The Celtics found themselves down by 19 points at halftime to the Knicks in New York on Tuesday night after giving up 72 points in the first half.
However, the C's stormed back behind an incredible effort from Paul Pierce. The halftime deficit turned out to be too much to overcome, though, as the Knicks escaped with the win.
It would have been a nice win for the Celtics at the end of a road trip, but it's a rare setback in what's been a highly successful second half of the season. Meanwhile, the Knicks are hoping they can build momentum after an up-and-down second half of the season.
