New York KnicksvsCleveland Cavaliers
NY 121/CLE 108
Things to say
Knicks beat the Cavs 121-108 in Cleveland.
01
Knicks went into Cleveland and just took it, 121-108. Brunson was cooking from the jump. Cavs never really had an answer.
02
key player
Brunson dropped 30 and made it look easy. Dude's just built different in road games.
03
hot take
Cleveland's gotta stop pretending they're contenders if Mobley's their leading scorer with 24.
04
deep cut
Karl-Anthony Towns led the team in dimes with 7. A seven-footer running point, that's the Knicks' whole identity right there.
05
exit
Anyway, we'll see if Cleveland can bounce back next one. East is wide open.
The recap
Knicks went into Cleveland and straight-up took it, 121-108, with Brunson putting on an absolute clinic for 30. Mobley did what he could with 24 and Allen cleaned the glass, but nobody on the Cavs had an answer once Brunson got downhill.
Towns chipping in 7 dimes was the quiet killer — when he's playmaking like that, the Knicks are a nightmare. Cavs took the L on their own floor and now they're staring up at New York in the standings.
