BOSTON \u2014 Karl-Anthony Towns shared a brief memory on Tuesday morning looking back at the Knicks\u2019 stunning upset series win over the defending champion Celtics in May.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cBeing tired,\u201d Towns said. \u201cReally tired.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cBut it was fun to see our team through all the adversity and everything being said about us and the series to come out here and play good basketball and give ourselves a chance to win, we didn\u2019t do it early on in every game, but we found a way at the end to come out with the win and just remember our whole team being special when we needed to be special.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The loss left Boston devastated and uncertain about the team\u2019s future. The Celtics went on to lose or trade much of their championship core across the following months, and the hierarchy atop the east transformed. When Boston returned to Madison Square Garden earlier this season, where they lost Game 6 119-81, they suffered the franchise\u2019s worst defeat ever in a 42-14 second quarter. The Knicks resembled the class of the East, while the Celtics fell to 0-3 in Detroit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

New York\u2019s players saw the victory as evidence of their perseverance, but the Pacers dulled that triumph by stunning them in a Game 1 classic before winning the Eastern Conference Finals in six games. The Knicks decided to part ways with Tom Thibodeau and make minor roster tweaks, trying to build on what they achieved in the second round with a fresh coaching perspective from Mike Brown. They won four games in a row entering Boston on Tuesday after a 9-6 start, and trail an ascending Detroit team. So they\u2019ve hardly separated themselves as the East\u2019s best.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cThrough a new system, a new coach,\u201d Mikal Bridges said. \u201cI know fans and stuff, and I\u2019m not saying all, because I know a lot understand what a new system, a new coach does for players and how difficult it can be to try and learn, especially off past success, it\u2019s different. It\u2019s gonna take some time. I think we\u2019re learning, not paying attention to what others think and knowing that being here every single day \u2026 it\u2019s gonna take growth.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

That process began with overcoming what looked like an insurmountable matchup with the Celtics last year, who swept them in the season series with three double-digit wins to begin the year before escaping New York in overtime in the finale. Boston built a 16-point halftime edge in Game 1, but Kristaps Porzi\u0146\u0123is didn\u2019t return for the second half, the beginning of a battle with the POTS condition that carried into this season in Atlanta.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

New York came back and stole the opener on a last-second steal by Bridges in overtime that he repeated to cap a 20-point second half turnaround in Game 2. He scored all 14 of his points in the fourth quarter, ingratiating himself to Knicks fans after an uneven start to his tenure with the team.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cGood memories and bad memories,\u201d Bridges said looking back. \u201cWhen they kicked our ass the first game of the season, and then obviously winning, but whole new year.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

For the Celtics, who bounced back in Game 3, the fallout continued into a double-digit Game 4 collapse where Jayson Tatum tore his Achilles. That further altered the 2025-26 season, which Tatum will miss most if not all of, and Al Horford reportedly departed the Celtics in part due to the injury. Boston shed most of their luxury tax commitment and dodged the second apron, setting up a reset season where they\u2019ve floated around .500.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Bridges and others around the league haven\u2019t counted out the Celtics yet, though. He credited Joe Mazzulla for instilling a mental toughness in the team, who reached within single-digits late after trailing by 24 points in New York. They\u2019ve won 11-of-18 since, and only sit 2.5 games behind the Knicks in a loaded east. With Indiana, Boston and others hurting or resetting through the first quarter of the season, New York earned a golden opportunity to reach the Finals for the first time since 1999. And the Celtics continue to grapple with the chance they lost in the spring to become a dynasty.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cThat wasn\u2019t our strategy. We didn\u2019t big brain that game,\u201d Towns joked about the comebacks. \u201cGame 1 showed all the improvements we\u2019ve made not only as players, physical talents, but also mentally. I felt last year, we were such a mentally tough team that nothing bothered us or wavered us and a 20-point deficit against the champs and being in their home, that didn\u2019t matter to us. We keep fighting \u2026 until the horn goes off and we just kept fighting and kept fighting, and we found ourselves with the horn going off with the win and Mikal got an amazing steal. Didn\u2019t expect Game 2 to be deja vu, but it was. It just shows again, if you doubted us Game 1, we showed what we can do in Game 2 in the same situation \u2026 it just shows the mental fortitude of last year\u2019s team.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
