Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau ran back the reworked starting unit he used in Game 3 — inserting Mitchell Robinson in place of Josh Hart.

The Knicks' starting lineup of Jalen Brunson, Mikal Bridges, Karl-Anthony Towns, OG Anunoby and Hart had logged a league-high 940 minutes together in the regular season, far more than any other team in the NBA. The Knicks were widely thought to have one of the most talented starting groups in the league, with their weakness being their thin bench.
