Knicks needed to beat down lowly Wizards twice in uneven victory
NY Post
The Knicks needed a win so badly Saturday night that they sort of beat the Wizards twice.
The electric second-quarter shooting of Mikal Bridges and significant contributions from some unlikely sources helped the Knicks build a 33-point second-half lead against the NBA’s worst team.
Game over, right? Not quite.
Imagine the nerves in Madison Square Garden when it was a four-point game with 10 minutes left for the Wizards to complete a historic comeback.
Instead, the Knicks reawakened at both ends of the court and went back into cruise control on the way to snapping a two-game losing streak with a 122-103 victory.
“It was four? I didn’t know that,” a surprised Karl-Anthony Towns said after finishing with 31 points and 11 rebounds. “We can’t have those nights — those moments where we play a great first half and then we act like teams are just going to give us the win. This is the NBA, guys.”
