“Knicks fans represent what being a sports fan kind of is,” @derekfisher said.
“I think a lot of the players on this team are representative of that energy."
The @nyknicks won 105-104 in Game 2 of the NBA Finals.

Mike Brown tells a story about how Andre Iguodala backed him up in the Warriors' huddle during a playoff game in 2017 when Brown took over as the team's acting coach for Steve Kerr 😂
THE COMEBACK KNICKS 🔥
The Knicks trailed by as many as 14 points in their Game 1 win and as many as 12 in Game 2 👀
This is the first time a team has recorded double-digit comebacks in each of the first 2 games of a Finals since 1975.
The soul of the 70s Knicks
Won it all twice
Best Game 7 ever
The heart of the 90s Knicks
Couldn't win it all
Worst Game 7 ever
Both traded
Past their primes
Team moved on
Both came back
Decades of darkness
Never left
Both literally bleed orange & blue
This is for them
"I love my country music. That's all I listen to. Dealing with these guys, they don't listen to it. That's why I got my headphones now. Maybe if they listened to it too they would understand, but they're silly" 😂

Knicks v Spurs bringing drama to our newsroom. Will @Boris_Sanchez,
Shimon and I still be friends after this live shot? Here’s hoping.
And meet Knicks super fan George. Who would do “anything” to get a ticket to game two of the NBA Finals.
Underrated moment in that chaos: Great challenge by Jordan Brink on the original OG Anunoby no-call. Call got reversed and it led to three free throws in a one-point win.
