It wasn’t a pretty win, but when you’ve dropped five out of your last seven games, a win is more important than grace.
The Knicks bounced back against a Pacers team they struggled with a little under two weeks ago, winning 92-84 to a relieved crowd. The low score reminded fans like P&T’s Unmitigated Gall of a 1990s contest.
The game started off similarly to the one prior to it, with Kemba Walker proving he can still score the basketball, scoring New York’s first eight points. Walker would finish the game with 16 points on 8 for 11 shooting, but most encouraging is how comfortably he got inside, scoring in the paint five times.
