NBA-Play-offs: New York Knicks eliminate defending Champions Boston Celtics

The New York Knicks eliminated the defending champion Boston Celtics from the play-offs with a win of 119-81 to reach their first final of the Eastern Conference for 25 years.

Jalen Brunson and OG Anunoby set the way with 23 points a piece when the Knicks made a victory with 4: 2 series to achieve a showdown against Indiana Pacers with the fourth seed for a place in the NBA final.

The Knicks will open the seven-game series at home on Thursday at 01:00.

Six Knicks players ended in double-digit numbers with the 38-point success, the largest winning play-off lead in franchise history.

Mikal Bridges had four three-point in his 22 points, while Karl-Anthony Towns 21 and Josh Hart ended with a triple double of 10 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists.

The Celtics, who lost the star striker Jayson Tatum against a Achilles tendon with broken law, had given hope for four months after winning five in game.

But in front of a Madison Square Garden Home audience, which included prominent Timothee Chalamet, Lenny Kravitz, Ben Stiller and Spike Lee, the Knicks were in a ruthless atmosphere.

They led to 26-20 after the first quarter, but have done most of the damage in the second damage, which exceeded their opponents at 38-17 to take a lead of 64: 37 to end the Boston Challenge.

Jaylen Brown led the Celtics with 20 points, with Al Horford adding 10 points and Payton Pritchhard ended at 11.

Derrick White, who scored 34 points in the fifth game, was kept calm with only eight points.
