Those who wanted to get a ticket right by the basketball court when New York Knicks met Indiana Pacers had to pay 62,000 dollars, nearly 600,000 Swedish kronor, on the secondary market.

Just these tickets are traditionally the most expensive in New York's home arena Madison Square Garden, but even the average price for a ticket, 1,200 dollars, is at a record level after Knicks for the first time in 25 years reached the semifinal in NBA basketball.

Those who want to get away a bit cheaper can choose to see the two teams in Indianapolis instead. There, the cheapest ticket currently costs "only" 300 dollars on the secondary market.

Indiana won the first meeting in the best of seven matches, the next match is played on Saturday night Swedish time in New York.
