Philadelphia 76ers Form

Philadelphia head back to the 'Big Apple' in serious danger of making a quick exit from the postseason.

The 76ers ended the regular season with a 47-35 record and had to book their place in the playoffs via the Play-In Tournament.

They took their second chance to make the postseason, fending off Miami in a 105-104, but they now find themselves on the brink of elimination after three derfeats in four games.

Philadelphia opened up their postseason campaign on the road in New York and suffered 111-104 and 104-101 defeats at the hands of the Knicks.

The 76ers rallied with a 125-114 victory in their first home game of the series, but they failed to back it up in Game 4, as they were beaten 97-92.

New York Knicks Form

New York return home needing just one more win to dump out Philadelphia and advance in the playoffs.

The Knicks, who finished second in the Eastern Conference with a 50-32 record, came into the postseason on a good run of form.

They won their final five games of the regular season, and have kept that good form going during their first few playoff games.

New York took their win streak to seven games as they opened the postseason with back-to-back home wins over Philadelphia, beating the 76ers 111-104 and 1014-101.

The Knicks' run was finally ended by a 125-114 defeat in Philadelphia, but they issued an immediate response with a 97-92 victory that has given them the opportunity to clinch at home.

Verdict

New York continue to have Philadelphia's number, and now they have home court advantage.

The Knicks are backed to wrap up the series by winning and covering on Tuesday night.
