What’s up, dudes? It was a huge upset for Boston, but Knicks fans came out happy! Jeff Loftin from Lost Christmas is with me to talk all about the 1985 Celtics v Knicks Christmas Day game! 

What began as a rout by the Celtics ended in utter defeat, as their tendency to be complacent showed up. The Boston Celtics had a twenty-five point lead at one point during the game. Starters Bird, Ainge, McHale, and DJ had some off shooting, but nailed most of their free throws. Of course, this creates a commanding lead as Ewing was held to just two points for a long while.

Eventually, the Knicks came alive. The end of the third quarter saw them go on a phenomenal run, drastically outscoring Boston. Subsequently, they trounced Boston in the fourth to tie the game and force overtime. In the first, the Celtics held their own and kept it at a tie. The second overtime saw the Knicks defeat their foe 113-104.

Larry Bird? Kind of. Kevin McHale? Sort of. Celtics bench? Nowhere to be found! So grab your jersey, head to the court, and play along to this episode on the 1985 Celtics v Knicks Christmas Day game!
