have answered the eight nothing Cavs run a cord. He took it away from Tyson and a cutting. Towns with the reverse jam and you know I love it when they’re moving and grooving and towns the beneficiary. Steel Allen got a hand in there to race to the cup with a blocked at the rim. The Cavaliers among the leaders in their defensive prows because of that man Moy top 10 of the NBA last year. Yep. And Anobi steps back and gets two. Mobley off the hesitation takes Yu Sley to the rim. But good defense from the Frenchman. Yeah, but you mentioned Mo made his first shot. He’s missed his last four. Brunson showing off the handle taking the secondyear man to the cuff in a left hand layer. Now Tyson has the bigger Jameson on him, but Bridges reaches in for the steal. Sprinting up court and a lay it home. And they’re looking for this to be a breakout season for him as well. Look at the dancing in Prancing by Bridges. He’s feeling it. That’s a three-point play opportunity. Six. And right here, dancing and prancing when we return to plate nine. Long rebound comes to Towns off the pump. Here he comes. Cat two ill advised fouls of being relegated to the bench. Hustling and musling. But it’s great to see you. Congratulations and good luck on the season. He averaged a career-high 18 and a half last year. He’s got 16 already. That’s what a ball can do, folks. He’s an orchestrator. McBride hits a three. And the Knicks right again. [Applause] Eight-point Nick lead. Anovi launches and connects from three. Brunson right back on the attack. Nifty finish through traffic and the Knicks have a little five nothing run. They’re back up 12. That was actually a foul on Sam Merrill. So just still two on Mobbley and Anobi in the corner. Knocks down a three. Marked by Allen. Triple hand off to McBride. John Clarkson rifing inside. Hands to Towns. Hangs in the air and scores. Van [Music] when you penetrate good things happen. Clarkson dishing off to Town. So he’s at the line for Town. steps back, shows the ball to Mobley. Only four to shoot, puts it on the deck, step through a move, gets it to go. 12 nothing Nick R. Towns using and abusing the defensive player of the year. And a steal from McBride ahead of the pack to Clarkson down the lane and a two-hand jam. Nick defense now taking it away from Mitchell who had run a muck and then the slam by Clarkson. And then Nick mentioned Anenobi 12 rebounds only had one doubledigit rebound a game last year. Mitchell lost it. And Anobi on his horse hands to Bridges and he sky it to the rim.
