The Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference will be on full display tonight during the NBA Playoffs as the No. 2 New York Knicks host the No. 7 Philadelphia Eagles in a crucial Game 2.

During Saturday’s Game 1, the Knicks lit MSG on fire en route to a 111-104 victory. Josh Hart and Jalen Brunson led the way for the home team with 22 points each. The Sixers will need production from their role players if they want to escape New York with a W. Guard Tyrese Maxey led all scorers with 33 points and Embiid wasn’t too far behind with 29, but no other player scored over 20, and only two other players scored in double digits.
