What we learned from the second Spurs win over the Knicks
After laying a dud against the Detroit Pistons in their final game of 2017, game #38 saw the Spurs head into Madison Square Garden to take on the perennial rebuilding New York Knicks.

The pair combined for 54 points and anchored their team defensively, as the Spurs walked out of the storied MSG arena with their first victory in 2018. After such an embarrassing night against the Pistons, it has to be a huge boost for this team to walk into a road matchup and execute at a high level. Here are a few takeaways from the Silver and Black’s bounce-back performance.
