Well, it was pretty obvious that this was going to be one of the most exciting series in the first round of the playoffs. And, judging by what we saw in Game 1, we weren’t wrong, as it went down to the wire.

Both Knicks and Hawks finished the season with the very same record and proven to be able to compete at the highest level night in and night out. Hopefully, we’ll get to watch seven games of this.

New York Knicks vs Atlanta Hawks: Storylines

The New York Knicks were 1.9 seconds away from getting this game to overtime and perhaps winning the first of the series. Then, Trae Young split the defense and hit a game-winning floater to completely silence the Garden.

We expect Julius Randle to bounce back from his subpar performance in Game 1, but coach Nate McMillan will continue to put a lot of bodies in front of him, with John Collins, Danillo Gallinari, and Clint Capela all checking the Knicks star.
