What was up with them fouling Mitch WITH FOULS TO GIVE? Coach is a little braindead if we’re being honest.

Trivia, has any team been down in a playoff in back to back games, then come back to win both?
I was thinking after coming back from 20 down in game 1, that there's no way the Knicks are doing that again in game 2, but they did.
I'm truly in shock

Which then led to Brunson being able to shoot free throws at the end. Thibs keeping Mitch in just to have them foul him was just awesome. And mindblowing Boston would do that
Before last season the Knicks hadn’t won a playoff series since when exactly? St. John’s hadn’t WON an NCAA Tournament game since when? Baby steps my friend. I have to be overly exuberant while we can.
The Garden will be off the rails on Saturday. Strangely I think that might help the Celtics a bit.
Didn't the Knicks do that with Mo Cheeks as guard against Boston ? Oh wait misunderstood your question

Not sure but they hadn't made the East conf finals since the 1999-2000 season.Before last season the Knicks hadn’t won a playoff series since when exactly? St. John’s hadn’t WON an NCAA Tournament game since when? Baby steps my friend. I have to be overly exuberant while we can.

one of the most stunning pair of games I’ve seen. I was glad we got past Detroit, but no part of me thought beating Boston was possible. And hey maybe we still don’t, but getting both games in Boston, after being down TWENTY in both… to start off the series is f’n insane.
MSG is going to be an absolute zoo Saturday

Coach has to get some credit for that suspect Thibs job is safe for another year at least.
What are you talking about? I love those guys.

For the second straight time in the playoffs, the Knicks overcame a 20-point deficit to win on the road.
And by virtue of their latest comeback -- 91-90 over the Boston Celtics in Game 2 at TD Garden -- the Knicks became the first team ever to record back-to-back playoff comebacks from down 20.

I’m still rewatching that last defensive stand by the Knicks.
Bridges with the block but it was a TEAM effort here with Mitch picking up on the perimeter forcing Tatum to go left, then helped by OG who seals off any path to the basket. That sets up the bad shot and Bridges sees it right away and reacts perfectly.
