Look at Mikal Bridges again! I’ll be honest, I had Celtics in 5, tops. The Knicks going into Boston and coming back from double-digit deficits against the defending champs TWICE is damn impressive. These playoffs have been incredible so far – 9:25 PM

New York steals (Mikal Bridges literally) Game 1 from Boston in overtime thriller
The Celtics took 60 3-pointers and missed a playoff record 45 of them. Meanwhile, the Knicks were again the picture of resilience, with 29 each from Brunson and OG.

Fantastic Game 1. Jalen Brunson and OG Anunoby were great, and Mikal Bridges made some huge plays in OT despite a poor shooting night. Knicks really couldn’t afford to lose The One Where The Celtics Shoot 25% From 3, but we’ve got a series! – 9:51 PM

Mikal Bridges with an unbelievable defensive play to win the game for the Knicks. Just tore the basketball away from Jaylen Brown and the Knicks with nothing short of a miraculous Game 1 win in Boston, coming bak from down 20 to win 108-105 in OT. – 9:50 PM

Jayson Tatum misses the potential go-ahead shot. Good track in the air by Mikal Bridges to force the ball loose as the rebound trickles to Deuce McBride.
Knicks will have the ball coming out of the timeout.
Game tied at 100, 5.5 seconds to go. – 9:32 PM
