Knicks Come Back From 20 Points Behind Again to Stun Celtics in Boston: Gambling911 Wins Another
The New York Knicks completed another unbelievable 20-point comeback at the TD Garden to stun the Celtics in Game 2 and go up 2-0 in the series. The Knicks were as much as a +11 underdog in this game.
Mikal Bridges blocked Jayson Tatum at the buzzer to lift the Knicks 91-90.
The Knicks went on a wild 21-4 run in the fourth quarter, and took their first lead of the night after a mid-range bucket from Jalen Brunson down the stretch.
On Monday, Brunson and OG Anunoby each scored 29 points before Mikal Bridges stole the ball from Jaylen Brown with a second left in overtime, and the Knicks stunned Boston 108-105 in Game 1 of their series.
Karl-Anthony Towns added 14 points and 13 rebounds for New York, which lost all four games against its longtime rival during the regular season and trailed by 20 points in the second half of this game.
“We told each other just keep believing. Just keep fighting and sticking together, and keep chipping away. There wasn’t going to be a 20-point shot,” Brunson said.
