The New York Knicks won against the Philadelphia 76ers, 112-103. They had their full starting lineup, which led to a faster start than game one.
The standout of the day was pace. The Knicks repeatedly turned made Sixers baskets into fast breaks down the other end, with Jalen Brunson, Mikal Bridges, and even Mitch Robinson capitalizing. Mike Brown experimented with some combinations of starters and bench players, showing more lineup diversity than Tom Thibodeau did last season.
I left a few players out of the last recap, who deserved mention. So, I’ll focus on those guys, but I'll also mix in as many standouts as I can fit. There were a lot!
