History

Historical Context

On Dec 21 1996 the Utah Jazz erased a 36-point hole to beat the Denver Nuggets, a feat that foreshadowed the Jazz’s 1996-97 surge to a franchise-record 64 wins and a first NBA Finals appearance, while the Knicks’ similar 29-point comeback highlighted a league-wide shift toward greater late-game strategic depth in the NBA during that era.
