The Knicks head back to Madison Square Garden on Saturday, riding a wave of momentum and looking to tighten their grip on the series against the Celtics in Game 3.
After back-to-back gutsy wins on the road, the Knicks have flipped the script in stunning fashion, erasing double-digit deficits twice at TD Garden to seize a 2-0 lead.
Wednesday's 91-90 triumph saw Jalen Brunson once again rise to the occasion, calmly sinking two clutch free throws to ice the game without needing overtime this time around.
Josh Hart delivered a pivotal performance on both ends, notching his first 20-point outing of this playoff run while coming up big in the fourth quarter with five rebounds and a pair of crucial blocks to stifle Boston's late charge.
It's been a remarkable turnaround for Tom Thibodeau's squad, who were swept by the Celtics in the regular season and outscored by 65 points across four meetings.
But now, with the series swinging to New York, the Knicks are halfway to their first Eastern Conference Finals appearance since the turn of the century and could move within a win of clinching with a victory on Saturday.
Meanwhile, the Celtics face an uphill battle to salvage their title defense. A loss would leave them staring down a near-impossible 3-0 hole, with their championship hopes hanging by a thread.
