NBA: Cleveland Cavaliers Beat New York Knicks In Close Thriller
Tom Thibodeau's team clinched the third seed on the final day of the regular season, despite a disappointing loss to the Cavaliers on Friday night, with a score of 108-102. This result secured a first-round matchup with the Pistons, thanks to outcomes from other games across the NBA. With OG Anunoby, Mitchell Robinson, and Josh Hart returning after one-game absences, the Knicks squandered an early 23-point lead against Cleveland. They struggled with their shooting and were exposed defensively by Darius Garland. The disappointing finish left Thibodeau frustrated. The Knicks ended the season with a record of 0-10 against the top three teams in the NBA—Cleveland, Boston, and Oklahoma City—a statistic that highlights their struggles this season. Ultimately, the Knicks will finish with 51 wins—one more than last season—but they are currently on a three-game losing streak as they head into Sunday라이브 바카라 finale against the Nets.
