In a hard-fought defensive battle against the Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday evening, the New York Knicks barely picked up a loss, going sub .500 for the first time in a few weeks. By a score of 101-100, the Knicks once again find themselves wondering what went wrong, as they put forth one of the best defensive performances of the year but simply didn’t have the clutch shooting to get it done down the line.
Ultimately, 76ers small forward Danny Green was the catalyst in their victory, hitting two clutch three-point shots at the end of the game with RJ Barrett in his face.
