Knicks Set to Challenge Celtics' Fortress at TD Garden

Knicks' Recent Performance

The New York Knicks have been a formidable force in the playoffs, showcasing their resilience and strategic prowess. In their recent game against the Detroit Pistons on May 1, the Knicks emerged victorious with a score of 116-113. Their offensive strategy was evident as they capitalized on fast breaks, converting 75 percent of their attempts into points. The team's ability to dominate in the paint was crucial, scoring 48 points from that area alone.

However, not all games have been smooth sailing for the Knicks. On April 29 against Detroit again, they faced a narrow defeat with a scoreline of 103-106. Despite this setback, their defensive efforts were commendable with an impressive block count of 10 and maintaining close competition throughout.

Celtics' Stronghold

The Boston Celtics are no strangers to high-stakes games and will be hosting the upcoming clash at TD Garden on May 14 at 1:00 PM EDT. The C's have demonstrated consistent performance throughout the season and playoffs alike. In their last encounter with New York on May 5, they narrowly lost by just three points in overtime despite having led for over half an hour during regulation time.

For Boston's Green Machine to maintain dominance over New York's relentless offense requires tightening up defensive strategies—especially considering how effectively NYK has exploited gaps previously seen within opposing defenses like those exhibited by Detroit earlier this postseason run.
