Kevin Knox didn’t want to talk about his offense. He didn’t want to discuss his aggressiveness going to the basket or his accurate 3-point shooting.
A season-best 19 points against the Eastern Conference-leading Bucks wasn’t significant to the second-year wing.

“I think I’ve been playing well, because I played better defensively,” Knox said after his three-block, two-steal effort in a 123-102 loss on Saturday night. “That’s just carrying over to my offense. That’s been my mentality the last few games, just really focusing on the defensive end, letting the offense come to me.
