Oh my god, New York looks crazy.

**Jay Shetty** (2:11)
I was at game four. Oh, okay. MSG, 29 points down.
How do you remember that night?

**Karl-Anthony Towns** (2:18)
Well, I appreciate you staying in your seat.
It was a tough game, but I remember that night just, I remember looking at Jordan, my fiancee, and just telling her before the game, I feel really good about tonight. And I had a really good energy about it. I felt really good about our team. We lost game three in a heartbreaking fashion. I felt really good about us responding. I saw the shoot around, we looked very focused, prepared.
You know, I felt really good going into game four. Obviously, it did not look good until halftime. I remember looking at Jordan, I was like, maybe I was wrong in the game. And you know, at halftime, just rallying the troops, telling them, you know, we've done this before. Experience teaches you a lot in life. And you know, a lot of times when you're young, you always see people who are older than you, people who are elders and who have had experiences. And you say, well, that was yours, that's not mine. You know, you realize we're all a lot alike. And I was just leaning on that experience of last year against Boston, coming back multiple times by 20 at their house. I was telling our guys, like, think about it, we've been in this situation before at an opponent's house. We got our fans behind us, and we have a chance to still swing for the fences and trust our experience. And we found a way to get the job done. I'll never forget OG tipping the ball back in, because the right hand of God, man.

**Jay Shetty** (3:36)
Was it a relief seeing him do that? Or was that like, no, it sounds like...

**Karl-Anthony Towns** (3:39)
Well, if you watched the game, he tipped it in. I was ready to dunk it. So we had two offensive rebounds ready to happen. And OG, man, he's just special. He's always been special. And I always tell him even games not go in his way. OG and Anobio always in the fourth quarter finds a way to make his presence known. And he did exactly that.

**Jay Shetty** (3:56)
But when you were saying that at half time, were you saying that to each player, looking them in the eyes?

**Karl-Anthony Towns** (4:00)
When you're in the huddle, you get in the locker room and just speaking out loud and everyone's just looking at me and just talking, just understanding the situation is we're down 29 plus points, down 25 plus points, 29 points. It can't get any worse. And at the end of the day, we had the experience of being down 24, I believe, in Boston and coming all the way back and getting the game. So it's going to take that one special play at the end to win the game. Because once you fight back, you still got to make that one play. Last year, both games was Michael Bridges getting a stop, getting a steal.
