On Sunday, the Knicks couldn’t hit threes, Immanuel Quickley struggled mightily, and the team lost. On Monday, the Knicks could hit threes, IQ dominated, and the team won. Sometimes it’s just that simple, baby!
But it wasn’t easy. New York was sloppy with the ball in the first half, and the Pacers took advantage, building a slight lead throughout the first two quarters. But IQ, when he’s on, is a game-changer. It was true last season in the NBA, and it remains true today against random youngsters and scrubs. Quickley led the charge with 32 points, and steered the Knicks to the win in the second half.
