The New York Knicks defeated the Indiana Pacers 121-91 in the Battle of Kings Mountain last night. Brunson was like a tiger on the court, slashing 44 points, making the opponent unguardable; Hatten showed his skills in rebounding, especially the astonishing 12 frontcourt rebounds, which is simply a super engineering machine under the basket!
First of all, I have to talk about Brunson, this guy is really full of hands today, and the whole game is like shooting like no one, 35 out of 18, that's really accurate! More than just scoring, his presence on the court was like a magnet, grabbing the attention of all defenders and dishing out seven assists. This kind of all-round performance has to be reminiscent of those big names in basketball history. It was this dominance of his that allowed the Knicks to maintain an overwhelming advantage in the game.
And Hatten, the rebounding monster, was also quite eye-catching tonight. He's not just strong on the defensive end, he's extremely active on both ends of the floor. 12 frontcourt rebounds, that number sounds shocking, he's like a magnet under the basket, and all the rebounds seem to fly to him automatically. This performance is not only an individual glory, but also a boon to the entire team, and his efforts have earned the Knicks more second offensive opportunities.
In addition to these two brave players, the Knicks' team performance can definitely score high. The entire team had just nine turnovers, a world away from the Pacers' 18. It also reflects the Knicks' composure and focus in this crucial game, with every player fighting for victory and leaving no room for the opponent to take advantage of.
The Knicks' bench is also very powerful, and Burks is an absolute X-factor, most of his 18 points come from three-pointers at critical moments, and the three-point efficiency of 5-of-8 shooting is like a hanging. Achiuwa's defensive activity has also contributed greatly to the team's defensive solidity, and his steals and blocks have poured cold water on the opponent's offense.
When it comes to the overall performance of the Knicks, we have to mention their dominance on the inside. The 62 points scored on the inside, almost twice as many as the Pacers, is not only a reflection of individual ability, but also the result of the execution of tactics in place. Every move of the team, every pass, seems to have been carefully designed to make the Pacers unguardable.
After watching such a game, I am not only excited, but also looking forward to the future of the Knicks. With such a strong momentum, can the Knicks make their way to the playoffs? What do you think, fans? Feel free to leave a comment below to discuss and share your views and predictions!

Brunson's high-scoring frenzy and Harden's bucket-like rebounding defense, combined with the team's overall coordination, formed a solid foundation for the victory. In the next games, it is worth keeping an eye on whether the Knicks can maintain this form and continue to go deep in the playoffs.
This game not only gave Knicks fans great hope, but also sent a signal to the entire league that the Knicks are revival. This kind of wonderful performance by the Knicks is the best reward for their hard work throughout the season, and every player deserves to be praised.

In future games, opponents will definitely pay more attention to the Knicks' offensive line, especially the two key players of Brunson and Harden. How to maintain the advantage under the opponent's targeted defense will be the next problem that the Knicks need to solve. In addition, injury management and player fitness will also be important issues in the further stages of the season.
