Brunson scored 102 points in 3 games: Key shot + two free throws, and he still scored 23 points in trouble with foul

On May 26, after losing two home games in a row, the Knicks fell into a dilemma of 20 points behind in the Eastern Conference Finals. Brunson only scored 6 of 18 shots in this game, including 1 of 5 three-pointers and was in trouble with fouls, but with the help of 10 free throws, he still scored 23 points. Brunson contributed 4 key points in the last moment, and his key shot and two free throws helped the Knicks complete a 20-point reversal to win a goal, scoring 102 points in the last three Eastern Conference Finals.

In the first two games of the Eastern Conference Finals, Brunson performed extremely well, scoring 43 points, 5 assists and 36 points, 11 assists and 5 three-pointers respectively, but it was difficult to stop the Knicks from losing two home games in a row, falling into the dilemma of falling behind 0-2 in total score.

Now in the third game of the Eastern Conference Finals, Brunson, who came to the away game, performed poorly and he was unable to reproduce his personal performance in the first two games. Brunson actually started offensive mode early. He played all 12 minutes in the first quarter, but only had 2 of 6 shots, including 1 of 3 three-pointers. Brunson made 6 free throws with continuous breakthroughs and made 6 free throws, making him scored 11 points in the first quarter, becoming the only player of the two teams to score in double digits in the first quarter, but it was difficult to stop the Knicks from falling behind by 4 points in the first quarter.

Brunson's condition is gradually declining. He played for 5 minutes and 24 seconds in the second quarter, with only 0 of the three in the performance without a score, and no score in a single quarter. What's worse is that Brunson had been called three fouls in less than 5 and a half minutes in the second quarter, resulting in him having only scored 11 points in 2 of 9 in the first half, but he had already been in trouble with four fouls.

The change of sides and then played again. Brunson played for 10 minutes and 21 seconds in the third quarter. He did not get another foul in a single quarter, but only scored 2 of 5 shots and scored 6 points, and also hit two free throws. Brunson scored 17 points in 4 of 14 in the first three quarters, still the highest score in the team.

and in the final quarter, Brunson continued to hit the inside and shot, joining forces with Towns to help the Knicks gradually overtake 1 point. However, with 7 minutes and 3 seconds left in the fourth quarter, Brunson was broken through by Nemhard and caused his fifth foul. The Knicks chose to challenge, but the challenge failed, which also forced Thibodeau to replace Brunson, which also made the Pacers home fans cheer.

Brunson had 1 minute and 37 seconds left and the two sides had tied 98-98, and he was replaced again, and Brunson immediately completed a flying breakthrough and made a lead. After the Pacers continued to catch up to 2 points, Brunson was fouled by Halliburton for 8.1 seconds left and made steadily with two free throws to maintain a 4-point advantage, and finally helped the Knicks narrowly defeat the Pacers and trailed 1-2 in total.
