The New York Knicks reach the Eastern Conference Finals for the second straight season, surviving a seven-game war with the Miami Heat. The Knicks beat the Heat 83-82 at American Airlines Arena, as the Knicks defense hold Miami without a point over the final 90 seconds as Patrick Ewing’s dunk with 1:20 remaining was the difference. The Knicks would lose to the Indiana Pacers in six games and have only won one playoff series since.
