With 28.2 seconds left in the fourth quarter of Game 5, the Knicks held a six-point lead over the 76ers. They appeared to be on their way to the Eastern Conference semifinals for the second consecutive season.

Then, Tyrese Maxey turned into a magician, making New York's advantage disappear with multiple clutch shots, including a 35-foot bomb that sent the game to overtime. The All-Star guard finished with a playoff career-high 46 points in Philadelphia's thrilling 112-106 win.

"Just find a way to survive. Season's on the line," Maxey said. "I just know I trust my work. I trust what I've done all my life. Just try to get to a spot and raise up and knock a shot down."

The Knicks missed a golden opportunity to close out the series, but they still hold a 3-2 lead heading into Thursday night's Game 6. Can they shake off the sting of that loss and shut the door on the Sixers? Or will Philly stay alive?
