Game Thread: New York Knicks at Los Angeles Clippers - 5/9/21 3:30PM

I think the Knicks can get this one - it'd clinch a .500 road trip ..
Miami is making a move - and Boston is crumbling right now.

Rossssseeeee !!!

Gotta keep attacking. We?re going against Kawhi, PG3, Cousins, Rondo, can?t give these guys an inch or they will make us regret it.

His name is Reggie Bullock!
Bullock has 22 pts 5-11 from the 3-Ball line

True. Drose and Bullock carrying us here RJ with another 3 let?s try to hold this lead down the stretch defense has held up so far knock on wood.

 

[htr10]

Not loving iso-Randle trying to close out this game.

 

[Kiyaman]

Thibs Knicks DEFENSE has the best 3-ball shooting team (Clippers) shooting 33% from the 3-ball line

 

[htr10]

Well, it worked that time. Great job by Randle to get the baseline against Batum and knock down the jumper.

 

[jimkcchief88]

Knicks up by 8; 1:05 to go

 

[rady]

Randle with th ejumpshot, Knicks up 100- 82 1;05 left

 

[htr10]

Randle clutch. Back to back big shots. But then RJ fouls Kawhi shooting a 3? C?mon.

 

[rady]

Randle again!

 

[jimkcchief88]

JR with the dagger but RJ stupid foul gives Clippers three free throws and stops the clock

 

[htr10]

Gotta hit our FTs.

 

[rady]

This looking to turn into a huge, huge win!

 

[htr10]

I?ll tell you something. Knicks putting on a clinic with passing to kill clock and avoid the intentional foul.

 

[rady]

104-100, 6.5 on the clock, Gibson to shoot 2

 

[htr10]

Clutch FTs from Taj. 6 point lead with 6.5 seconds to go. Just don?t do anything stupid.

 

[htr10]

Wow. Just wow. Can?t overstate how big a win this was. First time Knicks win on road against Clippers in over 10 years.

 

[rady]

106-100, Clips will probably go for a final push but this is Win 38th

 

[htr10]

Knicks with a 3 game lead over 7th seed Boston with 4 games to go. I believe our magic number is 1 to avoid the play-in and clinch a playoff spot.

Best win of season! Who would?ve thunk it, huh. Already, a winning road trip! At worst, we split and head home 3-3.

4 games remain. BOS 3 back, MIA/ATL 1 back. Wow!!!
