Well, that was...educational.
You youngbloods who haven’t watched much (if any) Knicks playoffs basketball needed to learn the lesson, I suppose: Knicks playoff basketball is mostly torture.
Our guys played the Atlanta Hawks tough in Game 1 despite Julius Randle playing perhaps his worst game of the season. They held a lead for most of the fourth quarter, though they could never extend it beyond 4-5 points. That set up Trae Young — he of the haircut that looks like lumberjack pubes — to be the hero. Trae did what Trae does: hit some big shots and draw some bullshit fouls.
