The Knicks torched the 76ers, 144-114, on Sunday to complete the series sweep and advance to the NBA's Final Four, all while barely breaking a sweat.
Bully ball: New York has been utterly dominant this postseason, winning eight games by a combined 196 points — and losing two games by a combined two points.
Round 1:
Round 2:
Wild stat: In terms of point differential, the Knicks now have the best 3-game span in NBA playoff history, the two best 4-game spans, the three best 5-game spans, the two best 6-game spans, the best 7-game span, the best 8-game span, the best 9-game span, and the best 10-game span, as noted by Rodger Sherman.

The Stanley Cup Playoffs are about parity. Close games. Tight series. Overtimes. Upsets. Nobody told the top-seeded Hurricanes, who didn't drop a single game en route to the Eastern Conference Final.
Still perfect: The Hurricanes are the fifth team in NHL history to go 8-0 to start the postseason (1985 Oilers, 1969 Blues, 1960 Canadiens, 1952 Red Wings), and the first to sweep their opening two series since all four rounds became best-of-seven in 1987.
What's next: Carolina will have a lengthy wait (up to 11 days!) before playing the winner of the Buffalo vs. Montreal series. The Canadiens currently lead 2-1 after dominant wins on Friday and Sunday.

Steven Goff, Yahoo Sports:
Christian Pulisic is on the cover of Time magazine. He is in a Fox Sports promo and in commercials for deodorant, a sports drink and soccer shoes, among other things.
He is undeniably the face of both the U.S. men's national team and, with the World Cup on home soil, the sport as a whole in this country.
One place you will not have found him in recent months, however, is in the scoring column. And on Sunday, amid the worst drought of his marvelous career, Pulisic was not even in his No. 11 AC Milan uniform.
Slated to start in a 3-2 home loss to Atalanta, the 27-year-old attacker was ruled out with a gluteal muscle strain. It's unclear whether he will return for the last two Serie A matches before World Cup training camp opens May 27 in the Atlanta area.
The injury is the latest downer in a campaign that began in style late last summer but turned sour in 2026.
Now the question is whether he will regain his health and form before the biggest few weeks of his life.

🏀 NBA Playoffs
The Lakers (down 3-0) host the Thunder tonight (10:30pm ET, Prime) in what could be LeBron James' final game in a Lakers uniform — and perhaps even his final game in the NBA should he decide to retire this summer following his 23rd season.
But first: The Cavaliers (down 2-1) host the Pistons (8pm, NBC) as they look to even the series following Saturday's 116-109 victory.
🏒 NHL Playoffs
The Wild (down 2-1) host the Avalanche (8pm, ESPN) in the evening's only NHL action. Will Minnesota draw even with the top-seeded Avs? Or will Colorado bounce back from its first loss of the postseason?

Hint: J and K.
Answer at the bottom.

Ouch.
Eli White saved the Braves from a bases-loaded jam on Sunday with a ridiculous catch at the wall — and paid the price for it.
Trivia answer: John Wall out of Kentucky (2010) and Kwame Brown out of Glynn Academy in Georgia (2001)
