The NBA playoffs are officially on and the New York Knicks are hoping to keep the regular season momentum going.

It’s already looking pretty good; in game 1 against the Philadelphia 76ers, the Knicks won with a score of 111-104. It’ll take just three more wins in the best-of-seven series to punch a ticket to the conference semifinals.

Tom Thibodeau’s team is the number two seed in the east and guaranteed home-court advantage through the first two series of the four-round playoffs.
