Knicks have the talent, but they're not committed at the defensive end and they lack team chemistry. While Boston plays very well together.
A Holiday injury could be significant, but Boston has two players that can physically impose their will and get high percentage shots whenever they want. And 1-5 they can make life very hard for Brunson.
But you have to believe Brunson will get his, he finds a way. KAT should have a better series going against Horford and Porzingis. OG needs to stay aggressive offensively and be a normal demon on defense. Mikal chips in a solid effort on both ends... Knicks in 7.
