In today's New York Knicks home game against the Indiana Pacers, the Knicks once trailed by 12 points after Brunson left the game with an injury, and in the second half, Brunson played a single quarter of 36-18 in the third quarter to overtake the score, and successfully maintained the lead in the fourth quarter, and finally defeated the Pacers 130-121, and the home court took another city, leading 2-0!

In this game, Brunson scored 24 points in the second half to lead the team to complete the reversal after returning quickly in the second half, which was a major contributor to the Knicks' ability to reverse the game. But before Brunson returned from injury, the reason why the Knicks were not pulled away by the Pacers on the court was because the Warriors veteran DiVincenzo stepped up, he hit 6 three-pointers and scored 28 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists.

So far in the playoffs, DiVincenzo has averaged 16.7 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game, hitting three three-pointers per game, and shooting more than 40% from three-point range, the team's third-highest scoring point. However, DiVincenzo's contribution to the team is not limited to the offensive end, his performance on the defensive end is also bright enough, averaging 1 steal and 1.1 blocks per game, and in the playoffs, whether it is defending Maxey in the first round or Haliburton in the second round, he has a good effect!

And such a perfect 3D player in line with contemporary basketball, with an annual salary of only $10.9 million this season, such a performance of $30 million annual salary is not too much! Here I want to ask the Warriors, do you regret it? With such an excellent 3-and-D player, you let the Knicks snatch it away with a four-year, $50 million contract, leaving Klay Thompson and Wiggins, who are in serious decline, and ultimately can't make the playoffs this season. Knicks fans also asked rhetorically: How did we get him!
