We’re heading back to the “Lone Star State” as the San Antonio Spurs host the New York Knicks in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

Wow. What can I even say about Game 4? If you’re a Knicks fan, it was the most exciting game in NBA history. If you’re rooting for the Spurs… well… the first half was a ton of fun. New York rallied from a 29-point deficit to cap off the largest comeback in NBA Finals history, pulling within one win of their first NBA championship since 1973.

In a moment that’ll live forever in NBA history, OG Anunoby tipped in Jalen Bruson’s missed three-pointer with 1.2 seconds remaining, cementing his status as a Knicks legend. Drinks are on the city of New York in perpetuity, OG.
