Hawks vs Knicks: Paint Protection & Rebounding Key
Description
The Atlanta Hawks, without Trae Young, face the New York Knicks in the first round of the playoffs. The Knicks, boosted by stars like Karl-Anthony Towns and Jalen Brunson, dominated the regular season series, outrebounding and outscoring the Hawks in the paint and off turnovers. Towns and Brunson were particularly effective, with Towns averaging nearly 29 points and 14 rebounds, and Brunson dropping 29 points per game. Hawks coach Quin Snyder must scheme around Towns pick-and-rolls and Brunsons downhill attacks, while improving rebounding and paint protection to have a chance in this series.
