Open Extended ReactionsINDIANAPOLIS -- The New York Knicks' season was on the ropes as they entered the final quarter of Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals Sunday night. The home crowd was digging its heels in, enjoying a double-digit Indiana lead that got as high as 20 points in the first half. But then Karl-Anthony Towns -- coming off a highly scrutinized Game 2 showing and a brutal first three quarters Sunday -- came to life and perhaps saved the Knicks' campaign. Two-Way Towns The Pacers scored just seven points with Karl-Anthony Towns as the primary defender after they averaged 19.5 points over the first two games of the series. It was on the following play, 20 seconds of game time later, that Brunson hit the go-ahead basket.
