Exclusive | Larry David tells The Post he can’t believe he saw Knicks’ Game 4 miracle — he’s ‘supposed to miss games’ like that
Larry David put into words what Jerry Seinfeld’s viral facial expression was saying after OG Anunoby cemented himself in New York sports history and the Knicks pulled off a comeback win in Game 4 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday night.

The “Curb Your Enthusiasm” star and “Seinfeld” co-creator sounded like every other Knicks fan as he talked to The Post’s Mike Vaccaro on Thursday, still trying to process what he saw in the second half as the Knicks mounted a historic comeback against the Spurs to go up 3-1 in the series.
“It was hard for me to believe that I — and I would italicize the ‘I’ if I knew how — that I could witness that,” David said. “I’m supposed to miss games and moments like that. That’s what I was thinking.”
David went viral for his reaction to Josh Hart’s missed layup late in the final quarter, which would have given the Knicks the lead. On Thursday, John McEnroe appeared on ESPN and revealed that David had suggested leaving when the Knicks trailed big.
The actor and writer was still in shock Thursday, telling The Post that “Jack Buck’s words were exactly what I was saying,” referring to the famous call on CBS radio of Dodgers outfielder Kirk Gibson’s iconic walk-off home run in Game 1 of the 1988 World Series.
Anunoby and the Knicks had close to a walk-off moment on Wednesday night when he inbounded the ball to Jalen Brunson with mere seconds on the clock and then made his way down the lane to reach the ball after a missed 3-point attempt, tipping the ball in for the game-winning bucket.
