The New York Knicks displayed why they are a great team against Clevland Cavaliers last night
New York Knicks had an offensive master class from its supporting cast last night
Cleveland Cavaliers in the first half had another approach against the New York Knicks and it seemed to have worked. They brought the offensive game through their big men, bringing the Knicks defense to the perimeter and overpowering them with Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen size in the paint.
Clevland Cavaliers kept it close in the first half; they were able to put their energy in guarding Jalen Brunson challenging the other teammates of the Knicks to shoot.
In the second half Cleveland Cavaliers formula didn't work so much, trapping and guarding Jalen Burnson caused the other players to be open. Josh Hart the high scorer for the Knicks went torched earth on the Cavs, he had his career high of 26 points 5-11 three points. Mikal Bridges had 19 points.
Josh Hart who does it all for the Knicks usually is known for his hustling style of play. Josh had confidence during last night's game he was pirouetting to the basket. Sharp shooting threes and was aggressive.
The Knicks right now has too many offensive options you just never know who will step up. The series is Knicks 2 and Cavs 0.
Game 3 will be played in Cleveland, and it will be a must win for them. I am sure they are hoping for a home sweep these next two games. They will have more confidence, and their fans will be there to support them through. Will the Knicks keep finding answers or will the Cavs figure out a different equation.
