New York will pull out all the stops as it faces a do-or-die situation tonight, down 3-1 in the series. The Knicks obviously will have to do a better job containing Tyrese Haliburton, who put on a historical performance in Game 4. The Knicks will also need to cut down on their turnovers after averaging 15 per game in the conference round. New York has won eight of its past 10 Thursday home games. The Knicks got strong performances from their three leading scorers, Jalen Brunson (31 points), Karl-Anthony Towns (24 points) and OG Anunoby (22 points) on Tuesday, but were victimized by 17 turnovers. Towns is suffering from a left knee contusion, but is expected to play. Tom Thibodeau's penchant for having good defensive teams will have to come through tonight. Take the Knicks.
