CJ McCollum stuns Knicks in Game 2
The Knicks blew a 12-point fourth-quarter lead in front of a stunned Madison Square Garden crowd as McCollum took over in the closing minutes.
Despite missing two free throws late, McCollum's go-ahead shot with 33 seconds remaining proved to be the difference.
The loss has sparked criticism of Knicks coach Mike Brown's substitution patterns and the team's inability to close out games.
The series now moves to Atlanta with the Hawks having successfully stolen home-court advantage.
