Julius Randle was great for the Knicks. Donte DiVincenzo was great for the Knicks.
But this was the type of game they brought Karl-Anthony Towns in for.
Spursโ path was a 7th-place Blazers team, then a Minnesota team without Donte and Ant Edwards nursing a hyperextended knee, and then they got the OKC Thunder without JDub and Ajay Mitchell. But yep, the Knicks had the easy path because they just happened to beat everyone by 40 points per game, lol.
โThe Pistons beat the Knicks in the regular season, so they couldโve beaten them in the playoffs. It doesnโt matter that the Knicks beat the Spurs in the regular season. That doesnโt count.โ
