How about this?
As of three weeks ago, since 2003...
There had been two fourth quarter, playoff fourth quarter 20 point comebacks in the playoffs.
As of three weeks ago, there had been two 20 plus point playoff fourth quarter comebacks in the last 23 years in the NBA.
The Knicks have done it twice in the last month.
Down 20 in the fourth quarter of a playoff game.
There was one in like 2012, one in 2014, both in the first round.
The Knicks were down 22 with seven and a half left to the Cavs and down 20 with nine and a half left in the finals.
In the swing game of the finals.
And what they did, and this is where I want to give them all the credit.
Here's how they came back to Monzae.
Down 20.
Nine and a half left.
Alvarado three, Bridges layup, Towns three.
That was the Towns three where he almost could have got called for an offensive foul, kind of kicked his leg out and fell.
So it's just a little 8-0 run.
All right?
So now they're down 12.
Then Castle goes to the line, hits a couple free throws.
So it's 14.
