The can't-miss New York and Indiana Eastern Conference showdown continues tonight with Game 2. We'll show you everything you need to know about where to watch the Pacers vs. Knicks, including streaming options that will allow you to watch the rest of the NBA Playoffs.

While the Eastern Conference Finals is a familiar setting for the No. 4 Indiana Pacers, 2025 marks the No. 3 New York Knicks' first time reaching this round in 25 years. In fact, the last time they made it this far in the Playoffs, they were also facing the Indiana Pacers, who ultimately eliminated New York in a 4-2 series. The Knicks are vying to avoid repeating history, but the Pacers have a leg up after winning the first game.

Game 1 was certainly a tight one. The Knicks performed well in the first half, but the Pacers clawed their way back in the second. The match-up went into overtime thanks to a buzzer-beating shot from Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton. From there, Indiana was ultimately able to pull off the win, finishing with an impressive 138-135 final score. Like the first game, Game 2 will take place at Madison Square Garden, the Knicks' last home court advantage before the series heads to Indianapolis.

No matter which team you're rooting for, we'll ensure you know how to tune in. Keep reading to learn some of the best ways to stream the game, and bookmark our NBA Playoffs guide for additional info.

How to watch Pacers vs. Knicks in the US

Fortunately, cord-cutters don't need to worry about missing out on any of the action. There are a few different ways to keep up with TNT, including live TV streaming packages like Sling TV and DirecTV, which we recommend since they will also enable you to watch the Western Conference Finals and the forthcoming Finals.

Sling TV is our top pick. Both base plans, Sling Blue and Orange, carry TNT in their lineups. However, we recommend Sling Orange since it also offers ESPN (and 33 other popular live channels, including ESPN3, which typically simulcasts NBA on ABC games). Subscriptions start at $46/month, but new customers can get 50% off their first month, making it just $23 for the NBA Playoffs.

DirecTV is another popular live TV service with TNT in its lineup. The MySports genre pack is one of the streamer's less expensive offerings. Subscriptions cost $70/month, but new users can get a five-day free trial. MySports comes with TNT, ESPN, and ABC (in select regions). It also automatically includes access to ESPN Plus, a perk for those who don't already have it.

Max, HBO's streaming counterpart, also carries live TNT games through its B/R Sports Add-on. You'll need to ensure you sign up for an ad-free plan to access the live option. These subscriptions start at $17/month and unlock ad-free on-demand content, although live services will still feature ads. Just keep in mind that this will only allow you to stream the Eastern Conference Finals, not the Western Conference or the NBA Finals.
