Knicks 102, Hawks 90

Amar'e led the way with 23 points
The Knicks were absolutely fantastic tonight.

They led 26-19 after one and never looked back.

Box Score


5 Players in double figures:

> Amar'e- 23 points, 7 boards, 3 blocks
> Chandler- 20 points, 5 boards
> Gallo- 17 points, 9 boards
> Felton- 13 points, 11 assists
> Fields- 11 points, 9 boards, 5 assists

Amar'e vs. Horford turned into the entire Garden vs. Horford, and almost into Felton vs. Horford with a few minutes to go, after a struggle for position down low.

Horford had trouble keeping his emotions in check throughout the night. At one point late in the fourth he tried to shush the crowd after hitting a shot (the Knicks still led by double digits).

When the Knicks play this cohesively it almost tricks you into thinking this team could be a finished, championship contending product.
 
This is the team you wish they could be every night.
