The New York Knicks failed to close the series and advance to the Eastern Conference finals on Friday night with a 116-103 loss to the Indiana Pacers.

The series now shifts back to New York, with the winner advancing to the Eastern Conference finals to take on the Boston Celtics.

Despite the disappointment of Friday's Game 6 loss, Knicks wing Donte DiVincenzo is already fired up about getting back home to Madison Square Garden to take another crack at the Pacers.

"This is what you live for," DiVincenzo said. "This is why you sign with the Knicks. Come home and play in front of the Garden in Game 7. It's going to be rocking, and that's what we love."

It will surely be a rocking environment at "The Mecca" on Sunday afternoon. Tip-off is set for 3:30 p.m. ET.
