The Eastern Conference Final G3 shocked reversal: New York, which was forced to the dead end, used a 20-point reversal to tear apart the doubts
5:27am, 27 May 2025【Basketball】
A game that seemed to be about to fall into the abyss, but at the most unlikely time point, the script underwent a shocking reversal. The Pacers played unscrupulously at home, but the Knicks suddenly broke out after being "silenced" for three quarters and completed a 20-point comeback in one fell swoop.
This is not a miracle, but a test of blood and fire brought by the third game of the Eastern Conference Finals. The whole game is like a suspense blockbuster. The first half of the plot is heavy, but the ending makes people cry.
No one expected that New York could reverse the situation in such a desperate situation, especially when Brunson was troubled by a foul and Towns was invisible for a continuous period of time, it almost made people give up hope. But at the most dangerous moment, the soft man becomes a powerful general, and hope is rekindled in the trough. New York is not about luck, but about stubbornness that grits teeth and refuses to give in.
Shortly after the opening, New York showed signs of exhaustion. **Brunson is still the only solution to the attack, but the opponent has already had insight into everything. Although the score was double-digit in the first quarter, the score was only 2 goals in the sports game, which was all supported by free throws. **The Pacers no longer concealed their strong attack on Brunson from the second quarter, and pressed the defense and the roster to go hand in hand, pushing the team's brain to the edge of the cliff.
What's worse is that Brunson's fouls quickly filled up to four times, and the second half was almost blocked by half before the second half.
Downs, who should have stood up to take over the game, made two moves in the first quarter, but failed to score a single point. It seemed that he had not helped, but became an invisible person. Throughout the first half, his presence was negligible, and even in the eyes of his opponent, this "second leader" was just a decoration. The
bench made even worse. Hart's substitute did not bring any positive changes. McBride received three fouls in 70 seconds of playing, almost destroying Thibodeau's dispatch plan.
When time comes to the end of the third quarter, most people no longer expect miracles to happen. The Knicks were 20 points behind in the third quarter and almost stepped on the threshold of the series out with one foot.
But at this moment, the ruthlessness hidden in the bones in New York exploded. Anunobi became the spark to ignite the counterattack, making 4 three-pointers in three quarters, so that the score would not collapse further. He is not a star-level scorer, but he takes responsibility when others are abnormal. The Pacers may have relaxed their vigilance. They may think the game has been finalized, but Towns used one ball to turn the whole game upside down.
** At the beginning of the final quarter, Towns hit a three-pointer, and then made continuous strong attacks in the inside, and the referee's whistle also changed direction. **He, who had almost never stood on the free throw line in the first three quarters, suddenly got a series of opportunities to go to the free throw line. It was not that the referee was biased, but that he finally played the aggressiveness he deserved. In just a few minutes, Towns scored 20 points in a row, leaving all the doubts accumulated before. He was originally dragging his feet and turned into a savior.
When Brunson was still sitting on the bench and did not dare to act rashly, New York did not attack as before. Towns alone held up the entire team, forcibly tied the score, and even overtook it. By the time Brunson returned to the field, the Knicks were already the leading side.
This victory is not only a score back, but also a psychological counterattack. The Pacer, who was originally as powerful as a rainbow, was completely stunned by this reversal. No one would have thought that Towns, who performed so sluggishly in the first three quarters, could spend one quarter to complete a "change of the heart" and reshape the team's beliefs.
In past series, New York has twice completed a 20-point comeback against the Celtics. And today, they copied such a drama to the Eastern Conference Finals. Although this team is troubled by injuries and rotation, they never bow their heads in desperate situations. Although the Pacers' defense line was tight for a while, their laxity and ineffective rotation at critical moments, coupled with their underestimation of their opponents' willpower, they completely lost this victory that was already within reach.
The Knicks won not only one game, but also won the psychological advantage of the series. Standing up in the shadow of a losing streak and walking back from the brink of failure, New York used this battle to tell everyone: they did not rely on luck to support the Eastern Conference Final.
Brunson is still the protagonist, Towns' turnaround plot is exciting, and Anunobi's persistence is worthy of admiration. Every highlight of the Knicks game is the best interpretation of team spirit. After
G3, the series regained suspense, and the Knicks regained the initiative. They responded to all doubts with a big reversal and proved with actions that they can not only fight, but also win.
