The New York Knicks' season ends on a painful note, literally and figuratively.
Despite withstanding several medical calamities, the New York Knicks' championship chances officially wilted at Madison Square Garden on Sunday afternoon.
The Knicks' season is officially over, as the Indiana Pacers took advantage of their shorthanded nature and a sterling shooting performance from Tyrese Haliburton to earn a 130-109 victory in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. It took a literally historic effort to end the Knicks' season: Indiana shot 67.1 percent from the field as a team, the best success rate in a single playoff game in NBA history. That broke a 34-year old record set by the Boston Celtics ... who did so against the Knicks in 1990's opening round. Haliburton led the way with 26 points, hitting 10-of-16 from the floor. He was one of three Pacers to hit 20, joined by fellow starters Andrew Nembhard and Pascal Siakam .
Indiana's reward is a best-of-seven set with the top-seeded Boston Celtics. Game 1 of the series is set for Tuesday night at TD Garden .
