15 points of reversal! Big dark horse won 9 consecutive victories! Brunson scored 40 points, and the pattern of the East changed abruptly

On February 2, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued, and the Knicks played at home against the Pacers. In this game, the Pacers came up to take the lead and once established a 15-point lead, but then the Knicks launched a counterattack, successfully caught up with the score, and successfully overtook the score in the final quarter, and withstood the Pacers' offense. In the end, the Knicks reversed the Pacers 109-105 and won nine in a row.

The Knicks' momentum has been very hot lately, and after the trade to get Anunoby, the team has skyrocketed. Despite the absence of Randle and Anunoby, their momentum is still hot, and this time against the Pacers at home, even if they are 15 points behind, they can still complete the comeback, which also shows their resilience, which has changed from before, and once the lineup is full, the strength is still very good.

This time, the Pacers also had some regrets, failed to seize the opportunity, and the team also had 6 double-doubles, Haliburton has not recovered his form after his return, contributing 15 points and 5 assists. Siakam had 18 points and 7 rebounds, but unfortunately the team's overall performance was not good, and the team hit 13 three-pointers, and it was clear that the Knicks' defense caused them a lot of problems, giving the Pacers 13 turnovers.

The Knicks have become the biggest dark horse in recent times, becoming the hottest team in the East, completely unstoppable rhythm, and have come to the third place in the East after winning 9 consecutive wins, and they are half a win away from the second Bucks. This time, Brunson still played well, scoring a game-high 40 points on 15-of-30 shooting, and he was also selected to the All-Star bench lineup, which is well deserved. In addition, DiVincenzo also had 20 points and Achiuwa had 12 points and 16 rebounds.

With the sudden rise of the Knicks, the Eastern landscape has also changed, and the Celtics, Bucks and 76ers originally occupied the top three positions, but now the Knicks have successfully disrupted the situation halfway. Now that the 76ers Embiid is injured, they may fall out, and the Knicks have a chance to stretch the advantage in one go, and if they can finish in third place, then they will still have something to look forward to in the playoffs.
