Knicks look to close out defending champion Celtics in Game 5. Timberwolves can do same to Warriors

Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves are on the brink of their second straight trip to the Western Conference finals. In the East, Jalen Brunson and the New York Knicks are a win away from reaching the conference finals for the first time in 25 years. New York wasn't given much of a shot entering its semifinal matchup against a Boston Celtics team it went 0-4 against during the regular season.
