Christmas Day 1985

Relive the game that rookie Patrick Ewing brought the Knicks back against the Boston Celtics.

this was the first basketball game i ever went to and still the best. Trent Tucker shot a 3 at the buzzer to send it to double overtime.

I worked Airport Security at LaGuardia and after the game, I saw the Celtics team come through the security gate. So I asked Kevin McHale, "So who won? (Knowing they got beat already). He said, Knicks Double OT. I smiled :) Great Memory!
