Knicks looking to close out playoff series at MSG for first time since 1999

Knicks looking to close out playoff series at MSG for first time since 1999

The Knicks have a chance to do something at Madison Square Garden on Tuesday night that they haven't done since 1999. Last season, they defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers with the first-round finale played at the Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse. The Carmelo Anthony-led Knicks team of 2013 defeated the Boston Celtics in the first round, with the Celtics hosting the close-out Game 6 at TD Garden. You have to go back before the turn of the century to find the last time the Knicks brought the confetti down at MSG.
