Celtics vs. Knick's number of points: Jalen Brunson is scary a similar game 2 comeback, Boston blows 20 points again lead

It was Déjà Vu in Boston on Wednesday evening. The New York Knicks in their playoff series in the second round against the Boston Celtics are unlikely after another 20-point comeback in game 2. Mikal Bridges blocked Jayson Tatum in the last possession of the game to achieve the Knick a 91:90 victory.

This is the first time in the NBA history that a team came back in two consecutive playoff games of 20 points.

Bridges did not score in the first three quarters of the game and scored 14 points in the last framework before the big stop followed two free throws by Jalen Brunson.

New York exceeded Boston in the fourth 30-17 and ended the game with a 23: 6 run to complete her second incredible comeback victory on the street. The Knicks also dropped by 20 in the second half before they came back in game 1 for an overtime win.

“We just never stopped. We really play to the last horn. We leave everything on the pitch and leave the result what it is,” Karl-Anthony Towns told reporters after game 2.

In a breathtaking trend, the home teams do not have to win a playoff game in the second round. All higher seeds, they are now 0-6 after the loss of the Celtics.

Brunson had no particularly efficient night-17 points (6-19 FG, 2-9 3PT, 3-4 ft) and seven templates in 38 minutes, apart from Karl-Anthony Towns (21 points in 9- against 16 shooting) and Josh Hart (23 points at 9-to-15 shooting), almost nobody for New York. The Knicks won this game ugly.

The Celtics shot 34 for 94 (36.2%) as a team, including 10 for 40 (25%) from a 3-point range. They won the possession, but it didn't matter because they (again) shot so terribly. Boston has combined a record 75 through the two games of this series.

Jayson Tatum ended with only 13 points and fought his way around the track. He was still 18 seconds, but otherwise he had difficult to achieve. The Celtics star has only six points in the fourth quarter through two games and is in the last framework 0: 7 to 3 pointers. Derrick White and Jaylen Brown both scored 20 points to run Boston.

Game 3 is Saturday in Madison Square Garden.
