The Knicks' UNBELIEVABLE Comeback STUNS Gil's Arena

The New York Knicks overcame a 29-point deficit, the largest in NBA Finals history, to defeat the San Antonio Spurs in Game 4. This comeback was fueled by a dominant second-half performance where they outscored the Spurs significantly, especially in the third and fourth quarters.

Spurs led by 29 points in the second quarter and 20 points early in the fourth. The Knicks outscored the Spurs 26-14 in the third quarter and had a 20-4 run in the fourth.

The Spurs started Game 4 with record-breaking offensive efficiency, hitting 14 threes in the first half (a Finals record) and scoring 76 points, the most by a road team in Finals history. However, they dramatically cooled off, scoring only 14 points in the third quarter and struggling significantly in the fourth.

Spurs shot 60% from the field and 54% from three in the first half, but were held to 14 points on 4-for-20 shooting in the third period and 2-for-11 shooting in the final nine minutes.

OG Anunoby delivered a playoff career-high 33 points, including 7-for-9 from three-point range, and made the game-winning tip-in. He also had a critical chase-down block on De'Aaron Fox, solidifying his impact on both ends of the floor and making a strong case for Finals MVP.

Anunoby scored 33 points (10-for-15 FG, 7-for-9 3PT), had the game-winning tip-in, and blocked De'Aaron Fox's potential game-winning layup attempt. He is averaging 24 points, 4 rebounds, 1 steal, and 1.5 blocks on 58/56/92 shooting splits for the series.

De'Aaron Fox made several critical errors in the fourth quarter, most notably attempting a layup instead of dribbling out the clock and forcing a foul with the Spurs up by one point in the final seconds. This decision led to OG Anunoby's game-winning block.

Fox tipped the ball to himself, drove for a layup, and was blocked by OG Anunoby. Fox admitted post-game, 'I just thought I'd be able to outrun him.'

Victor Wembanyama, despite leading the Spurs with 24 points and 13 rebounds, struggled significantly in the second half and clutch moments. He shot 3-for-14 in the second half, missed two crucial free throws with 1:47 left, and had zero defensive rebounds and zero blocks in the second half.

Wembanyama missed two free throws with 1:47 remaining, shot 3-for-14 in the second half, and 1-for-4 from the free-throw line in the fourth quarter. He had zero defensive rebounds and zero blocks in the second half.

Knicks coach Mike Brown made a 'gutsy' and 'shrewd' decision to insert Jose Alvarado into the game for 10 minutes in the fourth quarter, despite Alvarado and Brunson never having played together. Alvarado responded by making all three of his shots, including two crucial threes, acting as a catalyst for the comeback.

Alvarado played 10 minutes in the fourth quarter, made all three of his shots (including two threes), and was a +11. This was the first time he and Brunson had played together in their NBA careers.

This 29-point comeback is not an isolated incident for the Knicks. They now have five 20-point comeback wins in the last two playoffs, holding a 5-3 record when trailing by 20 points, compared to the rest of the NBA's combined 4-71 record in such situations.

The Knicks have five 20-point comeback wins in the last two playoffs and are 5-3 when trailing by 20 points in the last two postseasons. They also came back from 22 points down against the Cavs in the Eastern Conference Finals.
