What’s that? You say your favorite NBA team isn’t going to the second round of the 2023 playoffs? Sorry...can’t relate. Our beloved New York Knicks just clinched a first-round series victory for the first time in a decade with a 106-95 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The Game 5 victory was probably the most incredible win of the bunch. No, it wasn’t as close as Game 1, but that’s a testament to the skill and fortitude of this Knicks roster, from top to bottom.
I’m absolutely overwhelmed by the effort this squad put forth Wednesday night. They led pretty much wire-to-wire, while overcoming the loss of Julius Randle, who was injured in the second quarter.
