New York Knicks Playoff Schedule: Key Dates, Time, Ticket Prices, TV Channels, and Live Stream

The NY City is perhaps far more excited to see the Knicks playing in the postseason than they’re thrilled about the Nets’ championship chances. And the reason is obvious, the Knicks rule over the Madison Square Garden, two championship rings, a historic legacy, and almost own the Generation X and Baby Boomers. 

The #4 seed Knicks, with a home-court advantage, will face the #5 seed in the Atlanta Hawks in round 1 of the EC. They are back into the postseason conversation after seven years, making it a bigger deal as opposed to Atlanta’s 3-year gap. So what’s exactly their playoff schedule?

New York Knicks Game 1 Ticket Prices

The prices for the Knicks/Hawks game, at least in NY are touching the roofs. The pandemic, apart from the meteoric rise of the Knicks, has fueled enormous interest in the population and the sports facility would like to squeeze some profit out of this excitement. Hence, the cheapest ticket at the iconic Madison Square Garden can burn a $1000 hole in the buyer’s wallet.

Also, note the one thousand bucks (as listed on SeatGeek are exclusive of any additional fees that the provider can ask. One can purchase these tickets for the mentioned secondary-market prices from the teams’ official websites as well. Even as the tickets in the 100 sections are ranging anywhere between $1143 to a whopping $8087 (the max being $13200 maybe allowing a handshaking opportunity with Julius Randle), one can expect a good turnout.

Where and when to watch?

Watch ESPN and Watch TNT will take the split and broadcast all the NBA games that can be streamed both on desktop and on mobile applications. The games on ESPN will also be available on Fubo TV with a 7-day free trial. Apart from this, ABC will be the exclusive official broadcaster for the NBA finals. 

The first round of the postseason will begin on Saturday, May 22nd. As of now, the exact timings for round 1 are not out and one can expect that update only as the play-in tournament concludes. Notably, in the running season, the Knicks were 3-0 against the Hawks, and hence all the prediction and betting odds are supporting a 4-2 series win for the favorites in the Knicks.
