[Highlight] Knicks complete 29-point comeback, the largest in NBA finals history!
HOW THE FUCK
Because the Spurs don’t run an actual offense
Spurs woulda won just taking 24 second violations all half
Instead they just kept chucking 3s lmao
We 28-3 this shit
Whoever is a Spurs/Falcons fan I’m so sorry
Samuel L Jackson lol
IM TIRED OF THESE MOTHERFUCKING BLOWN LEADS
Emphasize on the L
Johnson deserves so much flak for this.
There is a lot of blame to go around for this, but coaching is probably the biggest issue this game.
This series coaching is hot garbage this series
They would’ve won if Mitch Johnson was ready for this moment, but he clearly isn’t.
He was terrible but the players also made some terrible decisions. What was Fox thinking at the end?
*what was Fox thinking all game
Dude’s all smiles even after a costly turnover in the closing minutes of the third. Someone tip the FBI for his bumass
Wanted to be the hero
100% on the coaching - all they had to do was slow the game down and settle down on defense.
He doesn’t actually run plays other than the same simple shit every time
Knicks were in the penalty early. They could have drove and gotten free throws
Mitch was like “aight guys, just keep putting up those 3s, they gotta go our way again soon right?”
They would’ve won if Fox just held the ball instead of trying a fuckin lay up
Yup almost as boneheaded as JR smiths error. Almost
I was screaming at the TV so much. Use the whole clock. It’s not complicated.
It’s the 4th game I’ve been saying this.
Not only do they not use clock, they just does nothing. Every time they have a chance to put the previous games away, they just take a bad shot and let the Knicks get back in.
Mitch Johnson blows. They have the tallest asset and 4 supreme athletes. Somehow they can’t get simple inbounding the ball right.
This is exactly what I was saying. Like all they had to do was to set up normal plays, which would eat up the shot clock maybe shoot at the 21st or 22nd mark. That is it. Not pull up and shoot threes. Truly infuriating, the players have a lot to blame for this, but I blame the coach as well.
Nah literally! That shit was horrible. You don’t even have to play well to not lose a 30-point lead. Like you said, just eat up the shot clock, even miss if you want, and the Knicks literally won’t have enough possessions to even come back. Horrible coaching and horrible basketball. OG been killing them all series and you decide not to even guard him on the inbound. Unbelievable. They deserved this loss. Knicks deserve their championship. Congrats NY.
WTH was that all about? Non stop 3s. It’s a maturity thing. And then fox goes up for layup. They deserved to lose playing like that.
CONCRETE JUNGLE WHERE DREAMS ARE MADE OF
THERES NOTHING YOU CANT DO
Wet dream tomatooooo
WET DREAM TOMATO
How the Fox happened
I swear, he better be gone. He may have won them last game but that’s literally it. Hes been horrible.
Like watching the Warriors lose a game and not giving Curry the ball in the clutch, mitch Johnson is insane
WE ARE THE NEW YORK KNICKS
The biggest choke job in NBA history.
Fox had the ball with an open net. Could have run the clock. Hit the layup. Doesn’t do either. Loses game.
Well he tried for the layup, but he has to see freaking OG chasing him down. Just dribble to the corner.
Seriously, he just saw Hart miss earlier and he tried it??
Run out the clock!
This complete idiocy wasn’t covered by the TV unit. They never showed the block or discussed how truly dumb Fox was in that moment when he could have drawn a foul or pulled the ball out
This needs to be more visable. It was inexplicable to not even mention/show this on the telecast. As bad a choke job on their part as the Spurs.
He could’ve run off 3 seconds before getting fouled and then shot free throws
If he just stood there and did nothing don’t they have to foul him and he should get at least 1, likely 2 points?
Yeah, he really made a bit of a boneheaded play. You have to be 100% you are safe from a block if you are going for a layup there. He could have done nothing and it would have been a better play. This is now the second game where the Spurs have seriously lacked composure in the final seconds.
Yeah came to the comments for this. I had to go back and rewind it after the game just to see if maybe i missed something because the broadcast didnt mention it at all.
If fox dribbles it out, he is shooting 2, with under 10 seconds left and up 1
Spurs are finished
that was unbelievable. i think they will be emotionally finished after this. A 29 point lead in the Finals and you LOSE? That is simply unbelievable to think about
They’re shaken to the core. Nobody wanted that ball in the 4th
Coach didnt even want to call a timeout to call a play. Everyone was rattled and had zero confidence
Castle seemed like the only guy who wanted the ball
Yeah, same thing with the Cavs choking a huge lead in Game 1 of ECF, and they never fully recovered from that. It’s over.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the Spurs are finished after this bad of a loss and Knicks win Game 5 by 30 or so.
Yea there’s simply no way you come back from that.
This is too mentally devastating to overcome. Similar to what happened to the Cavs after game 1.
Maybe the Spurs win game 5, but I doubt they win game 6 in MSG.
Cue LeBron’s “THEY FUCKED UP MENTALLY” they really are done
EVER
Top 5 choke in sports history.
Largest blown lead in finals history
That is Atlanta Falcons esque of a choke.
Honestly one of the biggest choke jobs in sports history
Never seen a dumber team in my life
They remembered they’re a bunch of 20 something Olds at the worst possible time
They gonna release Fox tn 😭
Dude, fire him into the sun. Dumbest play since JR’s rebound
How do you not just hold onto the ball??
please someone tell me what he was thinking
that’s the thing, he wasn’t
Hero ball mentality all game
Selfishly
Legitimately basketball terrorism. Why are you going up against OG Anunoby for a layup when you have the LEAD AND THE BALL??? Just hold the ball and get to the free throw line. Generational bad play from him
Even better he had one man on him…run away for 5 seconds.
Exactly, loop back out to the 3 point line. Burn clock and make them foul you! Instead he takes a terrible layup, and then also lets OG get a free run to the hoop on the game winner.
Dumbest play since Hart smoked the layup, hes so lucky they won
Wemby missing those 2 FTs
Hart blowing a wide open layup
Tons of bad plays this game all around
Yeah, Wemby was ass at the end too.
Fox play was in another level though
He just had to take the foul but knowing him he’d choke the 2 ft’s anyways
That’s why he wanted the layup lol
Release him on the streets of New York 😭
So he can get worshipped for his late game heroics?
Open net up 1 with less then 24 seconds. He had so many ways to win the game. Did none of them.
Had so many dumb turnovers too like he dont give a fuck
Largest lead ever overcome in an NBA finals, New York may burn more from this than a loss lmao
One of the most memorable games I’ve ever watched and I’ve been watching the NBA for over 40 years.
I’m in the UK and this was the first NBA game I’ve ever watched live lol
Oh your hooked. This is how they get ya
I used to play the old 2Ks and always had a passing interest, then for some reason the finals were all over my algorithm this week and I couldn’t sleep so I threw it on. Guess I’m a Knicks fan now.
Get ready to complain about the refs every single night.
I am actually concerned there will be no more New York City after this game
I’m looking out the window right now and it’s gone
Can confirm, I am in queens and I have disappeared
I want to see the city explode so I’ve been going for them this series.
is there something in wemby’s head? someone should check
Give FMVP to the fans waving in his face during the free throws
WE ARE SO FUCKING BACK
All time choke job
The San Antonio Falcons
Spurs should hire Dan Quinn
It’s not even nfl season, how am I still catching strays
Tonight is an all time sports game. Holy shit.
OG is the goat
That block and tip. Winning player!
They’re probably already building a statue of that tip-in in the middle of Times Square
Automatic Anunoby
#OGUGWA
No way that happened lmao.
Spurs need to sit in the Corner lol
They did
This is actually insane
The trump curse met its match: spurs with a lead
Knicks found the way to make sure we never win again. Just let us start strong but like, for longer
What do the Spurs offensive gameplans look like? Just curious
Castle was open going back door. Could have scored off of a good pass. But it looks like Towns tipped it?
Yup. Towns tipped it.
Clock should have started as soon as Towns touched it.
I don’t think the clock operator/the refs noticed, which I can’t blame them considering I had no idea until two hours afterward
Play well for one half and then chuck up threes for the next
To be fair that shot like over 50 from three in the first half, they had been shooting them all game, they just stopped falling
It involves blowing a 29 point lead where their players just pull up and start chucking threes instead of eating the clock.
Holy shit what a game. OG Can have my kids
I AM PREGNANT WITH OG’s KIDS 🫃
Fuckin love OG
Mitch Johnson all time throw
Popovich sitting in purgatory right now I feel so bad
this game either kills him or brings him out of retirement
I feel sick for spurs fans 💀
You have no idea big dog 💀
It’s so blessed watching games like this as a neutral fan I’m sorry for you brother
Fuck em
Lmao only reason they’re here is because of insane lottery luck 3 years in a row f em is righr
I also share this sentiment
Down 15 going to the 4th, I know Brunson got us.
Down 15 with like 7 minutes left in the 4th lmao
They’ve got 5 rings since 99. Don’t
Don’t feel too bad, they’re going to be challenging for a long ass time
That’s what we said in 2012 then we never made it back to the finals with that squad. Just sayin.
Nah fuck them they spoke so much trash
Fuck em bro
Fuck the spurs
Fuck them. They’ve been handed everything on a silver platter by the NBA.
This game really showed the Spurs’ youth and inexperience. More seasoned teams would have slowed the tempo down, not tried as many quick 3s. Might be the Knicks series.
They played exactly how the Knicks wanted them to play all second half.
Might be? This is done. Time to head home, get some love, and call it a year.
The insane thing is that the guy to blame is Fox, who is a supposed vet
I dont care if you have played 10 years. If like 7 of those were meaningless basketball and the playoff runs aren’t even to the conf finals, you are not a veteran in these moments. The amount of rookie mistakes he made today… moment was too big
OG is one of the only players in this finals with a ring and he was by far the most composed player. Massive 3s during the comeback, huge defensive plays, and a dagger tip-in to end the game.
Really shows the importance of experience.
Fox gotta be feeling like the dumbest mfer rn
Nah, dumb people usually don’t realize they’re dumb
Spurs deserves all the talk coming their way
They deserve to lose this series. This game was theirs to lose and boy did they fucking lose it. Lookin like the monstars stole their talent in the locker room at halftime.
Someone get the receipts from all the comments at halftime
I for one told a Knicks fan I didn’t feel safe. Hate being right.
if i’m the spurs, there is no way I’m letting mitch johnson coach my superstar next year
I’m not letting Mitch Johnson coach next game. A magic eightball would have done better.
Bring Pop Back
Pop might have had a heart attack watching that 2nd half
Spurs dont deserve to win this series after that.
Choking a 29 point lead should count for 2 loses atp
Don’t worry. They won’t.
WHAT THE FUCK DID I JUST WITNESS
Apparently, we all witnessed a top 5? choke job all time
Top 5 for sports in general, though while it may be obvious recency bias, I can’t think of a worse one in the NBA.
Biggest choke in NBA history
Biggest comeback in finals history. This is the worst basketball choke in living memory. At least Houston wasn’t up by 29 when they missed 27 in a row in the WCF. (and they were missing Chris Paul)
You’re really touching 28-3 territory with this game. Like that’s how bad this choke truly was.
OG deserves the MVP
OG has earned every right to the FMVP so far - incredible performance
THIS IS WORSE THAN THE ROCKETS MISSING 27 STRAIGHT 3s
Man I was having a good day watching the Spurs lose, why you gotta bring that memory up
GLORIOUS HATE WATCH FRIEND, GLORIOUS
Fox cannot board the plane back to San Antonio
Knicks will bring him on theirs.
I think this is the biggest choke job I have ever seen in my decades of sports watching.
This or the Pats-Falcons for sure. Literally they could have dribbled out every single possession and chucked a prayer 3 and gotten a better result up 29.
Up 20 with 8 minutes to play…24 seconds plus rebound time per possession…that would literally work better than whatever the hell that non-coach just did
Watching this choke was painful
You could feel it the whole second half… the Knicks were just chipping away the whole time
But as soon as Brunson missed the shot I thought it was over then OG came flying in…. What the hell was this game
That OG putback needs to be a poster. Insanely clutch
It felt like eating a very dry burger with no drink
Wemby: I’m never gonna live down that pass in game 2. Fox: I have an idea.
fox is about to get burnt on the cross
This game made me mad and I’m not a fan of either team. Unbelievable choke job.
Make Fox walk home bruh Holy fuck the dude is absolute shit
What a game.
Fox lost this on his own, and magnet ball from Knicks.
Like Wemby wasn’t hot ass? Thought he was in their heads?
14 and 16 points quarters. Generational bottle job.
LMFAO WHOS IN WHOS HEAD WEMBY
Everyone saying tonight all night “imagine paying $20,000 to watch this game?” That sounds like a discount now!!
Biggest choke ever. Leave Fox and Mitch in New York
They knew what they were doing by bringing in Taylor Swift and Wu-Tang 😂
There’s about 600 posts on this sub that aged really poorly 😂 Jesus Christ, that was fucking crazy.
OG YOU ARE A HERO
unbelievable. I have never seen a momentum swing like that.
trade foxx
HOLY SHIT WHAT A COLLAPSE
I love basketball! I hate r/nba
Fox had one of the dumbest plays I have ever watched. What a choke job by the spurs
Tried to flop at the end too
