Multiple outlets discuss a short, decisive sequence in NBA history that became known as the “Right hand from God.” The coverage focuses on a pivotal moment in Game 4 between the New York Knicks and the San Antonio Spurs, where the Knicks’ fate is described as swinging on actions that unfold over roughly 4.5 seconds. PBS frames the moment as part of the Knicks’ long wait for a championship, emphasizing how a brief play can alter the outcome of a playoff game and shape team legacy.
Winnipeg Free Press also highlights the same nickname and play length, treating the sequence as a defining episode that earns a lasting place in Knicks lore. The Reddit Sports submission similarly points readers to an Associated Press breakdown of the final sequence, focusing on the play-by-play progression leading to the final result.
Across sources, the common theme is that the game turns on a final rush of actions in the late stage of Game 4, culminating in a shot or finishing play that fans later memorialize with the “Right hand from God” nickname.
