After the Indiana Pacers’ win in Game 1, it was easy to forget the New York Knicks made the Eastern Conference finals with some epic comebacks of their own. They provided a reminder on Sunday, and breathed some life into their season in process.
New York trailed by as many as 20 points in Game 3, but roared back in the second half to notch a 106-100 win and avoid a 3-0 hole. With the series now 2-1, Game 4 is scheduled for Tuesday at Indiana (8 p.m. ET, TNT).

It took one of the best performances of Karl-Anthony Towns’ career to get there. Towns entered the fourth quarter with only four points to his name, then reeled off 20 points in the final 12 minutes to stun Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
That was the most fourth-quarter playoff points for a Knicks player in the play-by-play era (since 1997).
New York needed that firepower from Towns with Jalen Brunson battling foul trouble for the entire second half.
It was the third 20-point comeback for the Knicks in these playoffs and a record sixth for the league overall. New York got their first two in Games 1 and 2 of last round against the Boston Celtics.

If there is reason for comfort for the Pacers, it’s that they have twice been in this position before. In this postseason, they are 6-0 in Games 1 and 2, 0-3 in Game 3s and 4-0 in Games 4 and 5. They’ll try to continue that trend Tuesday.
This article will be updated with more information.

Patnáctá výhra v Paříži v řadě! Nebojácná Tereza zvládla taneček přes francouzské peklo
Paříž (od našeho zpravodaje) - Město zaslíbené. V součtu s loňským juniorským grandslamem, kde ovládla singl i debl, vyhrála tenistka Sparty na antukových kurtech French Open v Paříži celkem 15 utkání v řadě! Letos do sbírky přidala tři kvalifikační zápasy a navrch ubojovanou první rundu.„Hustý. To se mi líbí. Asi je osud, že jsem v Paříži loni vyhrála juniorky a letos je to můj první dospělý grandslam. To je takové hezké,“ hlásila vítězka, které ale při zápase moc do zpěvu nebylo.„Byla jsem trošku mimo. Celý zápas jsem cítila, že mě divně bolí břicho. I koučovi prý bylo hrozně. Jen tátovi ne, ten prý byl v klidu. Hrát v takovém prostředí nebylo vůbec příjemné. Hodně na hlavu i na nervy, takže mi z toho asi pracoval i žaludek.“Jak už říkal dvojnásobný vítěz French Open Jan Kodeš: „Nastoupit ve Francii proti domácím hráčům je vždycky veliké utrpení.“ Valentová se ale držela statečně, nešťastný scénář si odmítala připustit, […]
Rousek končí v zámoří a míří do Evropy
Šestadvacetiletý Rousek po odchodu do USA ze Sparty odehrál v NHL sedmnáct zápasů, většinou působil v AHL ve farmářském Rochesteru. V minulé sezoně byl Rousek třetím nejproduktivnějším hráčem týmu, v 79 zápasech včetně play off nasbíral 50 bodů včetně devíti gólů. V NHL má ze 17 startů bilanci 1+3.Ve švédském klubu z Jönköpingu podepsal smlouvu na dva roky. „Švédská liga má vysokou úroveň a vím, že Jönköping je hokejem poblázněné město. Bude to zábava a velká výzva,“ řekl. V celku HV 71 v minulé sezoně působil jiný český útočník Radan Lenc, ale rozhodl se vrátit do Liberce.
