The New York Knicks made the Eastern Conference Semifinals an underdog story by winning an overtime stunner over the Boston Celtics in Game 1. Jalen Brunson and OG Anunoby each scored 29 points as Boston missed three after three, blowing a 20-point lead.
Game 2 at TD Garden figures to be a lot different. The Celtics will reset and refocus, even if they’re a little banged up. Big man Kristaps Porzingis is sick but expected to play. Shooter Sam Hauser, however, is banged up with a sprained ankle.
Game 1 gave the fans a classic.
