Game 4: Postgame

Knicks 107, Spurs 106

Q. How did you feel the energy here in MSG transforming from halftime to now?

MIKAL BRIDGES: It was great. It was loud, especially when we made that run. It was unbelievable.

Q. What was said at halftime to kind of light that spark and for you guys to come out the way you did in the third quarter?

MIKAL BRIDGES: We've been here before. We've been down a lot before. You just have to take one possession at a time. You can't get it back at once. We kept fighting.

Q. What was the turning point?

MIKAL BRIDGES: The second half, getting stops. I think they scored 30 points in the second half. That's just defense. Getting stops, and the offense is going to go off that.

Q. What was it about the defense that kind of clicked in the second half?

MIKAL BRIDGES: Just everybody being more physical, everybody talking to each other and helping each other. I think that's the biggest thing, having five guys on a string.

Q. I know overall you believe that you can come back, but when did you really start believing?

MIKAL BRIDGES: Always. No matter what happens, even the score, we're going to keep fighting. We know the guys we have here are going to keep fighting no matter what. We're relentless.

Q. Question about OG Anunoby’s game-winning tip-in.

Unbelievable. He’s different, man. I'm happy he’s on my team.
