Dear fans, do you dare to believe it? The Knicks once again staged a miracle! At the Boston Garden Arena, facing the powerful Celtics, the Knicks once again completed an epic 20-point comeback, narrowly defeating their opponent 91-90, leading 2-0 with a total score! This is not only a victory, but also a challenge to traditional power and a heavy blow to the "Celtic Dynasty"! From being looked down upon to defeating strong enemies in a row, the Knicks proved with practical actions that everything is possible on the basketball court. The cruelty and charm of the playoffs is that it is full of unknowns and surprises. When the Knicks embarked on the playoffs as the third in the Eastern Conference, people focused more on traditional strong teams such as the Celtics and the Bucks. After all, the 10-game gap between the Knicks and the Celtics and the hard fight with the Pistons in the first round have made people worry about their promotion path. However, the charm of competitive sports lies in "others don't like you, but you are the most successful." In the first game, the Knicks gave everyone a warning at the Boston Garden Arena. A 20-point reversal made people start to re-examine this young team. Anunobi and Brunson shone with two stars, each contributing 29 points, and the team made 17 of 37 three-pointers. The efficient offense made the Celtics unable to defend. But everyone understands that the Celtics will never give up easily, and the G2 game is destined to be a fierce battle. The progress of the
competition also confirms people's expectations. In the first quarter, the Celtics opened fire and quickly established a double-digit lead, while the Knicks seemed a little slow to warm up, scoring only 13 points in a single quarter. In the second quarter, the Knicks tried to counterattack, but the Celtics always responded in time and maintained the score difference in double digits. At the end of the half, the Knicks fell by 9 points. Hart and Towns became the Knicks' main scoring points, contributing 11 and 14 points respectively, but Anunobi and Brunson, who performed well in the last game, felt bad, especially Brunson, who made only 3 of 10 shots. What's worse is that the team's three-point shooting percentage also dropped sharply, with only 3 of 13 shots.
In the second half, the Celtics continued to expand their lead, once widening the gap to 20 points. Just when people thought the game was about to lose suspense, the Knicks once again showed their resilience. Instead of giving up, they eroded the score difference bit by bit through active defense and efficient offense. At the end of the third quarter, the Knicks narrowed the gap to 12 points, rekindling hope.
In the fourth quarter, the Knicks' offensive firepower was fully opened, and Brunson also regained his touch and hit the key ball in a row. With a few minutes left in the game, the Knicks finally finished taking the lead! The entire arena was in an uproar, and the Celtics seemed to be stunned and the offense was stagnant. However, the Celtics are experienced strong teams after all, and they settled their positions at the last moment and regained the initiative. At the critical moment, Brunson withstood the pressure and made both free throws to secure the victory for the Knicks. In the end, the Knicks narrowly defeated the Celtics 91-90, completing another 20-point comeback!
In this game, the Knicks showed strong resilience and teamwork ability. When they were behind, they did not give up, but instead chased the score step by step through active defense and efficient offense. Brunson's key free throws show his responsibility as the core of the team. Of course, the Celtics' failure is also worth reflecting on. They seem a little lax in the lead, with a decrease in defense strength and a lack of change in offense.
Two games, two big reversals of 20 points, the Knicks proved their strength and determination with practical actions. They are no longer the bottom team at the slaughter of others, but a youth army full of vitality and resilience. The 2-0 total score gave the Knicks a hope of advancing to the Eastern Conference Finals and also made the entire Eastern Conference pattern full of variables.
Of course, we cannot assert that the Celtics are out. After all, they are a highly experienced team with strong adjustment abilities. In the next game, they will definitely fight back with all their might and strive to win back the game. But no matter what, the Knicks have won respect and opportunities. Can they seize the opportunity and reach the Eastern Conference Finals in one fell swoop? Let's wait and see!
