New York, NY (PSF) - With the Miami Heat beating the Milwaukee Bucks, the New York Knicks went from versing the best regular season team in the NBA in the second round to a team that is much more even skilled with the Knicks. While the Heat are a lower seed, they are a very scary team to verse that is led by Jimmy Butler. Unlike the series against the Cavaliers, the Knicks dropped Game 1 to the Heat. For the Heat, Jimmy Butler had a great game going 8/16 from the field and dropping 25 points. For the Knicks, Brunson didn’t shoot the best from three going 0/7 but did have 25 points going 11/23 from the field. A major factor that did play into this game was the ankle injury of Julius Randle that kept him out of the game. Knicks fans hope that Randle can suit back up for Game 2 in what looks like a must win game for the Knicks in this Eastern Conference Semifinals series.
