In a game where defense took center stage, the Knicks showcased their prowess by holding the Nuggets to a mere 84 points. This remarkable feat becomes even more impressive when you consider that the Nuggets are one of the best teams in the NBA. The Knicks defied the odds as they won outright as a two-point home underdog inside the iconic MSG.

The star of the night was Julius Randle, combined with Jalen Brunson’s 21 points, proved to be a winning combination. Brunson and Randle continue to shine together for the Knicks. 

However, it’s the Knicks’ commitment to their defensive game that has been their calling card under the guidance of head coach Tom Thibodeau. While superstars like Nikola Jokic were still able to make their mark with 31 points, the Knicks managed to stifle key players like Jamal Murray, who was held to just nine points, and Aaron Gordon, who contributed only 12 points. This defensive excellence was a crucial factor in their impressive win.

The victory over the Nuggets was not just a win; it was a statement. It’s the kind of performance that makes players around the league take notice and wonder what’s happening in the Garden. The Knicks are starting to find their rhythm, and it’s an exciting time for fans of the team.
