Knicks fans at JFK Airport go wild as New York completes largest comeback in NBA Finals history
The New York Knicks complete a 29-point comeback, the largest in NBA Finals history, to take a 3-1 series lead over the San Antonio Spurs.
Perhaps more stunning than the New York Knicks' actual comeback Wednesday night was where the best watch-party in the city took place.
Terminal 8 of JFK Airport.
New York rallied from 29 points down to shock the San Antonio Spurs in Game 4 of the NBA Finals, inching closer to its first NBA title since 1973. The winning moment came at the fingertip of OG Anunoby, whose tip-in off a missed Jalen Brunson three-pointer sent Madison Square Garden into an absolute frenzy.
The Knicks won, 107-106, pulling off the largest comeback in NBA Finals history.

The scene in MSG was insane. It was pandemonium outside the arena and throughout the streets of New York City.
But what took place at JFK Airport was perhaps the best of all:
Yep, that takes the cake for me. I don't even like the NBA, but I could watch that video all day long. It's why we watch sports, frankly. For moments like that.
One minute, you're sitting at the gate, waiting to board what I assume will be another miserable flight. The next, you're watching the greatest comeback in NBA Finals history with a bunch of random people, and going absolutely nuts.
