“We were struggling with a rather difficult period and one game cannot be enough. We have to constantly strive to improve and grow” Shamet’s words reported by ESPN. He is echoed by Towns, one of the team’s senators: “What did we need? A win. That was the most important thing, finding a way to break the ice and bring one home. We need to find consistency in our performance and bring this kind of intensity, energy and ability to finalize on the court every single night”.

“This was a good step forward for us”, Brunson again told ESPN, “but we have to keep pushing to improve every single day”. The next test, against Philadelphia, will tell whether Knicks are really out of the slump and ready to get back in the running for something important.
