The New York Knicks took command in overtime and beat the Bulls in Chicago, 128-120, on Wednesday night.
This is just a postgame thread, so I don’t want to talk about the brutal end of regulation — let’s just say it was a cavalcade of DeMar DeRozan free throws and terrible Julius Randle decisions on offense.
But the Knicks are clearly better than the Bulls, and once they figured out who should have the ball in his hands in the clutch (hint: it’s Jalen Brunson), they handled Chicago fairly convincingly in bonus time.
It started with the defense.
