For three quarters, both Karl-Anthony Towns and the Knicks looked lost.
Then, Towns couldn’t have been more locked in – and delivered an all-time performance to save New York’s season.

This feels like the sort of game that convinces the Knicks to trade Karl-Anthony Towns for Kevin Durant. – 9:07 PM

Here’s how aggressively Tyrese Haliburton has switch-hunted this postseason: the three defenders against whom he has attempted the most shots, according to NBA.com tracking data, are all bigs: Jarrett Allen (20), Bobby Portis (20) and Karl-Anthony Towns (13). pic.x.com/eqDxmY7Efc – 8:46 AM

Ian Begley: Karl-Anthony Towns’ 20 points in 4th Q help lift NYK to remarkable comeback Game 3 win vs. Indiana. Knicks trailed by 20 in the first half and 15 with 3:11 to go in third quarter.
