Pacers-Knicks free livestream: How to watch NBA playoffs round 2, TV, schedule

The NBA playoffs continue tonight with more second-round action, as the Indiana Pacers play against the New York Knicks at 6:30 p.m. CT on TNT. Fans can freely watch tonight’s matchup and other NBA playoff games by using DirecTV Stream (free trial). If that streaming option is not available, then fans can get a discounted Sling subscription to watch the games. Both of these streaming services will allow fans to watch other NBA games tonight, including Timberwolves-Nuggets.

Tonight’s game between the Pacers and Knicks will be the first game of their second-round series. The sixth-seeded Pacers are coming off a huge series win over the third-seeded Milwaukee Bucks, so they are carrying a lot of momentum into tonight’s matchup. During the final few games of that series, Pacers star guard Tyrese Haliburton was listed as questionable on the injury report. Haliburton is also listed as questionable for game 1 tonight, but he has not missed a playoff game thus far. He will likely play tonight and will try to improve his three-point shooting percentage this series. Fellow Pacers star Pascal Siakam will look to build on some of his performances in the first round, as he averaged nearly 22 points through six games. If Siakam and Haliburton play well tonight, then the Pacers could upset the Knicks in Madison Square Garden.

The Knicks enter this series as the #2 seed in the Eastern Conference, as they defeated Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey’s Philadelphia 76ers in the first round. Knicks star guard Jalen Brunson was the focal point of that series, as he averaged about 36 points and nine assists through six games. Brunson has played well for the Knicks all season, but he has played even better during the postseason thus far. Against the 76ers, Brunson scored at least 39 points in each of the final four games. Alongside their star guard, the Knicks have five other players who are averaging at least 10 points per game this postseason. With Brunson and his supporting cast playing at such a high level, the Knicks are going to be difficult to beat at home.

Fans can freely watch this enticing second-round matchup by using DirecTV Stream (free trial). Alternatively, Sling is an affordable option for consumers to watch the game tonight. Both of these streaming services will also broadcast Timberwolves-Nuggets after the conclusion of this game.
