The game one which was played on Thursday had various twists and turns and a thrilling finish to its name.<\/p><p>It was also one of the most watched game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals since 2018. Both the Pacers and the Knicks have been a team to watch out for in the NBA 2025 playoffs. Game 1 more than lived up to the playoff hype.<\/p><p>An average of 6.6 million viewers tuned in, with the numbers peaking at 8.5 million during the wild fourth quarter at 11 p.m. ET. While it was the 2018 Eastern Conference Finals matchup between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Boston Celtics that held the record of the most viewed game 1.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">watch tonight's fantastic finish from Game 1 at Madison Square Garden as we rallied from 14 down with 2:40 remaining &#128064; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/wNwqEQe8nW\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/wNwqEQe8nW<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Indiana Pacers (@Pacers) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Pacers\/status\/1925418185982918741?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>May 22, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/nba-playoffs-thunder-vs-timberwolves-game-2-sgas-mvp-show-guides-oklahoma-city-commanding-2-0-lead-in-wcf-series\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Also Read: NBA Playoffs Thunder vs Timberwolves Game 2: SGA&rsquo;s MVP Show Guides Oklahoma City to Commanding 2-0 Lead in WCF Series<\/a><\/strong><\/p><p>That game averaged around 7.24 million viewers on the ABC network.

Smith said, &ldquo;<em>I am having a very, very bad morning. Look at my face. I&rsquo;m not in a very good mood. I was supposed to be orange and blue skies.

The 28-year-old went on to score 43 points with 15-25 from the field. His efforts were what gave the Knicks the cushion they had coming into the fourth quarter on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Buzzer drama boosts Knicks vs. Pacers viewership<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":39,"featured_media":56219,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_mux_skip_reasons":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[865,380],"class_list":["post-56217","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nba","tag-indiana-pacers","tag-new-york-knicks"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>NBA Viewership Skyrockets During Pacers vs. Knicks Classic Game 1, Creates New Eastern Conference Finals Record - The Playoffs<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The 2025 Eastern Conference Finals began with fireworks.
