On April 28th, 1990 the Boston Celtics routed the New York Knicks in Game 2 of their first round playoff matchup, 157-128. The 157 points is the most points scored by one team in a single playoff game. The 285 combined points between them is tied for 3rd in all time highest scoring playoff contests. The Knicks did get the last laugh though. They would come back to win the next three games to advance to the next round.
