00:00So again 11 point lead for the
00:01Celtics.
00:02Hi again everyone with Richard
00:03and Doris Mike Green on hand.
00:04We'll check in with Lisa in a
00:05moment.
00:05Well we just saw Jason Tatum in
00:07a playing Superman in a
00:08commercial he was Superman in
00:10the first half.
00:11No it was impressive to watch.
00:12He was doing a little bit of
00:13everything.
00:13It was the defense on town.
00:15It was the shot selection the
00:17ball rotation and the assist.
00:19He did a little bit of
00:20everything and that's what you
00:21need from your superstar.
00:23Doris meanwhile the Knicks
00:24showing some good grit some
00:26good resilience but they still
00:27find themselves down by 11
00:29points.
00:30What did you like from the
00:30Knicks in the first half?
00:32Well I thought Jalen Brunson was
00:33sensational with the tempo with
00:35which he played and you just
00:36need to keep game pressure on.
00:38You want to be going into the
00:39fourth within 10.
00:42Make the Celtics prove they can
00:43beat you in a possession
00:44ballgame.
00:46Of course that was the case in
00:47games 1 and 2 coming back from
00:4820 down.
00:49White misses.
00:50Holiday offensive board.
00:52Brown a beautiful move inside
00:55and an easy layup for Jalen
00:56Brown.
00:59So back to 13 equaling the
01:02largest lead.
01:04Mike one of the things coming
01:05out of halftime if we were down
01:0710-12 points the goal was to make
01:09the other team call the first
01:11time out.
01:12Make Boston call the first time
01:13out if you're the Knicks.
01:15Towns kicks it out to heart.
01:16Shot clock at 4.
01:18Bridges off the bounce.
01:19Gets to the baseline.
01:20Leans in.
01:21Lamp is good.
01:21Pretty move and adjustment
01:22from McHale Bridges.
01:25He's got 11 points.
01:33Brown with 14 so far tonight.
01:39Drives again.
01:41Gets inside.
01:41Shot blocked by Bridges.
01:43Excellent defensive play.
01:45Brunson in the front court.
01:46Keeps that dribble alive.
01:52Towns wants it down low.
01:53He's got White on him.
01:55And Holiday lurking.
01:57Shot is good.
01:58And a foul.
01:59How did he do that?
02:00Carl Anthony Towns slipped it
02:02in after taking some contact.
02:05This was a matchup problem
02:07from the outset for the Boston
02:09Celtics.
02:09You've got Derek White who is
02:10a brilliant defensive player.
02:11But this is a size mismatch.
02:13Drew tries to come over.
02:15He's got unbelievable feet.
02:17And Carl Anthony Towns finally
02:19an end-one opportunity.
02:21Boy, there was contact everywhere
02:23on that play from the opening
02:25dribble from all three players.
02:27Holiday, meanwhile, his third foul.
02:29He was in some foul trouble
02:30in game three.
02:33And that had Peyton Pritchard
02:35getting some extra minutes.
02:36We know how that turned out
02:37as we check in with Lisa.
02:39Hey, Mike, an update on Jalen Brunson
02:40who appeared to re-aggravate
02:42that right ankle at the end
02:43of the second quarter.
02:44You could see the ankle roll
02:45as it kind of hit Al Horford's leg.
02:47And Brunson went to the floor
02:48grimacing.
02:49Horford was called for a foul.
02:50Brunson shot two free throws.
02:52He limped to the line
02:53both attempts
02:54and limped back to the locker room
02:55at halftime.
02:56I've been told he didn't get
02:57any treatment at the half.
02:59He came out of the locker room,
03:00put some shots up like usual,
03:02but something, Mike,
03:03to keep an eye on
03:04the rest of the way.
03:04He's had a bunch of games
03:06taken out during the Piston Series
03:08but always returned.
03:09By the way, that was some pass
03:11from Tatum on that last play.
03:13Ananobi on the drive.
03:16Reflected out.
03:17Nick Paul seven to shoot.
03:20And this was the play
03:20that Lisa just referenced.
03:23This jammed it right in
03:24to the right foot.
03:26Horford.
03:27Horford was upset
03:29the foul call
03:30but that's why
03:30the foul was called.
03:32Alley of Towns.
03:33Nice backdoor play.
03:36And Towns able
03:37to get the bucket.
03:38He's the Knicks leading
03:39score with 15.
03:41Much more aggressive
03:42and attacking tonight.
03:43Yeah, he is.
03:44He's come out.
03:44Even OG has come out
03:46before the hamstring.
03:47They're about two or three
03:48possessions away
03:49from what we talked about
03:50and making the Celtics
03:51have to react
03:52with some sort of timeout.
03:54Tatum finds some space.
03:56Gets an opening
03:56and hits another three.
03:58His fifth three-pointer.
03:59He's got 23.
04:00They're just relentlessly
04:01attacking Carl Anthony Towns.
04:03They're putting him
04:04into every action
04:05and just saying
04:06guard, guard all over the floor.
04:08Brunson can't get it.
04:09Horford gets the rebound.
04:14White stripped by Josh Hart.
04:16Hart falls down.
04:18Knicks upset
04:19but there should have
04:19been a foul call.
04:20Tatum comes up with a steal.
04:22Tatum kicks it back out.
04:24White plenty of time.
04:25Sets, fires,
04:26and rattles in another three.
04:28And this is now
04:29the largest lead
04:30of the game.
04:30Timeout.
04:31Knicks, Celtics,
04:32a 14-point lead
04:33here in the third.

04:42second game of the doubleheader
04:45from San Francisco.
04:46Julius Randle and the Timberwolves
04:48looking to take a commanding 3-1 lead
04:49in that best-of-seven series.
04:52Meanwhile, here in New York,
04:53a costly sequence for the Knicks.
04:56So, you're going to see
04:58a terrific steal.
04:59I thought this was a foul
05:00on Derek White.
05:01Oh, yeah, they have not.
05:03The Knicks have not got
05:03the benefit of a whistle.
05:05You've got to keep playing
05:06through it,
05:07but ultimately,
05:07this is what happens.
05:08Derek White,
05:09who has been on fire
05:11from the start of the game,
05:12has been going.
05:13And they continue
05:13to seek out
05:14the dance partner
05:15for Jason Tatum.
05:16And he is looking
05:17for Carl Anthony Towns,
05:19who's in a position
05:19yet again
05:20to have to close
05:21to a shooter.
05:23What do you think
05:23of the celebration there?
05:25I don't know.
05:26It's new.
05:26I want to ask him about it.
05:27I want to say
05:28a little hold the wrist,
05:29throw up to three.
05:30I think he's saying
05:30that his wrist is fine, DB.
05:359 of 14
05:36from the field tonight
05:37for sure.
05:388 on the 24.
05:39They leave Brunson,
05:40lines it up
05:41and knocks down a three.
05:42Brunson has not had
05:43many clean looks
05:45like that
05:45throughout these playoffs.
05:5016 points
05:51for Brunson.
05:53Celtic shooting
05:5356%
05:55from the field
05:56and 52
05:57from three-point range.
05:59Brunson trying
06:00to help now
06:00on Tatum.
06:02Calling for White
06:03to come over to help.
06:05Throws it back
06:06to White.
06:06Shot clock at four.
06:07White off the bounce.
06:08His first two-point shot
06:09of the night.
06:10That won't go.
06:11And Towns the rebound.
06:16Brunson drives past
06:17Hawford,
06:17gets inside,
06:18leans in,
06:18bangs it in.
06:23Back-to-back buckets
06:24for Brunson.
06:26The Suffolk lead
06:26cuts a nine.
06:34Tatum,
06:35again with Towns on him.
06:37Looking to back up.
06:38Shot clock at seven.
06:39Long three-pointer.
06:41Won't go.
06:42Hart comes flying in
06:43for the rebound.
06:43Boy, boxes and elbows.
06:45Everybody in the gaps.
06:47Hart to Brunson.
06:48Brunson another three.
06:50Fouled on the three-point attempt.
06:51And they say they're going to
06:53review it as well.
06:55And a concern, obviously,
06:56for the Knicks.
06:57Did it affect the ankle?
07:02Third foul on Brown.
07:04Looks like he's wiggling
07:05the left ankle.
07:06Yeah, the right one is the one
07:07that he was out for.
07:08Checking to see if the foul
07:09on the floor that's called to be able
07:10meet the criteria for a flare and foul.
07:12Now, this would be a huge call.
07:17Jalen Brown with the late closeout,
07:19and that's the actual opposite
07:20of what you want,
07:21and that is the left ankle.
07:23You can see it.
07:24That's just not the closeout that
07:26the, that's the closeout that the
07:27league tried to outlaw.
07:29Watch, and I don't think it's
07:30intentional, but look,
07:31he has that left leg out.
07:33There's not a lot of space for
07:34landing zone.
07:35Those are the ones when you put
07:37the foot in, it's often called
07:38the flagrant, even as you said,
07:40intentional.
07:40So, not intentional, but that's
07:43exactly the reason why it started.
07:45You see Brunson go down, so now
07:47both ankles perhaps following him.
07:52Well, it's 739 remaining here
07:54in the third.
07:54Nick's down by nine.
07:56A very important call.
07:57If it's a flagrant, it's two free
07:58throws and possession, three free
08:00throws, excuse me, and possession.
08:04I think that's the call.
08:06I don't see there, you know, a guy
08:09rolls his ankle, shoot three, you
08:11called the foul, you, you see the
08:13contact, and I think it's a pretty
08:15simple one.
08:15Scott Foster.
08:17After he knew, it's been determined
08:18that the call in the four has been
08:19upgraded to a flagrant foul, penalty
08:21one.
08:22For the defender, they're having a
08:23reckless closeout and not allowing
08:25the shooter, Dallin Bunsen, to land
08:26safely.
08:28He'll shoot three, they'll retain
08:29possession of the ball.
08:30Yeah, again, that's, and you said it,
08:33Richard, that's exactly why that, the
08:35rule changed several years ago.
08:37Let's bring in Steve Javi, our referee
08:39expert.
08:40Steve, your thoughts on this particular
08:42play?
08:43Yeah, Mike, what they look for also on
08:45this play, too, is how far the
08:47defender comes to slide his foot in
08:50the lane of the shooter.
08:52And in this situation, you have the
08:54defender sliding his foot there.
08:56Grunting can't land safely, therefore
08:59the potential for injury is there,
09:00therefore flagrant foul, penalty one.
09:02Thank you, Steve.
09:03Always lovely to see you.
09:05Yeah, it's good to see Steve and not
09:07be getting a technical from him.
09:12You didn't have many.
09:13No, you did have a lot.
09:14We checked this out once.
09:15No, no, I didn't have a lot.
09:16I know, it was like one per year.
09:18I had 41 technicals in my career.
09:20Mike, that's not bad.
09:22You say one per you?
09:23Well, you played a long time.
09:27So, three free throws in possession.
09:28Brunson now with 20.6 assists.
09:31And these are the type of things that
09:33can help you get back in.
09:34Celtics came out scorching again
09:37here to begin the third.
09:38Went up by 14.
09:41That's the first missed free throw by the Knicks.
09:43Tom Thibodeau's team
09:49has been trailing
09:52most of this game.
09:54Did grab a lead a couple of times
09:56after trailing the entire game three.
09:59Bridges against White.
10:01Tough shot.
10:02Gets it.
10:02A go.
10:04Nine straight points by the Knicks
10:06to the lead.
10:06Cut to five.
10:07That is Mikel Bridges' sweet spot.
10:09That little fade is his go-to.
10:11crowd back into it.
10:14They were completely taken out of the game.
10:18The other afternoon,
10:19White hesitated on the three
10:21and then nails it.
10:22Six of eight from three-point range.
10:25Incredible long-distance shooting
10:27from Derek White.
10:28Just over five minutes gone by
10:37in this third period.
10:38Brunson against Horford.
10:40Drives, pulls back.
10:41Looking, finds Hart.
10:42Hart not expecting it.
10:44Now Bridges his corner three.
10:46In and out.
10:46Hart, offensive rebound.
10:48Back out stolen by Tatum.
10:50Tatum ahead of the pack
10:51goes in and throws it down.
10:53Great anticipation for Tatum.
10:54And that's his third steal.
10:57And a costly turnover for the Knicks.
11:04Brunson gets past Horford.
11:05Goes inside.
11:06Layup is good.
11:08Another slick move from Jalen Brunson.
11:11His ability to use his body
11:13to keep the...
11:15I mean, how many inches is he giving up
11:17and the finish...
11:19Hart falls down.
11:21Gets back up.
11:22Holiday looking to post him up.
11:23Shot clock winding down.
11:25Goes up the shot.
11:27No good.
11:27Towns, the two-handed rebound.
11:30Hart wants to push,
11:31but the Celtics back defensively.
11:34Towns off the bounce.
11:35Goes to the rim.
11:36Layup banks it in.
11:37Timeout Joe Mazzola.
11:39The lead cut to six.
11:41And the crowd coming alive
11:43here at the Garden.
11:44Carl Anthony Towns showing up big,
11:53going big versus big.
11:56Gets an own one.
11:57And then here, Brunson,
11:58watch the footwork.
12:00Takes his time.
12:01Shuffles.
12:02Uses that left hand inside.
12:04Knicks are cruising down by six.
12:06Disney Plus defending champion Liberty
12:17hosts the Aces at 1 Eastern,
12:18then Kaitlin Clark on the fever,
12:20hosts Angel Reese in the sky.
12:21Coverage begins with WNBA countdown
12:23at 12.30.
12:27Jalen Brunson, Carl Anthony Towns,
12:29the two All-Stars for the mix.
12:32Trying to get them back in
12:33after trailing by 14.
12:34Brunson, an excellent
12:35third quarter so far.
12:38Towns much more aggressive doors.
12:39I'll tell you,
12:40they've taken away his threes
12:41for the most part in the series.
12:42Mike, he's dominating in the paint,
12:45either off drives or post-ups.
12:48White to Tatum.
12:49Bridges guarding him.
12:50Shot clock at six.
12:54Tatum leans in.
12:55Difficult shot.
12:56Gets it a go.
12:58Tatum, 27 points.
13:00A brilliant performance so far.
13:02Boston back up by eight.
13:08And an Obie.
13:11Derek White chasing Jalen Brunson.
13:15Fake, fire, connects.
13:18Another three-pointer for Brunson.
13:19He's got 12 points already in the period,
13:21and there's still five minutes remaining.
13:23Defense!
13:26Defense!
13:28Defense!
13:30Defense!
13:31Jalen Brown gets past hard.
13:33Gets to the rim.
13:34Banks it home.
13:35Another aggressive attack from Jalen Brown.
13:38And that's just the good balance.
13:40Jalen Brown, two for six from the three-point line,
13:43but five for 12 overall.
13:44Just a consistent attack.
13:46Brunson kicks it a heart.
13:48But poor Zingas was right there.
13:51Brunson, that one won't go.
13:52Tatum grabs another rebound.
13:54Seven-point Celtic lead.
13:56Just over four and a half to go here in the third.
13:59They lob it into poor Zingas.
14:01Stolen by Bridges.
14:02Brown tries to stop him.
14:04Pritchard in pursuit from behind.
14:06Knocked loose out of bounds.
14:07Still Nick Ball.
14:08Just incredible effort.
14:10You save what could be a layup at foul.
14:12Little in one.
14:14Pritchard's sprint.
14:15I mean, this young man just never gives up on a play.
14:19Yes, your teammates neck and neck, but don't assume anything.
14:24That's winning basketball.
14:25Yes, it is.
14:26Towns catches, turns, quick shot.
14:30Got it.
14:32Towns having his best game.
14:34Efficiency-wise, nine of 12 from the field.
14:37And it's back to five.
14:39He's got nine of his 19 in this third period.
14:42Tatum using the screen.
14:46And Ananobi runs over poor Zingas.
14:51Oh, Ananobi picks up his first foul.
15:01It looks like he's on the line of scrimmage.
15:05Look at that football block.
15:06Celtics third and four.
15:10That is Tatum-Alenbaum, 14 on the shot clock.
15:12That's what you call it, right?
15:13The line of scrimmage?
15:14Yes, yes.
15:15I think so.
15:18Norrisburg, our football maven here on the telecast.
15:25Tatum, catch.
15:26Off the dribble.
15:27Gets in the paint.
15:28Stops falling away.
15:29Puts it up.
15:30Puts it in.
15:31Tatum dominating here in game four.
15:33The lead back up to seven.
15:35He has 29 points without a free throw.
15:38Brunson kicks it out.
15:40And Ananobi, corner three.
15:42Rebound, Brunson.
15:43Back up.
15:44Bang shot is good.
15:46Brunson and Tatum throwing haymakers at each other.
15:50Two of the games elite going toe-to-toe.
16:01Tatum on the drive.
16:03Towns trying to stay with him.
16:04Shot clock at eight.
16:05Shoots another three.
16:06Won't go.
16:08And Ananobi rips down the rebound.
16:11Hart on the open floor.
16:12Goes right at Brown.
16:13Inside layup.
16:15Block.
16:15And a foul pulled on Brown.
16:17That's four on Jalen Brown.
16:19And the Knicks could cut it to three here at the line.
16:23Josh Hart downhill.
16:24That's what he does.
16:25Yes.
16:26Jalen Brown gets the ball first, but his hand finished through.
16:29And then Brunson.
16:30We talked about just how shifty he is.
16:33Be able to get that off the glass with Porzingis.
16:36Seven foot four.
16:37Shot blocker there.
16:38That is so, so difficult.
16:41Hart often the catalyst for this Knick team time and time again.
16:46He's a good free throw shooter, but misses that one.
16:48Knicks now seven of nine from the line.
16:51The Celtics have led by as many as 14 points here in the third quarter.
17:00Of course, games one and two in Boston.
17:02Big second half comebacks for the Knicks.
17:04Brown will rest with the four fouls.
17:08Now the Celtics have won the first quarter, last two minutes.
17:13They've won the second quarter, last two minutes.
17:16This is a big three minutes for the New York Knicks.
17:19So many people talk about that.
17:20The coach's closing quarter is essential.
17:23Defense!
17:25Defense!
17:27Defense!
17:28Hart and Porzingis wrestling down low.
17:31Porzingis to height advantage.
17:32Makes a difficult shot attempt.
17:33Can't get it.
17:34Towns the rebound.
17:35He's got 11 of those.
17:37Here's Bridges.
17:38Bridges pulls up jumper.
17:40Too strong.
17:41And Anobi tracks it down.
17:44Fakes kicks it out.
17:45Brunson.
17:45Oh, good defense from White, but Brunson's still looking.
17:50Falling away.
17:51Puts it up.
17:51That's good!
17:53Galen Brunson does it again.
17:54It's a two-point game.
17:56Timeout Boston.
17:57And Madison Square Garden has come alive.
17:59So, we've talked all game about Brunson being patient.
18:06So, we've got plenty of time here, Richard.
18:09And get to the opposite side of the floor.
18:12Get in the vision of the offensive rebounder.
18:15It's one-on-one from here.
18:16You've got one guy to beat.
18:18Oh, I see that fade away.
18:19Anthony Edwards and the Timberwolves looking to take a 3-1 lead tonight on the road against the Warriors.
18:31That's the second game of our doubleheader.
18:36Nixon Celtics.
18:38The home team has still not won a game.
18:41Here in the series, road team winning the first three.
18:45Nixon cut a 14-point lead to two.
18:47White poised up three-pointer off the mark.
18:54And a loose ball foul is going to go against Ananobi.
18:57No, it's Josh Hart.
18:59And that's three on Hart.
19:05That's the first instant that was an NBA player.
19:07Look up at the big screen.
19:12Wow.
19:13That's a tough one.
19:14It sure is.
19:16And, you know, we've mentioned before.
19:18Tatum fires away too strong.
19:21Rebound Brunson.
19:24Brunson fakes and brings it back out with Tatum in pursuit.
19:31Brunson puts up a three.
19:34Bridges deflects it.
19:35Ball goes out of bounds.
19:37And it's going to be Celtic ball.
19:38Brunson with 16 of his 29 here in the third as we're under two minutes to play.
19:53Tatum, nine of his 29 here in this third period.
19:58Defense!
19:58Defense!
19:58Defense!
19:59Defense!
19:59Defense!
20:00Defense!
20:01Defense!
20:02Defense!
20:02Defense!
20:03Shot clock at seven.
20:04Tatum one-on-one with Ananobi.
20:05Fires away.
20:06Air ball.
20:07White with the save.
20:09To Harper.
20:09Back to White.
20:10Corner three.
20:12And bridges the rebound.
20:17Josh Hart.
20:20Back out Towns.
20:21Fakes, drives, and draws the foul.
20:23Shot won't count.
20:24It will not count as Tatum bumped him before the free throw, before the field goal attempt.
20:31That's going to be three fouls on Tatum and free throws for Towns.
20:40Oh, yeah.
20:41It's well before.
20:42It's a good call.
20:43And my mistake, that's only the 14th foul.
20:45First in the last two minutes.
20:47Brunson guarded by White.
20:59Drives into the paint.
21:00Pulls back.
21:01Looks up at the shot clock.
21:02He's got to get it off.
21:03Falling away.
21:03Puts it up.
21:04Puts it in!
21:05A Brunson barrage here in the third quarter of the game is tied.
21:11Tatum drives.
21:12Gets inside.
21:13Tripped up and goes down.
21:14And he's shaking up on the play.
21:19Tatum with a burst of speed.
21:21Looking to throw it down.
21:26Flexing that right wrist.
21:31Meanwhile, Josh Hart picks up his fourth.
21:37And just downhill.
21:39And this is just unlucky.
21:40Steps on his.
21:41And then you just brace yourself.
21:42That's exactly how he hurt that wrist.
21:44In the Orlando series forced him to have to deal with that the rest of the way.
21:49So anytime you fall down a normal brace, that's still going to be so difficult.
21:54And Josh got a piece of that exact spot right before the fall.
21:58So Joe Mazzullo walked and sat on the bench.
22:02He didn't yell to him to get up like he did in the Orlando series.
22:07Joe Mazzullo, the outstanding young coach for the Celtics.
22:11Youngest coach in the NBA.
22:18Tatum.
22:21Now at 31.
22:23Celtics back up by two.
22:26Final minute, third quarter.
22:27Brunson being chased by White.
22:37Cornette picks him up for the help.
22:38Brunson drives inside.
22:39The floater won't go.
22:40Josh Hart's tip misses.
22:42Fight for the rebound.
22:43And White in traffic.
22:44Comes away with it.
22:45But called for a travel.
22:47Boy, it looked like he got bumped.
22:52Nick surrounded him.
22:54White just smiles.
22:55No, I think he just traveled.
23:02It's really good pressure by New York without bodying up and fouling.
23:08Holiday will check in.
23:09Cornette will sit down.
23:1441.2 seconds.
23:16Here are the third.
23:21Holiday now on Brunson.
23:23Brunson drives inside.
23:27Kicks it out.
23:28And an OB.
23:29Wide open three-pointer.
23:30It's good.
23:42Down 14 earlier in the period.
23:44Knicks now back on top.
23:47About a seven and a half second difference shot clock and game clock.
23:50Tatum searching.
23:52Drives.
23:52Pulls back.
23:53Fires away.
23:56Rebound bridges.
23:57Eight seconds remaining.
23:59Hart in the front court.
24:01Hart the drive.
24:02Gets to the rim.
24:03Bang shot.
24:03It's good.
24:062.5 remaining.
24:07Pritchard wants the ball.
24:09This is his specialty.
24:11Pritchard from half court at the buzzer.
24:14And that ends the third quarter.
24:17Galen Brunson brilliant in the period.
24:20Jason Tatum trying to match it.
24:23We head to the fourth quarter.
24:25Knicks with a three-point lead.
24:27Came alive and took over that third quarter.
24:39What are you seeing from your superstar?
24:40Well, I think that we got some stops and then we were able to get into transition and get
24:44him into space.
24:46Very difficult to guard in space.
24:48Jason Tatum also got hot in that third quarter.
24:51What do you have to do defensively against Tatum to keep him from beating you in the fourth?
24:54He's got to stay disciplined.
24:56He has the ability to make tough shots, but he's got to take his airspace away.
25:01All right, Lisa.
25:02Mikkel Bridges, who has played a strong, aggressive game.
25:0615 points.
25:07This is the Knicks' largest lead.
25:09Again, after they trail by 14 in the third.
25:13Galen Brown.
25:15Tied up by Bridges.
25:17McBride almost took it away.
25:18Pritchard, the spin move, gets inside.
25:21Comes down.
25:22A whistle and a foul.
25:23Pritchard gets knocked to the floor.
25:25The Knicks wanted to travel.
25:31Just look like a play going nowhere.
25:33He's trying to get some contact and there's a foul, obviously, on Mitchell Robinson.
25:38How about this, though, if you're the Knicks?
25:41In the unusual position of being in the lead in the fourth.
25:47It's the first time he was riding him, huh?
25:50Is that my bike's over here?
25:52Right.
25:53They were like, it's a travel.
25:54It was riding him like a horse.
25:56Pritchard, he just found the one angle where he could go.
25:59So, it's going to get to the free throw line.
26:09Knocks down the first.
26:11Cut it to four.
26:13Lisa Tatum.
26:14We've got the wraparound on that right wrist.
26:1731 points through three quarters.
26:19That's where it seemed to aggravate it.
26:20Boy, Pritchard is, doesn't matter the situation, he is fearless no matter what the situation.
26:30No, it was so awesome to have an opportunity to speak to him.
26:32The man said he won four state championship, was a rookie point, or was a freshman starter as a point guard.
26:38Then he went to the final four.
26:39These moments he's used to.
26:41Bridges falling away.
26:43Mikael Bridges with some big buckets.
26:46Lead back to five.
26:50Derrick White.
26:53Searching.
26:54Brown, guarded by Towns.
26:57Drives inside, lays it up and in.
26:59Beautiful move from Jalen Brown.
27:02And we start the fourth quarter with the team's exchanging buckets.
27:14Bridges pulls back.
27:16Luke Cornett on him.
27:17Al Horford's guarding Robinson.
27:21Hart pulls back.
27:22Jump shot in the paint.
27:24Comes up short.
27:25Robinson trying to tip it.
27:26But it goes right to Pritchard.
27:29Brown on the run.
27:30The spin move.
27:31And lost it.
27:32Oh, a blocking foul called on Hart.
27:34And that's five on Josh Hart.
27:36We talked about the Knicks not necessarily getting the benefit of the whistle.
27:50I don't see that as a, as I think that's a charge.
27:53And I think Tom Thibodeau wants to check it out.
27:55What?
27:55He's going to be set.
27:56He's going to be set.
27:57Square.
27:58Thibodeau with the first challenge of the night.
28:03Right now, Hart has five fouls.
28:06The NBA conference semifinals on ESPN are delivered by Chipotle.
28:14Real ingredients.
28:15Real flavor.
28:16Chipotle.
28:17For real.

28:36This copyrighted broadcast of the National Basketball Association may not be retransmitted,
29:06beware of the national contaminatedughts.
29:08You step up in form with the national maps.
29:11You step up in form with the National Medal of Education for thehof and the bootcamp to be replaced.
29:14It's time to win unbelievably unman motorcycle in Kentucky.
29:15It's all aboutrait and roughsh prematurely, but the Enokiations are kept keeping awake and ruthless.
29:20We need to come to the United States.
29:21We only Sprout at a problem with the security system.
29:22We need to continue to secure our praktekest capabilities.
29:24We keep密 sealing bound on the mount.
29:29But after we still need Потомуstour13 people over gusts, the European Union are very few',
29:35After he knew it was going to determine that Josh Hart tripped him with his left foot and
29:49is outside the plane in his body, the call will be a blocking foul, and upheld the challenge
29:54being unsuccessful in every charge of timeout, they will not be able to challenge subsequent
29:58plays, the game clock's been reset to 10-23, and the shot clock's been back to 20.
30:05Josh Hart remains with five fouls, the Knicks have two team fouls, the Knicks are charged
30:17with a timeout, and do not have another challenge remaining in the game.
30:35Welcome once and a goal is a Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks!
31:01The Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks. Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks, Knicks,
31:32I don't necessarily agree with that call.
31:35To me, he hits him in his chest, then tries to spin out and trips on the spin out.
31:40I don't think Josh Hart could have done anything differently in that moment.
31:44Brutal call, Mike, because it was going to be five fouls on either Josh Hart or Jalen Brown.
31:49So Hart's on the bench with five fouls.
31:52McBride in, and Ananobi deflects it.
31:54And then a loose ball foul on Brown.
31:56Now he has five fouls.
31:58O.G. Ananobi, elite defense there.
32:07Just a menace defensively.
32:10Great anticipation and obvious to me.
32:13That's...
32:14They're just calling that a common foul on Jalen Brown?
32:18Well, they didn't have possession.
32:19So it's a loose ball, so it's not a possession.
32:23No transition take foul there.
32:28McBride, Bridges, Robinson, Towns, the two bigs, and Ananobi.
32:34Brunson right now on the bench, as is Jason Tatum.
32:37Bridges drives on Horford, looks inside, brings it back out.
32:41Finds Towns.
32:42Guarded by White.
32:43Towns spins, flips it up and in.
32:4621 points for Towns.
32:48Knicks back up five.
32:50He's 10 of 13 from the field.
32:52Almost all of his shots, Mike, in the paint.
32:57Tatum against Towns.
32:59Backs up.
33:00Shot clock at nine.
33:02Tatum gets in the paint, flips it up.
33:04Shot is good.
33:06Oh, what a shot from Jason Tatum.
33:08Little extra English.
33:10And a lead back to three.
33:1233 points for Tatum.
33:14Bridges asking Towns to clear out.
33:23Here comes the double team.
33:24Now finds Towns.
33:25Quick three-pointer.
33:26That won't go.
33:27Robinson, offensive rebound to McBride.
33:29Three-pointers up.
33:32And Horford grabs it.
33:35Still over nine minutes to go.
33:39Here in game four.
33:40Tatum drives to Porzingis.
33:45Steps back three-pointer.
33:47Too strong.
33:49White comes up with it.
33:51Porzingis down the floor.
33:53No good.
33:53Late whistle and a foul.
33:54Towns clearly hit him.
33:56And that's Towns' fourth foul.
34:02So you're talking about the winning on the margins.
34:05Offensive rebounding is a piece of that.
34:07It's a three, so it comes out long.
34:09Derrick White just in the right spot.
34:12And there's the contact by Towns.
34:20Of course, Boston's first half.
34:2212 of 24 from three.
34:24They're three for 13 since.
34:27And as Tatum set the check back in.
34:29Tomorrow's playoff schedule.
34:31Double enter on TNT.
34:32Game five.
34:33Cleveland at home trying to keep their season alive.
34:36And then Denver and Oklahoma City.
34:39Game five.
34:42All tied up at two apiece.
34:47No, Porzingis when he first came back after being traded by the Knicks.
34:51He was booed every single time he touched the ball.
34:54Despite him being a good player for the Knicks.
34:57But now it's much less.
35:01Seven points.
35:03Four rebounds for Porzingis.
35:05Knicks lead is one.
35:06Porzingis guarding Brunson.
35:08Kicks it out.
35:09Bridges.
35:10Bridges gets away from right.
35:12Once again, the two-pointer from Bridges.
35:14He's got 19.
35:18Doris, you said at the top.
35:19Somebody besides Brunson really had to have a big game.
35:22And the Knicks have gotten a few.
35:24Tatum stepped back.
35:25Three-pointer.
35:25That's good.
35:26Jason Tatum is sixth three-pointer.
35:28And the game is tied.
35:31Mike, and the scoring Mikkel did in this quarter when Brunson was sitting was massive.
35:37They held the lead at that point.
35:40Holiday now guarding Brunson.
35:42Towns gets a fake.
35:46Now drive, throws it inside.
35:48Robinson lays it up and in.
35:50An awkward alley-oop with a successful one.
35:55Here's Horford.
35:56Thought about it.
36:01Tatum drives.
36:03Pulls back up.
36:05Three-pointer.
36:07Bounces off the rim.
36:08And Horford battling.
36:10And it's going to be Knicks ball.
36:15They call a foul on it.
36:16It's Horford's second foul.
36:19Carl and Big Towns was lucky he didn't get that foul call there.
36:22But on the other end, great decision.
36:24Could have had the three.
36:25Decides to drive.
36:26And then how many big can throw that pass?
36:29How many seven-footers can throw that pass?
36:31And even here, Al Horford trying to do the work.
36:34But Mikkel Bridges battling.
36:36Battling against Al Horford.
36:38That's what gets them this possession.
36:43Brunson.
36:44One-on-one with Al and a crossover.
36:46Step back.
36:47That's a two-pointer.
36:48Way short.
36:49Tatum the rebound.
36:52Tatum was looking to throw it up the floor.
36:53Knicks got back defensively.
36:55Tatum.
36:56One side dribble.
36:57And that's another three.
36:58Thirty-nine points for Jason Tatum.
37:01His seventh three-pointer.
37:03And the Celtics back up by one.
37:05What a response.
37:06He was one for six from three in the third.
37:08Didn't lose confidence at all.
37:14Bridges looking for the opening.
37:16Another two-point attempt.
37:17Another one goes down.
37:1821 for Bridges.
37:27Tatum lobs it in.
37:29Porzingis drives inside.
37:30Layup.
37:31No good.
37:31Robinson the rebound.
37:32And Ananobi fakes.
37:39Drives on Porzingis.
37:40Gets inside.
37:41Banks at home.
37:44Timeout Boston.
37:46Knicks back up by three.
37:48Cal Bridges put his foot on the gas.
38:03It started because Brunson was on the bench.
38:05And you've got to have somebody sustain your offense when he doesn't have the ball in his hands.
38:10Not a surprise that every one of his buckets in the fourth are that patented fadeaway jump shot.
38:16The mid-range, that is his go-to.
38:18He's either in the corner shooting threes or he's getting to that aspect.
38:266.32 remaining.
38:28Here are the fourth.
38:29Celtics trying to win another road game.
38:32Tie the series up at two apiece.
38:34The Knicks trying to get the first home win of the series.
38:37And take that 3-1 lead before the series goes back to Boston.
38:43And Ananobi, Robinson, Brunson.
38:46Bridges, who has not sat yet here in the second half, out there.
38:50It's Horford, Holiday, White, Porzingis, and Tatum.
38:54Right now, Jalen Brown on the bench with five fouls.
38:57Josh Hart on the bench with five.
38:58Holiday drives, double, Horford.
39:03McBride, guarding White, fights over a screen.
39:07Into the hands of Tatum.
39:09Tatum drives, gets inside.
39:11And Ananobi all over him.
39:12Tatum sneaks underneath.
39:13Count it, and a foul.
39:15Jason Tatum chants for a three-point play and to tie the game.
39:19Woo-hoo.
39:20That was tough.
39:21Let's see this handle here.
39:23Tatum taking his time in traffic.
39:26Let's see.
39:26Oh, well, it didn't get hit out of his hand.
39:30I think he lost the ball.
39:32That's a tough one.
39:34You can hear the crowd watch.
39:35Great defense by OG.
39:37Ball drops.
39:38I think that's a double dribble in my opinion.
39:40Because it wasn't hit out of his hand by somebody else.
39:44Tatum completes the three-point play.
39:46We're tied again.
39:47He's got 42.
39:55As we hit the halfway point here in the fourth quarter.
40:00Brunson fakes, drives, leans in.
40:03Lobs it out to Ananobi.
40:04Dangerous pass with Holiday lurking.
40:07Six on the shot clock.
40:08Ananobi a three-pointer.
40:09Puts it in!
40:10OG Ananobi with his fourth three-pointer.
40:15Knicks back up by three.
40:17Defend!
40:20Defend!
40:20Tatum calmly brings the ball up the floor.
40:23He's been in these kind of games for years now.
40:27Defend!
40:29Defend!
40:30Tatum against Brunson.
40:31Drives, pulls back.
40:33Brunson stays with him.
40:34Ball knocked loose.
40:35Tatum finds Holiday.
40:36Shot clock winding down.
40:37Holiday on the drive.
40:38Gets inside.
40:39And banks it in.
40:41Almost drew a foul as well.
40:43Holiday right place, right time.
40:45And I think Jason Tatum is searching for that jump shot a little too much.
40:49He's losing control of that ball.
40:50Get off of it.
40:51Get it back.
40:52Reset.
40:54Brunson against White.
40:56Hesitation.
40:56Flips it up in the left hand.
40:58Back shot's good.
40:5833 for Jalen Brunson.
41:04Brunson unstoppable.
41:06Tatum unguardable.
41:07Under five to play here in game four.
41:11Tatum again.
41:11Pulls up.
41:12Jump shot.
41:14Porzingis the rebound.
41:15But he's fouled on the floor.
41:19It's going to go against the Knicks.
41:24It's going to win the penalty.
41:25Yeah, jersey pull, I believe, Mike.
41:28It's OG trying to contend with a weak side.
41:32And he's just going to hold on to the jersey.
41:38Well, Zingas has always been a good free throw shooter throughout his career.
41:4183 percent.
41:46And comes up way short that time.
41:56This Madison Square Garden crowd didn't have a chance to cheer in the fourth quarter of game three.
42:03And the Celtics dominated.
42:05Misses both.
42:06Ananobi the rebound.
42:08They've got reason to cheer here in game four in the fourth.
42:11Holiday fighting over a screen.
42:17Brunson gets inside.
42:18Layup.
42:19Won't go.
42:20Rebound fourth quarter.
42:21Take it by Holiday.
42:26Horford to White.
42:27Corner three.
42:28Won't go as well.
42:29Bridges comes up to the rebound.
42:30Well, you were playing five on four and missed an opportunity.
42:33Brunson slowed across half court and come away empty.
42:36Brunson has Al Horford on him.
42:41Derek White looking to help.
42:45Shot clock down to seven.
42:48Brunson drives.
42:49Gets past Horford.
42:50Stops.
42:51Pulls up.
42:51Two-pointer.
42:52Got it!
42:54Five-point lead for the Knicks with under four to play.
42:57Brunson's got 35.
42:58Rebound.
43:03Pay them way outside.
43:05Too strong.
43:06Bridges the rebound.
43:11Brunson drives shut off by Holiday.
43:13Nearly lost it.
43:17Brunson calling for it again.
43:19Telling Robinson to go down.
43:22Ananobi sets the screen.
43:23He wanted to target Porzingis.
43:25Pass in the corner.
43:28Bridges off the bounce.
43:29Has to get it off.
43:30Puts it up.
43:31It's good!
43:32Mikel Bridges knocks it down.
43:34This is the largest lead of the series for the next timeout, Boston.
43:4023 for Bridges.
43:43The postseason clutch time has been a nightmare for the Boston Celtics.
43:48You know who it hasn't been a nightmare for?
43:50The New York Knickerbockers.
43:52Whether it's Mikel Bridges or the Clutch Player of the Year,
43:57who has been absolutely brilliant in the clutch,
44:00putting it to the Boston Celtics.
44:02Yeah!
44:08Yeah, we talked about it in the open.
44:09What's the job?
44:10To keep it close, have other people be able to get you in this spot,
44:14to get to Brunson.
44:16Either you are feeling pressure or you are applying pressure.
44:19And right now, the New York Knicks and Jalen Brunson
44:22are applying a lot of pressure on this Boston Celtics team,
44:27trying to put them in a position to be down 3-1.
44:31Celtics are bringing up still plenty of time.
44:35Knicks in the penalty already.
44:37Celtics have only two team fouls.
44:40Defense!
44:41Defense!
44:42Jalen Brown back in, lost the ball!
44:45Ananobi all by himself throws it down.
44:49And Tatum is hurt.
44:50Tatum is down.
44:52He wants a timeout.
44:54Tatum in so much pain.
44:58And the Celtics call timeout, grabbing that right ankle.
45:00And that's the final timeout for the Boston Celtics.
45:08But more importantly, Tatum really shake it up.
45:14That last sequence, turning the ankle.
45:18And you see the concern.
45:20Now Horford and the Celtics faces.
45:24He called a timeout there himself.
45:27He was calling the timeout.
45:2942 points for Tatum tonight.
45:32But right now, in a great deal of pain.
45:38Here's the injury, Richard.
45:40Well, it's very difficult.
45:41You never presume anything.
45:42But that step forward, that false step forward,
45:44and he goes down immediately.
45:46We don't know what it is.
45:47But when you see a player in this position,
45:50you know, we thought, because we didn't see the play,
45:51because we were looking at OG.
45:53Was it a rolled ankle?
45:54Was it a tweak of something?
45:55We're not sure.
45:56We're going to let the doctors figure that out.
45:59So Tatum hobbling back to the locker room,
46:01obviously couldn't put any weight at all on the right foot.
46:06Peyton Pritchard comes in.
46:09Under three to play.
46:11Nick's lead is now nine.
46:13Derek White to Brown.
46:14Brown lines up his three-pointer.
46:17Shot won't go.
46:17Rebound.
46:18Bridges.
46:19Bridges making play after play here in the second half.
46:26And Brunson calls out a plate.
46:28Pitchard right up into him.
46:31Again, the Celtics now out of timeouts.
46:33Obviously, they had to take that one.
46:34Brunson looking, step back, three-pointer.
46:39It's good.
46:40Rattled around and dropped through.
46:44Nick's up a dozen.
46:47Brunson with 38.
46:50Brown tries to answer.
46:51Can't get it to the fall.
46:53And Pritchard lost it out of bounds.
46:56Nick Ball.
46:57Clutch player of the year is just delivering shot after shot.
47:01At some point, the body blows.
47:03And you hit the mat.
47:05Jalen Brunson trying to put the Celtics to bed tonight.
47:10Coming up on two minutes remaining.
47:12Nick's look to take some time off the clock on each of these possessions
47:15with this 12-point lead.
47:17Brunson the drive.
47:18Inside Robinson.
47:19Knocked out of bounds.
47:21Still Nick Ball with nine to shoot.
47:24If you're Brunson, put that up on the rim.
47:27Because if you hand that off or drop that off to Mitchell Robinson,
47:30it could be two free throws.
47:31That could be a wasted possession.
47:33Put it up.
47:33Let the big fella go get an offensive rebound or go get it tipped up.
47:37Nick's have outscored the Celtics 65-42 here in the second half.
47:42Remember, the Celtics had a 14-point lead in the third.
47:45Turnover.
47:45Robinson handoff.
47:46Holliday with the steal.
47:47Still time remaining.
47:49Inside Brown.
47:49An easy layup and in.
47:52And it's cut to 10 with 149 remaining.
47:56White chasing.
48:00Here comes the double tee.
48:02That one deflected out of bounds.
48:04Nick still have two timeouts remaining.
48:08And Jason Tatum, you can see, distraught right now.
48:11As soon as we get an update, we'll pass it along.
48:19Hart and Towns come in.
48:22Mitchell Robinson and McBride.
48:23Robinson getting an ovation.
48:26Had a very big impact on this game.
48:28Deuce McBride hit a couple of threes.
48:38Brunson and Pritchard.
48:41Brunson on the drive.
48:42And an ovee.
48:43And an ovee gets inside and lays it up and in.
48:47It's back to a dozen with a minute and a half remaining.
48:49Pritchard launches a three-pointer.
48:55Back of the rim.
48:56Hart the rebound.
48:57And the fans starting to feel it here at the Garden.
49:02Brunson in the front court.
49:10Shot clock at eight.
49:12Brunson the drive.
49:13Stack that jumper.
49:15Won't go.
49:15Rebound Holliday.
49:16Knocked loose.
49:17Picked up by Horford.
49:18Stolen by Hart, but Horford gets it back.
49:22And Pritchard the drive.
49:23Coast to coast.
49:24Lays it up and in.
49:27Ten-point game.
49:28Under a minute remaining.
49:30Suffolk's really need to foul if they can't get a timeout.
49:33Makes it miss free throws.
49:36But they're not going to do it.
49:37And the crowd's starting to celebrate.
49:43Bridges can't get it.
49:45Towns the rebound.
49:46And called for a foul.
49:47With 38 seconds remaining.
49:50Five fouls on Towns.
49:52Nick's on the verge of what you could say is the biggest win in 25 years in this franchise.
50:05And this, of course, could change everything.
50:11Watch the right foot.
50:12And right away, he knew it.
50:14Couldn't put any pressure on it.
50:19Horford will go to the free throw line.
50:21Well, we saw in game three, after two heartbreaking losses, Joe Missoula's team came in here to Madison Square Garden and had a championship response with a blowout victory to get within 2-1.
50:36Well, the Knicks, with an emphatic response themselves in a game they trailed by 14 in the third quarter.
50:43Another big second half comeback in this series.
50:47And this will be the first home win after the road team won the first three.
50:52Towns finishing touches.
50:54This crowd is so ready to celebrate as Pritchard knocks down the three-pointer.
51:06That makes it a seven-point game.
51:08Hot in the front court, and now the Celtics fouling.
51:13Of course, the Knicks make these free throws.
51:14Game's over.
51:15They miss.
51:17Celtics would still lead a miracle.
51:20And again, no timeouts.
51:21Tom Pivotal, you'd never know if he's up by seven or down by seven.
51:25Well, because the starters are always going to be in the game, as they should in this moment, to clear it up.
51:30And that was only the first foul in the last two minutes.
51:32Don't forget, second game of our doubleheader, as Tom Pivotal will call timeout.
51:44Knicks on the verge of taking a 3-1 lead in the Eastern Conference semifinals.
51:53This will try and do what the Celtics have come up short on.
51:57They'll try and tie their series to two games apiece.
51:59That's the next game coming up on our doubleheader, Warriors and Timberwolves.
52:02Minnesota up two games to one.
52:05And then Steph Curry out.
52:07Celtics certainly hoping that Jason Tatum will not be out.
52:11Meanwhile, for Jalen Brunson, another playoff masterpiece.
52:16But he had plenty of help, Garz.
52:18He sure did.
52:19Mikael Bridges, something flips in the second half of games because he struggles in the first or he's not involved.
52:27And then all of a sudden, he puts his foot on the gas.
52:29He was brilliant when Jalen got his rest.
52:32That was impressive.
52:33You got three guys with double-digit field goals.
52:3611 field goals for Towns, 11 for Bridges, 14 for Brunson, and 8 for OG.
52:42That number against a great Celtic team to outscore them by that number is so impressive.
52:47Dangerous inbound.
52:51Knocked away by Brown.
52:53Brown back to Pritchard.
52:55Pritchard looking to get a three-pointer off.
52:57Does.
52:57Shot is up.
52:58No good.
52:58Rebound Brunson.
52:59And that will do it.
53:01Holford fouls Brunson with 10.1 seconds remaining.
53:04And now 19,000-plus are going to rise up and celebrate.
53:10These Knick fans went through a lot of difficult years.
53:15They've waited a long time for a night like this.
53:18But the series is not over by any stretch of the imagination.
53:21Not against this Celtic team that are going home.
53:24Obviously, such a key is the health of Jason Tatum.
53:28As Jalen Brunson getting the MVP chance, he is the number one reason why the Knicks have turned their franchise around.
53:38Has been magnificent in the playoffs last year and this year.
53:44And he has his team now one win away from getting in to the conference finals.
53:52Knicks have not been in the conference finals since 2000.
53:55Kyle Anthony Towns, a strong game, 23 points, 11 rebounds.
54:03Of course, Jason Tatum was brilliant tonight, had 42 points, 8 rebounds, steals, blocks, but not enough.
54:14Pritchard, a couple of fakes, can't get it to go, and now dribbling out.
54:19This series is now three games to one in favor of the New York Knicks.
54:25So many Knicks, former Knicks players, coaches, obviously, on to celebrate as the Boston Celtics have themselves one loss away from elimination.
54:40For stretching with this game is like a heavyweight fight.
54:48The Knicks and Celtics throwing roundhouse punches.
54:51But the fourth quarter, once again, for the third time in this series, belong to the Knicks.
54:56Yeah, and that's what we talked about in the open.
54:58You have such an elite late-game finisher.
55:01Everyone has to show up to put him in a position to get you over the top.
55:07And, yes, you had other contributions from people in the third quarter, in the second quarter.
55:12But it is impressive to watch this Knick team answer from last game.
55:16And Jalen Brunson right now with Lisa Salters.
55:19Jalen.
55:22Jalen, I'm going to get to your guys.
55:24OG, Cat, McHale, their performances.
55:26But I got to start with you.
55:27Just what changed with you when you came out of that locker room at halftime?
55:31I don't know.
55:33Just found a way to make plays and get us going.
55:38And we just got one more.
55:39Could you feel yourself taking over the game?
55:42No, I was just in the flow.
55:44I would just do whatever it took.
55:45I wasn't really thinking, trying to take over.
55:47I was just, whatever we got to do.
55:50Now your guys, Cat, OG, especially McHale, can you describe the impact that they had?
55:55I mean, they played phenomenal.
55:57Didn't quit, kept fighting, and that's what's most important.
56:01Whenever you get in the hole, you can't quit, and we showed that.
56:04Up 3-1 with a chance to close it out in Boston.
56:08How do you get that done?
56:10You got to focus.
56:11Focus.
56:11It's going to be a great place to play, great environment.
56:14You got to focus.
56:14That's a great team over there.
56:16Congrats on the win.
56:17Mike.
56:18All right, Lisa.
56:18Again, it shows you how the momentum can switch so quickly.
56:22After two wins for the Knicks to start, people are saying the Celtics might be in trouble.
56:27And then the Knicks getting blown out.
56:28They said, will the Knicks win another game?
56:31And then they come out and play maybe their best game of the season.
56:34But this is the key thing going forward.
56:36Jason Tatum, late in the fourth quarter, grabs that right foot.
56:41Could not put any weight on it.
56:42Carried off.
56:43And back to the locker room.
56:46Obviously still no update.
56:48But you could tell Tatum was in incredible pain after an incredible performance.
56:53There's another playoff gem for Jason Tatum.
56:56But it ends in agony.
56:58So now the Knicks up three games to one.
57:01Game five will be in Boston on Wednesday.
57:06Meanwhile, Indiana up three games to one.
57:09As that series goes back to Cleveland.
57:13Two emphatic responses from these two Eastern Conference Bowers.
57:17Celtics did it in game three.
57:18Knicks did it in game four.
57:19Now they have a commanding three games to one lead.
57:22Our producer, Tim Corrigan.
57:24Director, Mike Schwab.
57:25Of course, for Richard, Doris, and Lisa, and our standing crew.
57:30Coming up next, game four of the Western Conference semifinals.
