    It's just remarkable, yet expected.

    I never waned confidence. Even though it was 25-5 literally like 5 minutes in.

    This team has that ability to dig in and catch up on offense. They brought it within 3 at half. Our offense caught up but our defens still was lacking.

    What makes this team special, is it's ability to also dig in defensively.

    We came out in the second half with a determination and fervor. We held them to 13 in the 3rd while scoring 37 ourselves.

    How many teams, other than golden state, can go down by more than 20 and end up being up by 20 before it's over?

    I know the competition was thin, but it just shows the teams fight, competitiveness and will to win.

    Fun game to go to. You could hear a pin drop during that first quarter haha.

    When you swept your opponent 11 out of previous 13 seasons, you should have confidence to win at last no matter how deep of the hole is ;)

    Yeah Beasley wasn't going to sustain that offense for more than the first quarter anyway

    That first quarter was frigid. Would be keen to see a stat for the biggest point swings in a game, all time.

    There was a point from late-1st and early-4th where the Rockets outscored them 88-42.

    It was a good comeback, but let's not get carried away. After all, it was the Knicks, who we basically own.

    And they were missing their superstar, and also Porzingis.
