After taking a series lead against the Detroit Pistons with a Game 3 win, the Knicks will either come back to New York with that lead still intact or the series will be tied again heading into Game 5; that all depends on what happens during this afternoon’s Game 4.
Despite a lack of depth and Detroit’s offense kicking into gear when it mattered most, the Knicks pulled out a 118-116 victory in Thursday Night’s Game 3.
Jalen Brunson was the player the Knicks needed him to be in that game, dropping 30 points and nine assists with just one turnover despite a loud Detroit crowd throwing nasty chants his way.
