Heroes and zeros from the Knicks’ 108-94 Game 3 win over the 76ers on Friday night in Philly.
In the building he enjoyed so many memorable moments as a college star at Villanova, Jalen Brunson added another one. He was terrific after a slow start, finishing with 32 points and nine assists. Brunson also added five rebounds and scored eight fourth-quarter points.
With Karl-Anthony Towns limited due to foul trouble, Brunson’s best was needed, and he delivered it.
Paul George started hot, then disappeared. The 76ers wing scored 15 first-quarter points, but zero the rest of the way. He was invisible when Philadelphia needed so much more out of the nine-time All-Star.
That is now four straight strong playoff performances by Mikal Bridges. He helped shut down George after his hot start and continues to make shots, shooting 8-of-14 from the field and scoring 23 points.
Over the last four games, Bridges is averaging 20.5 points on an incredible 72.3 percent shooting.
25.8 – The Knicks’ average margin of victory during their current six-game playoff winning streak.
“They’re resilient, they’ve been through a lot as a veteran group, and it showed tonight,”
— Mike Brown as the Knicks rallied from an early 12-point deficit.
