New York Knicks complete 20-point comeback against Indiana Pacers to take Game 3 in ‘unpredictable’ Eastern Conference Finals
CNN
Trailing by as many as 20 points in the second quarter, the New York Knicks were able to rally for a 106-100 Game 3 victory over the Indiana Pacers behind an inspired Karl-Anthony Towns, cutting the series deficit to 2-1.
The theme of the Eastern Conference Finals so far has been comebacks and that continued on Sunday night in Indiana. After the Indiana Pacers’ miraculous Game 1 comeback, Game 3 of the best-of-seven series saw the New York Knicks produce their own dramatic ending on the road at a raucous Gainbridge Fieldhouse. The Knicks trailed by as many as 20 points during the second quarter but, largely thanks to an inspired fourth-quarter performance from Karl-Anthony Towns, New York was able to rally for a 106-100 victory and cut the series deficit to 2-1. “It’s a true test when you’re down 20-plus,” Towns – who finished with 24 points and 15 rebounds on the night – told reporters afterwards. “Tonight was the kind of night where we had to have that never-say-die attitude.” Having left New York with two road victories and a firm grip on the series, Indiana returned home full of confidence and a pep in their step. And they took that momentum into Game 3, racing ahead while the Knicks looked like they were still on the plane.
