14 points in just the fourth quarter of a wild Austin Rivers give the Knicks their fifth win in their first eight games of the season – a start no one would have bet on. Down by 18 points in the first half, the New York team managed to recover taking advantage of the bad night shooting Utah (44% from the field with 18 points from Mitchell and 19 from Clarkson).
The protagonist in the Knicks house was once again Julius Randle – technical leader of a regenerated group under the leadership of Tom Thibodeau. For the former Bulls player it is 30 points, 16 rebounds and 7 assists, in addition to the 22 of an Elfrid Payton with 10/15 shooting and 8 assists. Even if it’s only the beginning of the regular season, the Knicks don’t want to stop dreaming
