth game, Tatum, the core of the Celtics, left the court again due to injury, and then the season was reimbursed). In the last game, the Celtics won a big victory in the absence of Tatum and saved a match point, but they are still passive, and the Knicks still have the initiative to advance.

G6 came to the home court, and the Knicks played very strongly. After halftime, they led by as many as 27 points, almost killing the suspense of the game early! After the change of sides, the Knicks once led by 41 points in the third quarter. The game was lost early. In the fourth quarter, the Celtics gave up the game early and joined the rotation lineup. The Knicks easily won.

At this point, the Cavaliers in the East and the Celtics in the second place were all eliminated (previously, the Pacers eliminated the Cavaliers in the East with a total score of 4-1). This result was really surprising!
