A historic comeback, sealed by a play that may forever be etched into Knicks lore.
The New York Knicks are now one win away from ending a championship drought that has stretched more than five decades, and they did it in unforgettable fashion Wednesday night.
Trailing by 29 points, the Knicks produced the largest comeback in NBA Finals history, rallying to stun the San Antonio Spurs 107-106 on OG Anunoby's tip-in with 1.2 seconds remaining.
"That has to be the most iconic shot in the history of New York basketball," Knicks coach Mike Brown said.
Few would argue. With the game hanging in the balance, Jalen Brunson's deep 3-pointer bounced off the front rim before Anunoby soared above the crowd, extending his right arm to gently guide the ball through the net.
