Summary

The Knicks stunned Madison Square Garden with a comeback that instantly entered franchise history, rallying from 22 points down in the fourth quarter to steal Game 1 from Cleveland. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to the chaos, the energy inside the building, and the brilliance of Jalen Brunson leading a comeback that had even loyal fans believing the game was already over. The guys relive the defining moments from the final minutes, including Landry Shamet’s improbable three, Mikal Bridges’ clutch shooting, and the Cavaliers’ collapse under pressure. They also discuss fans admitting they shut the game off too early, the emotional swing inside the Garden, and why this Knicks team feels different from past playoff runs.
