With Wilson Chandler scoring a season-high 26 points and Danilo Gallinari adding 21 and a huge block in the closing seconds, the New York Knicks found their way to win another game and beat the Charlotte Bobcats 98-94 on Sunday night.
“You work every day on everything, not just on your offense,” Gallinari said. “I think we are definitely playing better. We are playing I think really good defense (for) 48 minutes.”’’
David Lee finished with 15 points and 15 rebounds for the Knicks, who won for the sixth time in eight games. They would have had another victory in that stretch, but they were outscored 15-2 over the last 2:33 of a 94-87 loss at Charlotte on Tuesday night.
Chandler and Gallinari wouldn’t let the Knicks blow this one, both hitting big 3-pointers in the final quarter. But Gallinari’s biggest play came on the other end, when he blocked a layup by the point guard in rival team’s NBA jersey with 4.9 seconds left and New York up by two.
Starting the season at 1-9, the Knicks now have improved to 10-17 and won both games on a five-game homestand by limiting their opponent below 100 points for the seventh straight game.
