The New York Knicks have their backs against the wall.
After jumping to a quick 2-0 lead in the Eastern Conference Semifinals, Tom Thibodeau’s squad dropped a pair of games to the Indiana Pacers on the road.
“Whether you lose by one or you lose by 30, it’s a loss,” the 66-year-old coach said in a post-game press conference. “You have to respond the right way.”
His Knicks return to their home Madison Square Garden for Game 5 of the series against the Pacers on Tuesday, May 14.
As expected, tickets are not cheap to see Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart and Donte DiVincenzo return to their home hardwood.
At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on tickets was $317 before fees on Vivid Seats.
Floor-level seats start at $671 before fees.
While that may sound pricey, the depleted team — Brunson is playing with an injured foot and stars Julius Randle, OG Anunoby, Mitchell Robinson and Bojan Bogdanovic are all sidelined — will need all the help they can must muster from the hometown fans.

As alluded to above, the Knicks started the second-round series red hot against the Pacers going up 2-0 at home.
Yet, when they went on the road, coach Rick Carlisle — who complained of small market bias against his club — and his Indiana Pacers came roaring back thanks to high-scoring efforts from stars Tyrese Haliburton and Pascal Siakam as well as role players T.J. McConnell and Obi Toppin.
