New York Knicks collapse again in crunch time

After the disaster in Game 1, the Knicks suffered another fourth-quarter meltdown in Game 2. With the score tied at 81 entering the final frame, New York allowed a 13-4 Indiana run that turned the tide.

Jalen Brunson tried to bring the Knicks back with a late 3-point attempt but missed it with seven seconds left.

Once again, New York’s late-game execution faltered, a sharp contrast to their earlier playoff rounds. Meanwhile, the Pacers remained composed and clutch, extending their series lead to 2-0.
