The New York Knicks extended their playoff winning streak to 10 games with a dominant 121-108 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals. Jalen Brunson's 30-point performance and Mikal Bridges' 22 points pushed the Knicks to the brink of their first NBA Finals appearance since 1999. New York has outscored the Cavaliers by an average of 12.2 points across the series, with both Games 1 and 3 surpassing 218.5 total points. Cleveland's hopes now hang by a thread after trailing by 22 points in the fourth quarter of Game 1.

The 115-104 overtime comeback in Game 1 remains one of the most remarkable rallys in playoff history, with the Knicks overcoming a 22-point deficit. Cleveland center Evan Mobley contributed 24 points and Donovan Mitchell added 23, but the Cavaliers have now lost consecutive home games after starting the playoffs with six straight wins. Historically, Cleveland has been vulnerable in elimination scenarios, having been swept four times in best-of-seven series, most recently by the Warriors in the 2018 Finals.
