The Knicks were presented with an opportunity to pit their league-leading defense against one of the most proficient offensive units in the NBA Sunday afternoon, a test of contrasting styles.
The outcome this time showed the Clippers' offense is better than the Knicks' defense.
Unable to stop the Clippers' offense the Knicks (9-12) still managed to hang in by putting on one of their best offensive displays for much of the day.
