Details and Personal Analysis
Game that remained close on the scoreboard until the middle of the 3rd quarter, where the Celtics showed the dominance at home, against a few Knicks who did not present greater resistance since that period of time, The Knicks have a young team with a lot of talent, but must join some missing pieces that give balance to the team, by Celtics must climb positions in their conference to position themselves for the first or second playoffs, which is still a long way off but the victories have to be found early.
