LeBron James had 23 points and 12 assists but it was Kyle Korver's 19 fourth-quarter points that sparked the Cleveland Cavaliers' comeback 104-101 NBA win over the New York Knicks.
James also had a technical foul after a first-quarter altercation with Frank Ntilikina and Enes Kanter, which seemed to charge up the Knicks as they built what became a 23-point lead late in the third quarter.
But the Cavaliers made nine three-pointers in the fourth quarter to charge back for their eighth straight victory at Madison Square Garden, with Korver finishing the game with 21 points.
"I knew we had another half," James said.
"Didn't know that I was going to get snatched like that early in the third, but I felt if I got back in I could still make some plays to help our team win."
