It was a win for the ages as the New York Knicks pulled off the biggest comeback in NBA Finals history. There were some questions surrounding Jalen Brunson heading into Game 4 as he struggled with his efficiency against a resolute Spurs defense.

The Knicks trailed by as many as 29 points before pulling off their memorable comeback. Brunson and Anunoby were the stars of the show as they combined to score 69 points in Game 4.

There were doubts on whether Brunson can lead the Knicks to a championship after getting knocked out in the Eastern Conference Finals last year.
