What a game! In an end-to-end thriller the New York Knicks sneak away with the victory over the Philadelphia 76ers.
Before we get into the game, it’s important to note that the game was played on Martin Luther King Day, celebrating the life of a man who made his mark in America for his leadership during the Civil Rights Movement. His bravery to fight the social norms of the time, of which racial inequality was prevalent, started the shift in people’s’ minds on how to treat their fellow man. The NBA makes a point every year to give tribute to his life and impact, and the Knicks even featured his famous “I Have A Dream” speech with the help of the on-court animations.
