Knicks take 3-0 ECF lead, one win from NBA Finals

sportsMay 24, 202618580

The New York Knicks beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 121-108 in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals, taking a 3-0 series lead and moving one win away from their first NBA Finals appearance since 1999. Mikal Bridges, WHO earlier this postseason nearly lost his starting spot, has re-emerged as a two-way catalyst for New York and punctuated the victory with an energetic on-court celebration. Cleveland now faces elimination in Game 4, and a Knicks win Monday would sweep their second straight series and send New York to the NBA Finals.

The Knicks took a commanding 3-0 series lead over the Cavs — and are just one win from their first NBA Finals trip in nearly 27 years. www.nytimes.com/athletic/730...

The New York Knicks are about to be one win away from their first NBA Finals this century, this is a totally normal thing that happens all the time and I'm feeling very normal about it.

This would be the Knicks first trip back to the NBA Finals since facing the Sacramento Kings in 2003.

Bizarre the NBA Finals is going to be the best team in the league vs 7th best team in the league.

Mikal Bridges scored 20 or more points twice between the All-Star break and Game 5 of the first round against Atlanta. He's now scored 20-plus three times in the past eight games. What a turnaround for a pretty fascinating Knick. yhoo.it/43rEsCu

Sorry about crashing out... again. It's just so surreal the Jalen Brunson KAT led Knicks are making the NBA Finals. Like... No fucking way.... The IT-Horford Celtics were a better version of this team and couldnt get there. What are we watching!??

New York Knicks vs. San Antonio Spurs in NBA Live 99 for Nintendo 64. The Knicks are one win away from their first NBA Finals since 1999. The Spurs have a tougher road to make the rematch happen, but it's still possible. Also note the network branding NBA Live had back then.
