On May 1st, the New York Knicks just delivered their biggest playoff win ever, smashing the Atlanta Hawks 140-89 in Game 6. To close out the series, OG A new NOHB dropped 29 points in just 27 minutes, while Carl Anthony Townes notched his second triple double of the playoffs. With 12 points, 11 boards, and 10 assists. By half time, the Knicks had already shattered records, jumping out to a 40-15 lead after the first quarter, the largest in the shot clock, era, and a 47-point half-time bulge, the biggest ever in NBA playoffs. This was New York's third win in a row after dropping two tight ones early. Players on both sides felt the weight of it. Townes praised the team's bounce back spirit, saying they stepped up when down in the series. Meanwhile, a scuffle led to ejections for Atlanta's Dyson Daniels and Knicks Big Man Mitchell Robinson after the lead hit 50 in the second quarter. No, no, no, no.

Be lit up the first half with 26 points, Mikhail Bridges added 24, and the Knicks starter sat with over two minutes left in. The third, the Hawks shot ice cold, hitting just 12-39 in the first half with 14 turnovers. Now the Knicks roll into the Eastern Conference semis, against whoever wins between the Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers, locked and, loaded after that statement, beat down.
