The Eastern Conference playoff race reached a fever pitch Wednesday as three teams swapped seeding positions following a dramatic night of basketball. The Celtics dropped to the third seed after a stunning home loss to the Cavaliers.
Meanwhile, the Knicks surged to the second seed with a commanding 118-96 victory over the Pacers, led by a 38-point performance from their franchise guard.
With just days remaining in the regular season, the fourth through eighth seeds remain separated by only two games.
