Knicks wrap it up against the shorthanded but defensively scrappy Magic squad. A good defense can always stay within striking distance but we matched defensive energy and just had more weapons than they did. Good to see us come out of a break with that kind of focus on the road.

Now, onto the administrative point.

Derailments to former (active) Knick players will result in suspensions. Around the NBA is the correct thread to discuss these players.

We're gonna have a quick trigger on this until things settle. Please report posts of this nature instead of responding to avoid being swept up in the derailment. We'll get to them when one of us is around to do so.

Can barely beat a depleted Magic.


Yay

This was crazy to me- I felt the same way

Yo there are so many Knicks fans at the game

If the Knicks face the Magic in the playoffs, we will have homecourt advantage every game

Another beast performance- especially considering the foul trouble he had..

MVP chants for Brunson as he left the court

really glad we caught these guys without their 2 best players already. they gone be tough when they fully healthy

Suggs had a few dirty plays. And he's balding at 23.

That Orlando team is #1 defensively I believe...
Big win IMO...

on edit: confirmed to be #3 defensively in the nba...

Great win, had KAT getting the last rebound at the buzzer in his 43rd minute of an out of reach game

Depleted Magic team had KCP with the most minutes (33) of anyone on the team. That would have tied Josh Hart for the lowest total amongst Knicks starters.

The fact the Jalen dropped 31 and played the way he did- is amazing to me...Suggs is an animal on D!

I keep saying it but I want to see us feed the KAT down low more often when teams turn the defensive clamps up on us. I think he's incredibly tough to guard, back to the basket. Especially with his passing.

Think the Magic won like 10 in a row at home. We walked into their house and smacked them.
