Knicks beat Blazers in matinee game

The New York Knicks capitalized on the fatigue shown by the Portland Trail Blazers getting the win, 110-99, in a matinee meeting at the Madison Square Garden Saturday. Elfrid Payton dropped a team-high 22 points. Julius Randle got 20 points plus 11 rebounds. RJ Barrett had 18 points and Alec Burks had 16 points in a balanced offensive effort paired with effective defense in long stretches of the 2020-21 NBA Regular Season tilt.
One individual familiar with the coaching staffโ€™s thinking said Thibodeau still senses Bullock, Toppin and Burks provide โ€œmore energyโ€ than Knox has recently, though no data exists to back that up. One of Knoxโ€™s issues coming out of Kentucky was a low motor, but he had competed harder this season. Thibodeau recently commended Knoxโ€™s shot selection โ€“ feeling last season he launched a lot of ill-advised attempts. For his part, Knox said recently he needed to attack the rim more and not rely solely on 3s.
