The Knicks played the Sixers really well in the first half, leading by double digits, and then flubbed it down the stretch and lost.
No, it’s not Nov. 20, it’s Nov. 29. But the Knicks played basically the same game against the Sixers tonight that they played just over a week ago, making them uncomfortable early and taking a 16-point lead in the second quarter (they led by as much as 17 last week) before eventually losing 101-95.
The Knicks started off looking almost unrecognizable on offense. Ball movement! Julius Randle passing a bunch!
