Boston trail 0-2 but still believe in bouncing back

BOSTON - The New York Knicks rallied again from 20 points down to snatch a 91-90 victory over the Boston Celtics on May 7 and take a 2-0 lead over the defending National Basketball Association (NBA) champions in their Eastern Conference semi-final play-off series.

After rallying from 20 down in a gritty overtime triumph in Game 1, the Knicks authored another epic comeback.

Mikal Bridges scored all 14 of his points in the fourth quarter for the Knicks and came up with a steal as Boston's Jayson Tatum drove for a potential game-winning basket in the waning seconds at TD Garden.

It was Bridges' second victory-sealing steal in as many games, and he credited his teammates with keeping him going when he was struggling.

"It's really truly them, just holding me together and keeping me mentally right and just telling me to keep going," he said.

Josh Hart led the Knicks with 23 points and Karl-Anthony Towns added 21 points and 17 rebounds.
