Our Reading
The game followed a familiar script.
The Knicks never trailed, and their double-digit wins are piling up. This one felt like a slow start for the Cavs, who couldn’t get anything going from three. Donovan Mitchell and James Harden had decent games, but it wasn’t enough.
The Knicks’ momentum is building, and their average margin of victory is staggering. You can almost sense the excuses already – “we’re just not getting the calls,” or “we’re tired from the long road trip.” But for now, the Knicks are the ones making the noise.
This series is all but over, and the Knicks are the ones who looked like they wanted it more.
The result wasn’t surprising by the end.
