The Indiana Pacers stand just two victories away from their first National Basketball Association (NBA) Finals appearance since 2000 behind a pick-your-hero approach.

INDIANAPOLIS - The Indiana Pacers stand just two victories away from their first National Basketball Association (NBA) Finals appearance since 2000 behind a pick-your-hero approach.

Tyrese Haliburton and Aaron Nesmith were the stars of Game 1, and Pascal Siakam engineered an old-fashioned takeover in Game 2.

Now, the Pacers look to put the New York Knicks on life support when the NBA Eastern Conference Finals series resumes in Indianapolis on May 25 (May 26, Singapore time).

Indiana hold a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven series after notching two victories in New York. They recorded a 138-135 overtime win in Game 1 before following up with a 114-109 victory in Game 2.

Jalen Brunson has been carrying the Knicks with outputs of 43 and 36 points. Conversely, the Pacers never know who might step up.
