That was a crazy shot by RJ and an amazing comeback! I'm shocked!!!

Knicks and Celts played 2 all time classic games this season on national tv

With out a doubt this was the best game in this FO era

25 point come back with a game winning shot

We haven’t gotten the bounces this season so nice to finally get one. Maybe they start going our way a bit now.

If that shot wasn’t vengeance, I don’t know what is or was.

Crazy stat.

This is what feeling good feels like.

I think Fournier may have just stolen Bucky Dent’s middle name.

If he has a good game, it means he;s only turning it on when were playing Boston. So bench his ass. Indefinitely.

During game 1 against Boston he played 42 minutes.

During game 2 against Boston he played 44 minutes.

And I really couldn't care less how he combined for 64 points off of 26/49 from the field (.530%) because...

A.) Our Defense allowed 248 points combined.

B.) Jaylen Brown went off on his ass during game #1 for 46 points and 9 assists (used and abused Evan Fournier while R.J. Barrett completely eliminated Jaysom Tatum and helf him to 7/30 from the field).

C.) Even on rare occasional nights where Evan Fournier actually plays good on Offense? It's a moot point because he gets used and abused on Defense.

42 minutes and 44 minutes? That's insane. Hopefully he gets no more than 20 minutes tonight.

I'll eat my EF crow tonight.

Evan Fournier =
41 BIG TIME Minutes.
41 POINTS!
8 Rebounds?!?
2 Assists.
1 Steal.
FG = 15/25.
3PT = 10/14 @ .714%?!?
Game High +/- of +18?!?!?

After his performance tonight?

I think I'm going to leave Evan Fournier alone as my NY whipping boy (and give him a shot moving forward) because if he can somehow pull off a postseason playoffs performance similar to tonight's? He'll become one of our fan favorites.

I think it could be all mental for Evan Fournier. Because something about playing against his former Boston team just simply puts him into a MENTAL ZONE where he's locked in, fully focused and shoots with NO FEAR.

NUTS.

Can someone explain why Fournier only plays well against the Celtics? Is the guy not motivated to play against anyone else?

Felt like a freaking playoff game.

Towards the end of the game I started feeling weak. This game was too intense for me.

JesseDark @ 1/6/2022 10:24 PM
glad they pulled it out, but gotta give props to their center Robert Williams, he played a good game.
JesseDark @ 1/6/2022 10:38 PM
Damn next game against Celtics too. We gotta come out with energy to start game.

The best game of the year by far. Even better than the first Celtics game, which was also a great game. Knicks to start the march back into the top 6 of the East.
fitzfarm @ 1/6/2022 10:56 PM
Best win of the year !!! RJ needed that one, hopefully he goes on a roll… EF pretend you play the C’s every night!!

Yeah it seemed like forever since we last had a buzzer beater. Teams are always having those against us

It’s a phenomenon that’s everywhere in pro sports.

Games like this with a packed rocking crowd in the garden, celebrities, nationally televised — maybe Silver wakes up and realizes he needs to start orchaestrating a superstar to come here in the next couple years instead of everyone going to LA
