Twice in the a three-day span, Tom Thibodeau and Jalen Brunson echoed the need for the Knicks to finish strong. That message was received, loud and clear.
ATLANTA — Twice in the a three-day span, Tom Thibodeau and Jalen Brunson echoed the need for the Knicks to finish strong.
Now, the Knicks will head into a nine-day layoff not only having won five of their last six games, but also in sole possession of the sixth seed in the Eastern Conference and with defensive linchpin Mitchell Robinson nearing his return from a fractured right thumb. Jalen Brunson, who scored a game-high 28 pionts, goes up for a shot during the Knicks’ 122-101 win over the Hawks.USA TODAY Sports
The third quarter was by far the Hawks’ best. They played with energy at both ends of the floor and cut down on Brunson’s looks below the 3-point arc. Young got going, scoring 10 points in the period, but Atlanta only trimmed seven points off the Knicks’ large lead. Twice in the third, Randle stopped runs with offensive rebounds and baskets. On another occasion, Brunson went sprinting in the other direction before the Hawks could set up their defense for a three-point play.
